meal plan week two (still needs updating)

Yes meal planning is back on! I found a great app called Big Oven. It has been easier to use than interest pinning.
Monday (sept. 2nd)
BBQ bundles- My boys and hubby preferred the mustard based sauce over the ketchup but hubby says the ketchup tastes better as leftovers.

Quinoa bean salad- I didn't put in the chick peas. I enjoyed this side dish. Hubby and the older boys not too much. They aren't that big on healthy bean/pea based food. No issues from the three younger eaters though;)

Tuesday (sept. 3rd)
Bean and cheese enchiladas- I added beef to this recipe because I have a hubby who believes in meat. Everyone liked this meal.

Wednesday (sept. 4th)
We had left over day. I usually make recipes serve eight people since there are indeed eight of us but with the little kids and baby we always have left overs:)

Thursday (Sept. 5th)
3 Envelope roast. This was a very tender roast. I never thought to put ranch, italian and brown gravy packets into a pot roast... But surprisingly it tastes really good
Rolls (cheated here and did pillsbury)
Amish bean salad chilled


Friday (Sept 6th)



Saturday (Sept 7th)


Introducing new baby

Savannah Ryla

Born June 22. 6 lbs 9 ounces 20 3/4 inches long
She spent her first few days in the NICU because she was "juicy" at birth. You could hear her juiciness at birth. I meant to ask the doc if she was in a lot of fluid but never did.
She is doing perfectly fine now and we are loving every minute with her!
