Monday: Hamburgers and hot dogs at the church softball game - Yes, this happened
Tuesday: Pork Chops with Garlic Parmesan Crust and Twice Baked Potato Casserole - This did not happen.  I think my husband came home way late from work so I made this Wednesday instead.
Wednesday: Three Cheese Chicken Alfredo Bake - Pork Chops with Garlic Parmesan Crust and Twice Baked Potato Casserole and it was awesome!  I put a little too much garlic in the crust but it actually came out great.  I also put a little too much sour cream in the potatoes but they weren't bad either.  They really tasted like baked potatoes!
Thursday: Frozen pizzas (softball game) - I think we actually ate leftover pork and potatoes
Friday: Out - I honestly can't remember what we ate but I know we didn't go anywhere.  Wendy's maybe?
Saturday: Red Potatoes and Ham Casserole - This was pretty good.  I'm not a fan of Ranch anything and this was a little strong for me with the Ranch taste but not bad.  I will make it again and just dial down the Ranch.
Sunday: Homemade Mac and Cheese - Did not make this Sunday.  I can't remember what we ate but it wasn't this.

I think we got one or two walks in, which just isn't enough.  I was afraid of just crossing stuff off and moving it and that's exactly what I did.  This is a bit of a crazy time for us so hopefully next week I can stick to the schedule a bit better.

I'm a little late getting this posted but oh well.

Monday:  Hamburgers, hot dogs and Homemade Mac and Cheese
Tuesday:  Grilled Chicken and baked potatoes
Wednesday:  Leftovers
Thursday:  Leftovers
Friday:  Out for my Birthday!
Saturday:  Out for my Birthday!
Sunday:  Leftovers

I forgot to change Saturday's menu on my schedule.  My husband and I are going out to dinner Friday for my birthday and then my parents are taking us out Saturday for my birthday.  Maybe I'll make the Alfredo for lunch?

Ashlyn's Dedication is this weekend so I have a VERY busy week ahead, which is why we are eating so many leftovers.  At least they won't go to waste!  Here's hoping for a slower week next week so I can try some new recipes.


What new recipes are you trying this week?

17 Tips - #1 Take a Prenatal Vitamin

17 Tips for a Healthy Pregnancy - #1 Take a Prenatal Vitamin Even when you're still trying to conceive, it's smart to start taking prenatal vitamins. Your baby's neural cord, which becomes the brain and spinal cord, develops within the first month of pregnancy, so it's important you get essential nutrients, like folic acid, calcium, and iron, from the very start. Prenatal vitamins are available over the counter at most drug stores, or you can get them by prescription from your doctor. If taking them makes you feel queasy, try taking them at night or with a light snack. Chewing gum or sucking on hard candy afterward can help, too. It took me a little while to get into the habit of taking my prenatal vitamin. I wasn't used to taking anything daily since I had been off the pill for a few months. I finally got myself in the habit of taking it every morning. I just take an over the counter vitamin. It has the same nutrients as a doctor prescribed vitamin but is less hass...

HFMD

Hand, foot, and mouth disease is a common viral illness that usually affects infants and children younger than 5 years old. However, it can sometimes occur in adults. Symptoms of hand, foot, and mouth disease include fever, blister-like sores in the mouth (herpangina), and a skin rash. ( http://www.cdc.gov/hand-foot-mouth/about/index.html) Are you kidding me? Blister-like sores in the mouth? Why do things like this even exist? What purpose does an illness like this that just torments little babies (and their parents) serve?  This stupid illness is currently 'running it's course' through my poor son. One week before his first birthday. Apparently it's 'going around' as the doctor so nicely explained.  Fortunately we only had one really bad day where he was not eating or drinking much and was just miserable. He was back to his usually happy self in no time even with blisters in his mouth. So this week, while my husband is away for work in Chicago and ...

29 Week Bumpdate

The heart rate today was 160 and all is well. Little Man is still kicking away all the time!  He sleeps until late morning and then he's all over the place for the rest of the day.  It's fun but it's also uncomfortable sometimes. When I weighed myself on Sunday, which is when I usually do it to update my pregnancy app, I was only up 15lbs.  As of today, though, I am up 17lbs.  I feel like I am growing at warp speed but the doctor assures me that I am measuring just fine.  I do feel like some of the shirts I wore two weeks ago shouldn't be worn anymore though!  The bump is growing! I have noticed that I have been waking up with swollen ankles every morning despite sleeping with them elevated.  I know this has a lot to do with the weight gain since I had such a problem with it last time.  Other than that, the normal heartburn and backaches come and go and I'm crazy tired but I don't really have any other issues.  I don't ever ...
