Easy Yummy Dinner!

So as you are all aware I have been struggling to get stuff done around the house, especially cook.  But I read a friends blog (Thanks Dana) and got this recipe.  Now I will say that I too changed it up a bit, but mostly followed her directions.  But heres what I did and what you need.  

::Easy Enchiladas::
1 lb chicken
4 cups mozzarella or quesadilla cheese
16 oz sour cream
1/4 tsp ground red pepper
about 7 flour tortillas
red enchilada sauce
Boil the chicken

Mix up the sour cream, shredded mozzarella cheese (2 cups), ground red pepper, and diced chicken in a large bowl 
Fry the flour tortillas in oil for 5 seconds on each side
Next, dip each tortilla in the enchilada sauce 
Spoon the chicken mixture in each tortilla and roll up nice and tight 
place in  a 9 x 13 pyrex 
Cook at 375 for 25 minutes.
Top with last 2 cups cheese 5 minutes before taking out of oven!


Sorry I have no picture to share, we ate them up so fast last night, there was no time to take one! But I will say they were super good and definitely not hard to make. I suggest you give them a try and you too will be impressed.

Pregnancy Pillow Update...



This is my new best friend!




So I have slept with my new pillow for 4 nights now and let me tell you-It helps BIG time!  Instead of waking up and tossing and turning all night long,  I have been able to sleep more comfortably and only wake up for the occasional bathroom break or during the loud thunderstorm, (like last night).


To all you preggers out there- GO get the pillow-Trust Me! It doesn't matter that your husband will make fun of you or call your pillow the "great divid".  You will just be happy to sleep through the night.

Pregnancy Pillow...

So I've been having trouble sleeping lately, especially falling asleep and staying asleep.  I mean I wake up at least once, if not twice, to use the bathroom in the middle of the night.  And then I have a hard time getting comfortable to go back to sleep.  I mean let me just tell you that I am a stomach sleeper and ever since I found out about Sprout I've been sleeping on my side.  (Not my favorite at all!) So I've been looking and praying for a miracle to get me comfortable and sleeping better.

So after talking with a friend last night I decided to give in and purchase the all famous preggers pillow.  You know the really long one thats shaped like "C"?  I thought that maybe I could get away without it and that maybe I could just use extra pillows-I mean I'm not even that big yet- but after last night I was told it was a must have and money well spent, and that this pillow was a miracle worker.  I mean, how could I not buy it after hearing that.  I still think that $50 for a pillow is a bit ridiculous, but I've been desperate for a solution to help my sleeping so I gave in and bought it today.  Hey, at least I had a coupon!

Tonight is my first night with my new best friend, so I'll let you know how it goes...

Finally a little energy....

Okay, so  I finally am starting to feel a bit more like myself.  I have just started to have a bit more energy-phew! I mean finally 15 weeks weeks later...  However, it has been a tough couple of weeks.  I have been sick and not sick from "sprout", but I had some horrible sinus infection and let me just tell you, it knocked me right off my feet. I had to stay in bed for a couple of days, not to mention, it left me coughing and and stuffy "nosed" for the past 2 weeks.  But now, finally now, I am starting to get over all the sickness and move into the 2nd trimester of pregnancy.

So here at the Kim household I've been struggling to get things done.  You know, like laundry and just keeping the house clean and tidy.  But hopefully with the start of my 2nd trimester I'll be able to have a little more energy to feel like doing household chores.  I am usually pretty anal when it comes to cleaning, but being so tired in my 1st trimester made me care about as much as um, nothing...  Luckily, I have a sweet husband who has been helping with dinners and keeping the kitchen tidy.

On an exciting note, we go for our next ultrasound on the 28th!  Bright and early in the morning I might add! We can't wait because if sprout is cooperating then we will leave knowing pink or blue!  If not, then I am going to make an appointment with one of the 4b baby vision places because I really don't think I'll be able to wait another 4 weeks to find out the gender.  I am at that point where I want to start buying things (I have held off so far) and start getting the nursery together.  I know it may be early, but the furniture is ordered and I am ready to get the nursery organized!

And may I just say on a random note that Rolling in the Deep by Adele is like my favorite new song! Love it!  And I'm loving Avril's new album too...
