Tara and I made a new recipe tonight. We are 3 for 3. This dinner was so good! We have cooked fish, chicken and tonight we made shrimp scampi with salad and bread. I had to make the shrimp stock early this afternoon since it took an hour to simmer and then it had to chill in the fridge. So here are all my shrimp shells boiling with some veggies to make the stock:
It says you can freeze the stock so good thing this recipe turned out good because we have lots of stock left over. One recipe only needs 1/2 cup of stock.
Here is our shrimp scampi . . . in a word . . . yum. We served it over rice and had NONE left over:
Abigail loved following Taylor and Emily around. Emily wanted Taylor to cover her with blankets and paper for some reason so of course Abigail wanted to be covered up too. She just laid on the ground and hung out with them:
She has also discovered the joy of sitting in a basket. She did this last night and Joe got a picture:
The problem is that she kept trying to get in Emily's doll pack n play and got stuck head first today. She hollered until I ran in there to get her out : )
Emily tried to put her princess dress on Abigail and she liked it. So I helped her get it all the way on her and she walked around for a little while with it on:
Abigail turned 19 months old on Monday. When she had her 18 month checkup a few weeks ago she weighed 21 pounds 7 oz and is 32 inches long. She continues to be in the 50% for her height and 25% for her weight. Her vocabulary is really growing and her laugh brings a big ol' smile to our faces.

That little Abigail may be little but she sure is a cutie! Just to give you a comparison...Philip weighed the same thing last week at his 9 month appt. :) Atleast you don't have to haul that 21 pounder around on your hip all the time!
And, you can come cook at my house anytime you need some practice. That shrimp scampi looked delish!
