Dallas Dreams of Key Lime Pie

 Well, it is not technically a "Key" lime pie, because I just used regular limes, but it sounds better to say key lime.  

This is my second week in a row NOT making a pie crust.  This pie really needs a Graham Cracker crust and they were on sale at Food Lion.  I thought this pie turned out pretty well.  It used 2 cans of sweetened condensed milk, which seems like a lot to me.  It was a pretty sweet pie.  There were some other recipes that only called for one can, and also used a lot of eggs (whereas this recipe had no eggs).  I am now wondering what those pie taste like.  Well, there is always next time I make a lime pie.  

I tried to make the top look very pretty with the whipped cream and the twisty lime on the top. I'm not sure how I did.  I like my pies to look delicious too.  

Well, it was a big hit with the girls.  They seem to like cream pies the best.

In other news, I went to go play some pickup frisbee today.  It is only my second week back since last October.  I really like ultimate frisbee.  I think I'm pretty fast but I have lost a lot of my coordination and disc throwing skills, I really need to practice.

Also, our babies are starting to move! Mabel can very clearly pull herself forward a little.  She chased a toy like 5 ft today while on a hard floor.  I have not seen Olive pull herself forward, she usually travels backwards (a few days ago we found her stuck underneath a bed, she backed under it). Though she doesn't go forward yet, she has started doing pushups.  Getting up on her hands and knees like she is getting ready to do real crawling.  I will try to get some video of this to put up on here.  These are important steps!
