Night Terrors
(This photo WAS NOT taken while she was experiencing a Night Terror)I moved my little one over as I got into bed, she tossed and turned and woke up screaming! "Oh, no! She's up", I thought. She's a light sleeper. Little did I know, she wasn't really up, she was in a deep sleep! She started climbing over my hubby and I trying to get off of the bed, as I tried to lift her, she screamed and cried and wriggled her way out of my grasp. I had my hubby turn the lights on, and still, she screamed. She couldn't be comforted by either of us. By this time she was off the bed, and although I Keep reading...
RECIPE: Super Easy Sprite Biscuits
If you're on Pinterest you may have seen the recipe for 7-up Biscuits floating around. I changed it up a bit and used Sprite instead. We didn't have any 7-up on hand so I figured Sprite would work just as well, and it did. Let me tell you, these biscuits were GOOD! They are so light with a slight hint of sweetness. Being that bread is my guilty pleasure, especially freshly baked, I couldn't pass up on this recipe. I'm so glad I tried it, and you should too! It's super easy and uses just four ingredients, most of which I just happened to have at home. Thanks Costco for my giant tub of Keep reading...
