Any one else with blog problems?

I asked a few of you already but is anyone else having problems or noticed on the screen to type your blog there are some missing buttons. ie. FONT, COLOR, SiZE and the HTML/Compose Tabs. All I can do is bold and italic. I know im not then only one. Jen said she has the same thing. Just wanted to know if it is affecting anyone else and how do we get those buttons back.

Mom, I look GOOD

AN's pictures came home today. She is so proud of them. You cant see her arm leaning on something which kinda makes the picture look a litte wierd but she is really growing up. "Mom I look GOOD in my pictures".

Where's the time gone?

My first baby boy is will almost be 6 years old. He had pictures taken at school last month and they came home today. He's so big now. What a great looking Kindergartner. Its so dry here his lips were still chapped and this was after his week of being home sick. He did a good job.

NEW FAVORITE

I was looking for something new to eat. We have been eating the same thing over and I was getting tired of it. I had some chicken and wondered what I could do with it. I found a receipe out of are ward cook book and VIOLA I found one. Its called CHICKEN NOODLE RICE STUFF and was YUMMY. My kids LOVED it. The Picture doesnt due justice. AN kept saying it looked gross but she really liked it. I even had to take a picture of her finishing her plate.



DM was even eating BROCOLLI. Im so amazed



This was AJ's 3RD plate. He did great eating. I think he had more than DM


I added frozen Brocolli because that what I had on hand. It calls for frozen corn or peas. AN wanted corn as a side so I mixed it together. It was really good. I think this was my 2nd or 3rd plate



Here's the Receipe if you dont have our ward cookbook its from Gaylinn T.

1 Cup Diced chicken breast. - I used 2 Sams Club pieces
2 Cups water
1 Cup Frozen peas or Corn - I used brocolli
2 Cups Cooked long grain rice
2 pkgs chicken flavored Ramen noodles
1 tsp. Garlic powder

Cook chicken in large fry pan in a little oil until almost cooked (or use canned chicken). Add the water and frozen veggies and garlic powder and noodles. put the flavored packets aside for a little later. Cover and bring to a boil. Let boil for 5 min, covered. Stir occasionally. Add the rice and 1 or 2 flavor packets, depending on how much spice you want in it. (I used both and it was just fine. not spicy at all). Stir all together; be sure rice is heated through. Serve

Let me know if you try it and like it. Your kids might be surprised with the veggies you can put in it.

AN pictures

AN had her 2nd grade Penguin night earlier this month and these are some pictures from that. It was a lot of fun. They had a little concert first with ALL songs about penguins. Some were very funny. She had a speaking part introducing the song ROCKHOPPER. She did a great job. After the concert they went to thier rooms for slide shows on the type of penguin they researched with a partner. AN and her friend did the Emperor Penguin. They had to even draw and color a life size poster of the penguin. She did the baby penguin. It was a great night. Then the picture with her teacher and some class mates.
