Cowboy Bowls and Sleepless Nights

My sweet baby is teething and let me just say, no one warns you about this new milestone. August has been waking up on the hour every hour for the past week. My poor little buddy is in pain. He isn’t 6 months yet so, his physician said we could use Tylenol and that is pretty much it. I have tried the Amber necklace and I can’t tell a difference. We are using orajel but it’s so temporary. The only thing that really helps is frozen pops. You can read about those here.

We are all exhausted and cooking in this house has to be easy! Last night I made a Cowboy Bowl. Check out the recipe below.
