Weekly Meal Plan

That’s right…it’s back!!!! And a little early this week because we just moved into our new place and things have been so ABSOLUTELY crazy for the past week that I needed some order and normalcy back in my life before I completely LOST it. I am also sick and tired of pizza and cereal which is basically what we have been living off of this past week. I decided to sit down and make a grocery list and of course a MEAL PLAN so here we go!

ps. I plan on posting pics of the new place soon I just want it to look all nice and put together first!

Saturday – Chicken Scallopini 

Sunday – Taco Ring – I saw this on someones facebook status and had to try it!

Monday – Grilled Shrimp and Orzo with steamed veggies

Tuesday – Leftovers

Wednesday – Omelets and Bacon – Brian makes really yummy omelets!

Thursday – CrockPot Chicken Divan served over Brown Rice

Friday – We will be eating out with my Cousin Renee and her family who will be visiting from Michigan!!!!

Saturday – We will be attending Harper’s 3rd Birthday and eating some goodies at the beach!!

Sunday – Citrus Pork with Egg Noodles

**I am breaking my rule and cooking on Sunday’s due to the work schedule…gotta do whatcha gotta do sometimes

FAVORITE PHOTO OF THE DAY!

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter everyone!! I managed to find a few minutes to sit down and do an Easter post..yay! Yesterday we had a get together with Brian’s family to celebrate my sis-in-law Ami’s Birthday and of course Easter Carla and I tried really hard to get the kids to cooperate for an easter photo but it really just didn’t go so well. I had the idea to stick mini m&m’s in an easter basket to get them to sit by the basket and act Eastery (is that a word?) Anyway you can see how it went…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Grace sorta beat Jonas to the punch

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

He became so focused on the M&M’s that I couldn’t get a smile out of him!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I managed to get a couple cute candid ones of them which is about all you can expect with 2 wild toddlers!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!

I know, I know

I said I would not let work interfere with my blogging but I guess it was inevitable especially when combined with moving and the fact that there just isn’t much going on that is blog worthy! Anyway I am in the middle of  a long stretch of shifts at the hospital which means a long stretch of time off is around the corner!! YAY!

I started nights and let me just say it ain’t easy! I feel like a zombie for about the last 3 hours of my shift and pretty much until I get into my bed. I know it will take some getting used and hopefully it will get easier but for now I’m a bit out of sorts so once again sorry if I slack on the blogging. I know this sounds silly but blogging is a big outlet for me and I feel sad when I don’t get to do it throughout the week so hopefully life will get back to somewhat “normal” soon and I will be able to get back to it…

And just in case you forgot what he looks like here is a pic of Jonas I took the other day. He was posing for his momma Not really…but it looks like it!!
