Pot Roast and Sweet Potatoes

Quick updates: Baby Wade is an amazing baby that loves to sleep and cuddle, he has just started to smile.  Henry is slowly accepting his role as big brother and diaper changing supervisor.  That being said, we are still in survival mode.  Luckily its pretty dang cold outside so we have been living off the slow cooker (and amazing friends who keep bringing us meals!!!)

This took me about 2 hours to get everything in the slow cooker due to having to pick up the baby, kiss boo-boos, change the tv show for Henry, change it again, change diapers, and put the baby back to sleep. It should take you like twenty minutes.

Of course I forgot to take a picture of it- but its not that pretty anyway.
