The menu plan is a little messed up this week a few days will be whatever we can throw together. Tally and Devlin were both up and down all Friday night and Saturday morning Tally wouldn't stop crying that her ear hurt again. After an urgent care visit (diagnosed double ear infection) it was apparent that we weren't going to get to the state fair like planned, so no turkey leg and fair food for dinner. She is on antibiotics and feeling a little better, no fever so she's at school today.
- Roasted Chicken (Samsclub) and Red Potato Salad
- Brown Bag Burritos ( dinner plus more for Matts lunch this week)
- Stuffed Pizza Rolls
- Chicken pasta (Just ww pasta, Tomato Basil sauce, chicken breast, with some spinach and mushrooms thrown in)
- Baked Tomato Basil Fish (recipe later this week) no clue what sides possibly salad or spinach along with brown rice or ww couscous
- The rest is whatever...breakfast, sandwiches. whatever we can throw together out of the cabinets/fridge/freezer

New goodies at Peppermint Creative! Few pages with the new Hocus Pocus halloween kit and the new freebie kit Momitude
The kids seem to be on the mend. Tally got a rash at school last week that I can only assume was an allergic reaction to something she got into. The doctor thought it was viral, possibly fifths disease but it was gone after 2 days so that pretty much ruled it out. She has sensitive skin just like I do so I can definitely see this being a reoccurring problem. Otherwise both kids have colds that just don't seem to be going away, again... possibly allergies.
Finished this one last week. It was a nice read, really loving Mia Kings books. I have one more that I'm waiting for at the library, her newest one "Table Manners".
I think that is all I have for now, I might be back tonight or tomorrow to start my menu plan posting again.
We've been having an ongoing battle of sickies enter the house since Tally started school. Will be back to posting as soon as things have returned to normal, meaning that at least I'm feeling better ;)
I have a little bit of me time while Tally is at school and Devlin is napping. I'm slowly getting things organized around here and getting things to run a little smoother. Who knows when I'll actually get the whole house decluttered and organized but at least I'm working on it! I've also been taking my exercise seriously this week and I'm determined to make it a habit this month!!
Tally is loving school. They take afternoon naps before they come home and she's always been cranky when woke up from naps at home, apparently things have not changed just because she's in school. The teacher says she's fine all day until they wake her from her nap, we've picked her up teary eyed several days last week and once so far this week. I'm not to concerned about it since she's fine up until after the nap. The teacher will start sending behavior charts home on Friday and I'm hoping we never have any issues with this.
I have a few book sitting in front of me, none of which I've started reading. I wanted to show the books but vox books area doesn't seem to be working today so I'll just name them.
"The Pretend Wife" by Bridget Asher
"Breakfast at Stephanies" Sue Margolis
