It was a crazy week getting back to school and figuring out the best pick-up routine for the kids at the end of the day. I had it down pretty good by Thursday. It is so nice to get off so early in the afternoon!
My middle sister stayed with us a few nights and helped out with dinners and laundry and watched the baby for us one day.
On Friday, my mother in law watched the kids while Ryan helped his dad with their renovation project. I met a friend for dinner and spent 3 wonderful hours in Kohls going through all the clearance racks to find some great deals on baby clothes for next spring and summer and some clothes and shoes for myself. I used my 20% off coupon and earned Kohl's cash for Ryan to go shopping next week.
I went through my clothes and set aside all the pants and tops that are too big to asked a friend if she wanted to go through them.
I took the kids to the Springs Preserve with our family membership on Saturday which has definitely paid for itself this year.
I made granola bars, banana breakfast muffins, and chocolate chip pancakes to freeze for our breakfasts and snacks for the next few weeks.
I made baby food peaches and carrots.
I cooked several chicken breasts in the crockpot and shredded it all. I bagged and froze some for lunch meat in wraps, set some for making chicken vegetable soup the following day and added BBQ sauce to the rest for sandwiches. The leftover chicken soup will be pureed for baby food.
I made a key lime yogurt pie for dessert Sunday night. It was really delcious with only 200 cals per slice!
I made a batch of dishwasher detergent.
Austin will start Taekwondo next week at the city rec center. I had a credit from a week of classes cancelled when he took it last spring, so I only paid $15 for 8 classes.
