Sunday Meal Plan – Week 16

Happy Meal Plan Day!!

It has been an amazing weekend for us here in WNY, and we definitely got outside and enjoyed it!

Saturday we made our first visit to the Elmwood-Bidwell Farmer’s Market. There wasn’t much in the way of produce, but we did get some delicious looking asparagus and some locally made chicken sausage (both of which are on the menu for this week). I also was able to grab some of my absolute favorite goat cheese from First Light Farm & Creamery, I’ve been waiting all Winter for it! They do sell it at the local co-op, but I don’t get there enough, whereas the Farmer’s Market we go almost weekly.

Later in the afternoon, we headed out for ice cream and to play. We went to a playground that is right next to the hospital where Emmett was born. I love going there, and seeing the hospital, plus it’s fun to point it out to Emmett every time (we’ve been there before). Emmett had a good time running around and trying to jump in the puddles and it got some his super high amounts of energy out.

Today I went out on my first long bike ride of the season. I was aiming for 15 miles, I did 16.5, mainly because I got lost. Whoops! I was using Google Maps and it kept telling me to turn right, but I couldn’t. There were only dead ends. So I kept going straight, thinking I would eventually be able to go right. Eventually, I could but then I was thrown off so I had to call Seamus and he headed me in the right direction and I easily found my way home. I won’t knock Google maps for bikes, though, it does say they’re still in BETA. Now I know they’re saying that for a reason.

After that, I came home ate a yummy breakfast (GF bagel, goat cheese and eggs), and we headed out to grocery shop. Came home, unloaded the groceries, Emmett ate a small lunch and then went down for a nap. While he napped, I did some laundry, cleaned my berries, and prepped some food for the week. I also dozed for about an hour, and it felt so good! My body was tired. Once Emmett was up, we headed out for a walk. Emmett wasn’t really enjoying the stroller so we let him walk on his own, so long as he held Daddy’s hand. He really liked that!

Sunday Meal Plan – Week 15 – Mother’s Day Edition

Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms, grandmas, and aunts out there!

Can you believe it’s mother’s day already? I swear we just rang in the new year! I know it’s so cliche to talk about the passage of time and how fast or slow it goes, but seriously, May? Already!?

We’re finally getting some phenomenal weather here in WNY, which makes me a happier person, plus it gives us the opportunity to get out and play, or RUN, which has become Emmett’s favorite. 🙂 He must get that from his dad, because even when I’m in shape to run, it’s never my favorite workout, whereas Seamus truly enjoys running, AND looks forward to it.

Alright, so you’re probably checking in to see what we have on the menu for this week. We had a few carry-overs (again) because we just didn’t feel like cooking one day so we ordered pizza, and then on Friday my mom and sister came up for Mother’s Day tea at Emmett’s day care, so we all ordered in.

mother's day meal plan - Baby Doodah!

So let me stop babbling and get to the menu…

Sunday: Hot Dogs (on the grill) & fries (one of my fave meals, for my special mother’s day)

Monday: Marinated Chicken & Zucchini

Tuesday: BBQ Pork Loin & Baked Potatoes

Wednesday: Spaghetti (with GF noodles – it’s our first time trying them, so I’ll let you know how they go) & Meatballs

Thursday: Homemade Pizza (carry-over)

Friday: Salmon Teriyaki & Asparagus (carry-over)

Saturday: Steak, with Chickpea & Tomato salad (again, I CANNOT get enough)

Seamus and I had a pretty easy time pulling our menu together this week, and we shopped on Saturday so that we didn’t have to worry about it on Sunday (because it’s Mother’s Day and I’m hoping to get spoiled). 😉 And the added bonus is that it’s a menu I’m pretty excited for! Woohoo!

As usual, I’m linking-up with Laura from Mommy, Run Fast! and Jill from jillconyers.com.

Your turn!

What fun things are you doing for Mother’s Day?
