Baby Paez

We're having a baby!!I'm 12 weeks pregnant and in the past 3 months I've learned soo much :) And so has Franco,he has his daddy's guide to pregnancy that he reads like it's his bible or something haha he puts up with my extreme grumpyness when I'm hungry haha and he has been amazing so far.
Our due date is February 6,my birthday also. And I'm guessing it'll be a late january baby but who knows?
Most family and friends say it will be a girl and Franco wants one so bad that maybe that's what we'll get!!
My belly is very small still so it's not twins like Franco keeps saying it is haha
My baby sister will now have a playmate!! And I'm so excited for that!
I have had horrible morning sickness which is more like all day nausea and puking :/ and I live with a headache....but all of that is ok,even though I complain I love knowing that it means my pregnancy is a very healthy one so far.I lost a few pounds but they'll be back!!! 
I think it helps to write about it,so I should do this more often! lol And I will!

Suri!!

My cutie pie of a baby sis was born  May 27 at 10:58 pm,she was 5 pounds and 17 inches long and I swear I've never seen such a beautiful baby :) I instantly fell in love with her!
The day after Suri Pie came into my life I found out she had down syndrome,I'm not gonna lie I was shocked.It was something I never in a million years would have expected,how could this tiny precious bundle of happiness be flawed? There was no way.and it's true she has down syndrome but she is definitely not flawed,not in any shape way or form,she is perfect as ever and I've never stopped loving her,nor will I.
Now 11 days later my sweet baby sister is still in the Newborn Intensive Care Unit at the hospital,too small and weak to eat all of her meals like any regular baby would,she has to be fed though a tube in her nose.5 out of 8 of her feedings have to be through this tube.Not bueno. :( We hope that soon she can come home to her lovely nursery(that btw I decorated.) and to all the people who love her.
She has become my favorite girl in my life,and soon I know we will get to be together without all the nurses,and the doctors.Without any needles,monitors,or oxygen tubes.Soon she will come home and I will be there to spoil her cause I'm her big sister and I love her.

Franco's task...

Ok so I randomly decided that Franco will dress me for  a week :) Yup 7 days of who knows what...lol
I hope this goes well.... The week starts next monday :D

Recipe

Well the Lemon & Dill chicken turned out pretty amazing :) I was really proud of how good it was haha even my picky husband liked it and he doesn't really like mushrooms :P
Now I have to see what my next culinary adventure will be..hmmm when I can think of something I'll post it up.

In the mean time here is the recipe for the Lemon & Dill chicken

4 Chiken Breasts
4 tbsp paprika
3 cups + 2 tsbp  flour
1 lb shitake mushrooms(any mushrooms will do.)
3 tbsp dill
3 tbsp basil
1 medium size red onion
1/2 c shallots
1/2 c parsley
2 lemons
2 sticks of butter
3-5 cups chicken stock
1 packet of spaghetti or any type of pasta

First you need to  thin out the chicken breasts and flaten them,
then you need to season the 3 cups of flour with salt,pepper and the paprika.
Cover the chiken with flour and fry with butter.(Use as much butter as you want.)Set aside.Cook the pasta according to the instructions on the package.
For the sauce chop the onions,shallots,parsley,dill and the basil.Slice mushrooms,zest the lemons and squeeze the juice from one.
Melt about 2 tbsp of butter and sautee the red onions,add shallots,then add the sliced mushrooms.
Add the parsley,dill and basil,let cook for about 3 minutes then add  3 cups of chicken stock,then add the lemon juice and zest.let it simmer and then add the 2 tablespoons of flour gradually so they do not form lumps,add more liquid if needed,the consistency shoul be a bit thick.
On a plate put the pasta,the sauce on top of that, the chicken goes last with a bit of sauce on top and voila! dinner is served! :)

I hope this helps somebody, it was delicious!! I'll post pics later!
