Another round of cuteness, brought to you today by the international pacifier consortium.

Co-sponsored by the "kids in hats being surprised by the camera" club.

A special thank you to Christina for doing such a great job with Robby. We love you, Mom!

The Best of Ashford Living: A party

Christina and I will be holding a party to celebrate the completion of our 60 recipes challenge. We'll be cooking up a hand full of the best best recipes for everyone to sample.

If you got your invitation, make sure to RSVP. If not, you weren't invited.

For those of you that were, It's going to be a great time! See you there (or not).

While I was outlast week, Robby kept getting cuter. There's no slowing down the baby train.

Robby in the Bounce-o-Matic. It's become his part time job, making smiles and getting a leg workout.

Now, to some serious play time. How to get the rings off there...?

Other part time job? Rolling backwards in the BMU. The end of sedentary parenting is nigh. 

And his full time job? Snoozing and growing! What an adorable little guy.

Added bonus footage.

Up, Up, and away!

Look who's walking!

Dylan just turned 1 this week, and he's made it up onto his feet to boot. We're so proud of our newest tiny toddler--and Robby can't wait to get down there to play with the Maryland gang again!

Check out Dylan's travels during his birthday party:

Awesome! Keep up the good work Dylan!

Cutest Baby Ever.

Looks who's moving!

Christina captured this today at home. Robby's starting to do what the scientists call locomotion, thanks to what the Davises call the BMU (Baby Mobility Unit).

Bounce -o- Matic = Happy Baby while Daddy  Cooks. Check out the kicking feets.

Starting to eat solid foods. Or at least take them in his mouth, grimace, then spit them onto his face and shirt. And need to be cleaned up.

The end. Final Meal and the next Adventure: Family Forty.

Well, we've made it to the end of our journey. 60 recipes down, a lifetime of food adventure to go. Christina and I hope you enjoyed the ride. We certainly did.

Here is the final post, and it's a double.

Cheesecake, a la Stina.

Better than store bought. Very rich, creamy texture. Lemon flavored without any of the crazy cheesecake factory extra flavors. The way it should be.

All American breakfast. Homemade Waffles, Bacon, and farm fresh eggs. Really.

Set up.

Waffles!

The recipe is from my grandmother Urso in WV. Family favorite. I'll give you a hint: don't add water, add Seltzer. That is all.


For the Next Challenge:

The Family Forty

We have a family cookbook, put together by Christina's mom. Anytime someone new joins the family, new recipes from their kitchen are added to the book. Our plan is to make forty of these recipes and we hope you will enjoy them as much as we do!


Good bye.

The end. Final Meal and next Adventure

We, we've made it to the end of our jounrey. 60 recipes later and we're at the

Chicken Cordon something French

That, my friends, is what we call Dinner.

Stina got this one spot on. A real, real good one.

Swiss cheese and prosciutto wrapped in chicken cutlets. Fried. Gravy of milk and mushrooms, served over rice with green beans.

I'd eat this every day of the week if I could.

Robby's dinner was rice pudding.

Exactly. Not even close.
