Trying to be patient!

I have been trying to be patient in waiting for "little bit". I've also tried not cleaning everything in sight, figuring that if I don't, surely she will come! But I gave in today on the floors! I could mop every other day at this point....yes, seriously! Still lots of dull contractions in my lower back, but to no avail. You never think you will want such horrible pain as when you are at the end of a pregnancy! Please Lord, bring on the contractions!!!! Right now dinner is on the stove, taco soup....yummy! Girls are playing the Wii, floors are clean, everything else is clean and in place, and laundry is almost done....all things bought and organized for the homebirth. Now, it is just sit and wait or walk and wait!

Taco Soup
3 lbs ground beef
8oz chop chili pep (I don't add this b/c of the kiddo’s)
40 oz kidney beans (I mix 1/2 red and 1/2 dark red, I also add a can of black beans in)
31 oz pinto beans
16 oz kernel corn
2 packs taco seasoning (the large container of taco seasoning @ Sam's is the best buy if you make this soup a lot)
2 packs ranch seasoning (Large container @ Sams is the best buy on this too)
2 cloves garlic
large onion; chopped (I don't add this either; kids n gas-lol)
56 oz stewed tom (or diced)
12 oz water
2 tbsp wortichire

Put all ingredients in large pot, except bf, onion, garlic; on med heat.
Brown bf with garlic n onion, then add to pot to boil.

Reduce to simmer 2-3 hours


From my Sister in law….the best taco soup ever!!!!
