This Week's Rewind

Here's the Rewind:

Our furnace motor went out this past week. Apparently, our unit has a separate filter that we were unaware of. We knew about the hepa filter system attached to the unit, clean the filters on a regular basis. Since the cheap filter was not found until this week, it had been caked so bad (four years of crap), there was no air flow. Hence the burned out motor. Now let's remind people that the temp outside has not been the coolest. It was 9o degrees with a humidity of 98%, dew point 78, making the heat index near 100 degrees. We finally did get the motor replaced by Wednesday afternoon. THANK YOU repairman!

On a brighter note, Adalyn show us she can now do a somersault. Take a look:

She also realized that Mommy has a baby in my tummy. She was giving my belly kisses and hugs. She even tried to tickle the baby after Daddy asked her to tickle her baby brother. How cute is that!

I also tried my hand at canning green beans this week. That means using a pressure canner. We bought one last week at Fleet Farm. I opt to buy the pressure weight canner thinking it would be easier to use and I would not have to worry about calibrating a dial canner in the future. Anyway, I'm now thinking the dial canner is the way I should have gone. Plus I should have practiced with the weight canner before canning the beans. Needless to say, I'm not sure if I canned my beans right. But when you try to push the lids down, they do not move. This means that the jars are sealed, therefore, I canned the bean properly. YEAH!!! I was uncertain for awhile. I don't want to cause my family to get sick after eating some home grown, home cooked food. Now I can explore other foods to can. I have already done salsa & applesauce last year. I cannot wait for apple picking season!

Well, that's the week in rewind. Until next Sunday......

Rewind

I hoping to start a routine of posting a week rewind. This were I can document some highlights of what has happened in the last week.

This past week:

Had a MD appt for baby #2; took my mother-in-law to help with Addy, since had no one to watch her. At the office, Addy kept asking the nurses & doc, "Mommy okay? Mommy okay?" It was the cutest thing. It's nice to know that my little wonder cares about her mommy. :)
When it was time to look at the baby- Addy was all over it. She'd go right for the US machine and look for the pictures that would be printed off. She knew exactly where to look. Such a smart cookie.

When I had to go back to the MD on Friday for some more lab work, Addy instantly headed for the US machine and said, "Baby Brother, Baby Brother" pointing the spot where the photos appear for the US. I think she will be a great Big sister.

Also this week, we started working on Addy's 2nd birthday present: her play kitchen. Here's sneak peak:

Now just need to put things together and it should be finished. She'll probable get before her birthday, since I think Daddy wants his spot back in the garage. :)
