Happy Monday everyone!  We’ve had a pretty good weekend. My nephew came home from Scottish Rite on Friday. We are so happy to have him home with his family. The picture above shows all 10 cousins!

The week ahead, we are hopping back into the homeschool scene and working on getting things back in order.  It’s been a little hectic around here.  I’m so thankful that we homeschool so we can be flexible with things as they come about.

Sorry there isn’t a picture on this post- I haven’t taken many this past week!  We had a nice weekend – short, but nice.  The neighborhood pool we go to closed today for the season so we’ve been spending time out there soaking in the last bit of summer.  My husband also started back on day shift this past week so that’s been so nice having him around.  I’m going to try to get back into eating healthier again since life is settling for a short while.

Here’s what we are planning to make this week:

Monday: Dinner Out

Tuesday: Grilled Chicken, Sweet Potatoes, broccoli

Wednesday: BBQ, green beans

Thursday: Omelettes

Friday: Pork chops, brussel sprouts

Saturday: Chili

Sunday: Leftovers

This weekend was ok and relaxing for the first half and then quickly went crazy.  I took one child who felt sick at church to urgent care and they were diagnosed with a sinus infection and upper respiratory infection.  Got home from there and another child started having severe side pain and we ended up in the ER.  Fortunately it’s nothing too serious, but requires follow ups and can be treated in a physician’s office instead of the ER.  She was much happier with some good pain meds and antibiotics.  Now lets hope that we don’t end up with something worse from being in those facilities yesterday!  We have friends coming down with the stomach bugs so YIKES that it’s going around already!  Going to try to keep pumping my kids with vitamin C, fresh air and sunshine, and some ACV.

Here’s what we are making this week:

Monday: Grilled chicken, brown rice, steamed veggies

Tuesday: Dinner with friends

Wednesday: Unstuffed Pepper Medley

Thursday: Burgers, veggies

Friday: Egg Casserole, sausage

Saturday: Pizza

Sunday: Leftovers

This weekend we celebrated the baby of the family turning 3.  It’s crazy how quickly time is flying by!  We had a pretty good weekend celebrating with family and Simon is enjoying all his new cars and trucks.  In the midst of all the fun, there is still the obvious elephant in the room.  Only 9 cousins.  There should be 10.  Levi is still in the hospital and still “storming” from his brain injury.  We aren’t sure when he will be able to come home and progress has pretty much stopped.  It’s a really hard emotional place to be, seeing a once very vibrant boy now have very little life to him.  We are all struggling and would appreciate prayers for sure.

The week ahead is filled with homeschool and cousins and tennis and all the fun that comes with it.  Here’s what we plan to make this week:

Monday: Grilled chicken, sweet potatoes, steamed veggies

Tuesday: Chicken pot pie

Wednesday: Steak, zucchini

Thursday: Bean burritos

Friday: Spaghetti with meatballs

Saturday: Leftovers

Sunday: Omelettes

I’m not sure if anyone ever reads my meal plans anymore, but I still do them for accountability for myself.  I like having plans and if I don’t write it down, I completely forget what I was going to make for dinner during the week.

This week, we will be celebrating our youngest, the caboose of the family, turning 3!  It’s so wonderful and bittersweet at the same time.  I’m already starting to get rid of all the baby things and even most of the toddler things since they won’t be needed here anymore.

Monday: Cajun Cream Chicken, okra

Tuesday: Dinner at Chickfila (Free chicken sandwich from 5-8pm for Atlanta area chickfilas – call your restaurant to see if they are participating!)

Wednesday: Leftovers or make your own

Thursday: Dinner with friends

Friday: Chili

Saturday: Burgers

Sunday: Pizza

We went ahead and started our homeschool last week.  I figured I’d wait until September or so but the kids have been getting restless and so it was time.  Plus we plan to take more breaks throughout the year like we usually do.  This year, I have a 10th grader, 6th grader, 3rd grader, 2nd grader, and a preschooler.

Many of you have messaged me for an update on my nephew.  He’s doing as well as can be expected given his incident.  You can always follow along on his Love for Levi facebook page to see more.  We have hopes that he will come home in a few weeks, but that is by no means the end of his need for care.

Here’s what is on our meal plan for this week:

Monday: Fajita Chicken Casserole, broccoli, grapes

Tuesday: Tacos

Wednesday: Brat Burgers, salad

Thursday: Breakfast for Dinner

Friday: Pizza

Saturday: Burritos

Sunday: Leftovers
