Another recipe I got off of foodnetwork.com. The chicken has so much flavor and is crunchy on the outside and juicy in the middle.
Ingredients
1/2 sleeve (about 20) whole-grain salted crackers, pulsed in a food processor until fine (about 1/2 cup)
2 1/2 cups corn cereal flakes, pulsed in a food processor to fine crumbs (about 1/2 cup)
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
3/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
2 egg whites
1 cup lowfat, plain yogurt
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
Olive oil cooking spray
4 medium sized skinless chicken breasts and 4 skinless chicken thighs, rinsed and patted dry (about 3 1/2 pounds chicken)
Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly spray a baking sheet with olive oil.
Combine the crackers and corn cereal crumbs, sesame seeds, cayenne, and garlic powder in a shallow bowl. Reserve.
In a large bowl, combine egg whites, yogurt, Dijon mustard, and salt. Add the chicken pieces and coat thoroughly with the yogurt mixture.
One at a time, dip the chicken pieces in the cracker mixture, packing crumbs onto chicken. Arrange the chicken on a baking sheet and spray lightly with olive oil cooking spray.
Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until juices run clear when chicken is pierced with a knife.

Peanut Butter and Jelly Pancakes
I got this recipe off of foodnetwork.com. I made it for the kids. They loved it.
Peanut Butter and Jelly Pancakes
Ingredients
For Jelly Syrup:
1 cup grape jelly
2 teaspoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons water
For Pancakes:
1 1/2 cups milk
3/4 cup peanut butter
2 1/2 cups baking mix
2 eggs
Canola cooking spray
Directions
For Syrup:
To make the syrup, heat the grape jelly in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Dissolve the cornstarch in 2 tablespoons water in a small bowl. When the jelly has become liquid, stir in the cornstarch mixture. Simmer until a syrup consistency is reached, about 5 to 10 minutes.
For Pancakes:
In a small saucepan warm the milk over low heat. Whisk in the peanut butter and combine until completely smooth, then remove from the heat.
In a large mixing bowl add the baking mix. Stir in the eggs and milk mixture and combine until just incorporated.
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
Put a large cast iron or nonstick skillet over medium heat. Spray it with cooking spray. Put 1/4 cup of pancake batter in the center of the skillet and cook until golden brown. About 1 to 2 minutes per side. When bubbles in the center of the pancake have deflated, flip over and cook the other side. Store on a sheet tray in the preheated oven to keep warm while making the rest of the pancakes.
Transfer the pancakes to a large serving platter and serve with warm grape syrup.

Pink eye
So Saturday Audreys eye was snotty and watery. We out some drops in it and it seemed better. That night it got snottier and pink. We put more drops in. Today we get up and both her eyes are swollen. She is miserable. We take her to the after hours clnic and she has a fever, severe pink eye a ear infection. My poor princess. So now I am dealing with another ear infection. I just spent 6 weeks with Wyatt and ear infections.
We have to put drops in her eyes 4 times a day. Now if you have had to put drops in a childs eyes before then you know it is like wrestling a animal. Its talke 2 people to hold her down and she cries and cries. I feel so bad for her.

Evan turned 6
Evan turned 6 on Sat (Nov 21). It seems just like yesterday that he was a baby. He is growing up so quickly. He had a Ben 10 party. We held the part at my inlaws garage. He had about 8 kids there and it was a great number. We decorated cookies, beat up a sponge bob pinanta and played outside with side walk chalk. I could not believe it was warm enough to play outside but it was beautiful. The kids outlined their bodies so the drive way looked like a crime scene lol. Evan loved his cake I made and tasted good too.
He got tons of Bakugons. He had only 1 before the party and he now has 20. I don't really get them but he loves them. He is also really getting into games and he got 3 new games: Operation, Connect 4 and Sorry Sliders.
Both my sisters where at the party and thats rare we all 3 are together. I really enjoyed having them there.

The adventures of Wyatt
Wyatt is such a goof. He is really walking alot. He is walking on the insides of his feet and ankles but hopefully PT will help that. When he walks around or pretty much does anything his mouth is wide open and tongue hanging out. Maybe its a concentration thing lol. Its very cute
He is really getting into EVERYTHING!!! He even hides his diapers lol. Sometimes I just wanna hog tie him for 5 mins so I can use the restroom lol. Then he turns around and says huggie huggie (thats his word for hug). How can I be irritated when he says that and gives me such a big hug.
