Tylerism's

The other day we were in the car riding to grandpa Paul Kemp's house and Tyler was kicking the back of Braden's seat (which he loves to do) and I turned around and said "You better shape up" and his reply to me was "No, I can't turn into a different shape".. LOL
Braden and I had to turn the other way to let our laughs out. It was so funny.
Just had to share.

My sleepy boy

Tyler is getting to the age of not taking naps. Some days he does and some he doesn't. Today was one of the days he didn't take one. He played most of the day with the neighbor boy. They played pretty hard. They were in and out of the house all day long. At dinner he started getting naughty and we could tell that this is all because of no nap. You know how it is.. the whining, crying, nothing you do is right. Well he hauled up and hit me in the side and he was taken to time out right away. Our time out is the bottom step. I set the timer for 3 min. and walked away. He cried for a moment and then there was silence. Silence in this house is never good. Either he is doing something he shouldn't or .... oh my gosh... he fell asleep on the step. It was the cutest thing ever. He was just exhausted. It was only 6:45 but we knew he was super tired so we carried him up to bed and got him dressed in his jammies. Hopefully this doesn't make for to early of a morning.

Cafe' Rio sweet pork salad

This salad is one of my all time favorites when I visit Cafe' Rio. I got a whim and decided for Super Bowl Sunday I would attempt to make these oh so yummy salads for Braden, myself, Chris and Megan (Braden's brother and sister-in-law). I researched online and found many different websites that all had there own take on it. I landed on a blog that grabbed my attention. Her recipes sounded the best to me so I went for it. I was so amazed. It tasted just like Cafe' Rio. I followed the website pretty close and only made a few changes. I will be adding this one to the recipe box. I highly recommend this one!!

The changes that I made were: not marinating the pork for a few hours and I did a mix of pinto beans and black beans other than that I followed the recipe.

Here is a link if anyone else is a big fan like us.
