Spaghetti with a twist

This is really good and we will definitely be having this a lot!!


Spaghetti Squash with Turkey Meatballs

You will need:

1 large spaghetti squash

1lb ground Turkey

1 jar of your choice of Marinara


Pierce squash with a fork as you would a potato.

Microwave for 12 minutes on high, or bake at 350F for 35-45 minutes. Set to cool.

Cut in half and scoop out the seeds.

Use fork to loosen the squash to create noodles.


Roll Up Turkey into balls (I put a little salt and pepper on top) Bake at 400F for 40 minutes I also put some Marinara on top of the meatballs with about 10 minutes left.


Warm up the Marinara on the stove.


Place Marinara on top of squash and add some meatballs.

While we were in MS we went to playgroup with Kasey and the boys, put up my parent's christmas decorations, did a little shopping, went to see New Moon, and visited with lots of family and friends!!! Here are a few pics from the great week!

9 months old

Brady is 9 months old!!! I can't believe it!! He is growing up sooooooooooooooooo fast!! His 9 month stats are 20 lbs (75th percentile) and 30.5 inches long (95th percentile). Here are some new things that happened over the last month or so.

  • He now has 6 teeth
  • He is crawling everywhere
  • He will pull up to anything and everything
  • He will eat anything
  • wearing size 12 months in clothes
  • Claps his hands for patty cake
  • knows what NO means but either doesn't pay attention to me or gets mad
  • Fake laughs A LOT
  • Is the happiest baby EVER!!
I can't believe that he will be a year old in 3 months!! I really need to get to work on what we are going to do for his birthday!!


This past weekend my mom came to visit. Thursday we went to the Caldwell Zoo and we had a great time! This is actually Brady's second time to go but I didn't take any pictures the first time. Friday we went to mistletoe and magic (christmas shopping extravaganza) and after that went shopping some more!! We stayed gone from 10am until 8pm and Brady was just as happy as can be!! That little boy is a trooper!!

Here are some pics from the zoo.

My little obsession

Wherever I take Brady someone always comments on his hair!! It never fails!! To be totally honest I am quite obsessed with it myself!! I love it and think that he has such beautiful hair!! Like I said in a previous post we never thought our baby would have any hair!! I have also gotten people saying "when are you going to cut his hair?". My answer to that is whenever I think that it is too out of control!!! Which that might be a while!!! I think it is way cute the way it is, even though it is kinda wild somedays!!! I also get a lot "what a cute little girl!" Really?? Are you people serious??? Are you color blind or something??? He's a boy!!! He is wearing blue and green!! There is no pink in sight!!! By the way if and when I have a girl you will definitely know she is a girl!! She will be all decked out in pink, ruffles, and bows!!


A wild hair day!! Love it!!!
