Ultrasounds, To-do lists, and Lake fun
We had our ultrasound yesterday, and they joyfully informed us that little Miss "got fat". *grin*
They're estimating her weight to be around 5lbs 5oz right now, so she's a little on the "small" side, but she's well in line to be about my other babies sizes. (I have to admit that I'm relieved to hear that she's not too little and quite content to hear that she won't be very large!)
(Not me. Just a cute pic found on pinterest)
Nesting has been going on full force around here, and though I still have quite a bit to do on my list, I've gotten a decent amount crossed off!

I know I've asked this before but how do you thaw your baked goods. Do you just sit them on the counter overnight? Do you heat them before serving or just serve them room temp? : )
Emily, I usually just pull them out of the freezer the night before and let them thaw overnight.... that works really well for the muffins and rolls. The waffles I will usually pull out of the freezer and throw into the oven. Depending on the baked good, I'll either serve it warmed slightly or room temp... Rolls we'll re-warm, muffins usually not :)
