Happy Birthday???
It looks like today might be the day! Contractions woke me up at 2 a.m. and haven't slowed down much. We went in for a scheduled non-stress test and when she checked I was 5 cm and my bag of waters is bulging. So we are at the hospital right now getting settled in.
I have to say I am feeling GREAT! I feel like I should be at home but the doctor wanted us to go in in case my water breaks and things go quickly. I am handling contractions with the balance ball, deep breaths and this little acorn to focus on. So we'll see how long I can keep this up. I already miss Gracie like crazy! She and Nana are coming to visit with coconuts before I get too scary in here :-)
We'll keep this space posted with pictures of the baby as soon our little bean arrives and we have settled into the maternity ward. Wish me luck!

Easy Cheesy Vegetarian Lasagna
41 weeks, two days and we are still waiting on a baby. Things are progressing though. Some contractions and bloody show last night but still prelabor.
So on to other things....
We love veggie lasagna. In fact I think it is what Ryan ordered on our second date at Ghazzi's Pesto Cafe in Fayetteville. I love the comfort of something cheesy and bubbly out of the oven on a chilly night like tonight. It is hard to believe Autumn is just a week away!
This is a very quick prep supper that can be done in the morning or anytime during the day and then baked at the last minute. The baking is really the only thing that takes time.
Easy Cheesy Vegetarian Lasagna
No Bake lasagna noodles
2 jars of your favorite pasta sauce (I use TJ's organic tomato basil-low in sugar and sodium and uses real ingredients)
one bag broccolli slaw (or chopped zucchini or spinach)
one container sliced crimini mushrooms
shredded parm cheese or asiago
ricotta
(I also thought of substituting a jar of alfredo sauce for the ricotta)
mozerrella cheese for top
In a large baking dish layer
1/2 jar sauce
noodles
mushrooms
cheeses
noodles
1/2 jar sauce
broccoli slaw
cheeses
noodles
pour last jar over the top
Bake for 45 minutes at 375 degrees
then top with moz cheese and nake another 15 minutes until bubbly
