Happy Sunday, readers!!
Another great weekend is nearly in the books. We have had an astounding weekend. Saturday we went to Dunkirk to celebrate my dad’s birthday. His actual day was this past Wednesday the 13th, but weekends are always easier to celebrate on. We had a mini-BBQ, lots of hot dogs, hamburgers and pasta salad. I didn’t eat the greatest but it was really delicious!
One of the best parts of Saturday was that Emmett got to meet one of his idols, Rolley. 😉 He seriously loves Bob the Builder and was so excited when we took a walk by my mom’s house and they had this cement roller there. I wish I had video’d the whole thing, his excitement was ADORABLE!
And then today has been super productive!! I woke up at 5:30 this morning, thinking I’d get some time to get work done, but Emmett had other ideas. He wanted to wake up at 5:45 and spend some time cuddling on the couch watching Bob the Builder. I can’t say I blame him, I am pretty awesome, but it cut into my work time. haha
Ah well!! In the end it worked out. I pulled my laptop out while he watched TV, I got a few odds and ends done, and then eventually I made him breakfast. After breakfast, we woke Seamus up, mainly so I could get to our hamper and start our laundry. I’ve gotten 4 loads of laundry done, grocery shopping, food prep and some Beachbody stuff all complete and it’s only just 3 pm. Feels good to be so productive!!
Our Weekly Meal Plan
This weeks’ meal plan has some new recipes on it, ones that I am REALLY excited to try!!
Sunday: Chili & corn bread (carry-over from last week)
Monday: Leftovers
Tuesday: White Pizza Stuffed Zucchini Boats
Wednesday: Chicken Shawarma Thursday: Steak, Chick Pea & Tomato Salad
Friday: Marinated Chicken with Sauteed Corn with Bacon and Leeks
Saturday: BBQ Bacon Hot Dogs and Baked Fries
The BBQ Bacon Hot Dog is going to be a Seamus creation. He went to a food truck that sold that type of hot dog, but didn’t get the chance to try it, so now he wants to make it at home. We’re saving it for the weekend, since we like to be less indulgent during the week. I’ll be sure to report back on how delicious (or not) it ends up being. 🙂
Like I said, we’re trying a few new things this week and I am very excited about that! We needed to spice up our Sunday meal plan.
I’m linking up with Laura from Mommy, Run Fast! and Jill from jillconyers.com
