Last week I didn't follow our menu plan exactly.  There were a few nights that I switched the meals around, but no biggie!  We had a busy week last week plus a wonderfully lazy PJ day and survived it without any new sickies!  Thanking God for answering prayers for continued health.  I think we are all finally getting over the cold virus.
For more menu ideas, visit here.  Have a great week!  




This week is another week like last week- school, MOPS, BSF and normal daily activities.  Nothing too exciting.  I have been very busy here at the house.  Cleaning, "decluttering" and trying to get ready for yard sales and consignment sales.  I have been getting the boy's clothes organized so that I know what to purchase for upcoming seasons at the many consignment sales our town has next month.  I do this twice a year.  I have also gone through all the things that Baby Bean has outgrown and I have decided to get rid of/sell a lot of his stuff.  Most of it has lived through three newborns, so I found lots of stained items.  Even if we were to have another beautiful  baby boy, we couldn't use the majority of the things.  Just too nasty!  Also, since all of my boys have been born in fall/winter months, they haven't generally had anything fancy or nice to wear since its been cold.  I will hang on to one or two sentimental outfits, but the majority of it is sleepers and onesies!  Our house is overflowing with boys clothing. I keep it very organized in Ziploc storage bags, BUT after 6 yrs of clothing and hanging on to almost ALL of it, I am running out of easily accessible storage.  So, I have decided to de-clutter (ONCE AGAIN) and get rid of stuff!  If or when we do have another child, I will just replenish the newborn stash by shopping at yard sales and consignment stores and it will be according to that child's birth "season".  I am looking forward to having this part of our lives organized and under control!

Grinning and happy as can be in the new to us jogging stroller...
Giving me a flower- be still my heart....
My handsome Hubbie.... with his coffee....
So happy to be OUTSIDE!!!!

Since none of my posts look quite as good without a picture, I decided to add a few!  My 4 cuties at the park this weekend!  Be still my heart!  I am so blessed to be the only gal- sharing my life with 4 men!  I just love it!!!  

It was a little chilly this weekend, but it wasn't raining so we seized the opportunity and ran outdoors to walk by the river and play on the playground!

So glad to know being the only girl with 4 men can be so great! There is such a huge chance that I will be in the same shoes. I am already preparing myself for that!

I wish it had been warm enough around here to play outside! What kind of jogging stroller did you end up getting?
