Currently {April 28, 2014}

Thinking about this week's menu plan. Last week, I had NO desire to go grocery shopping, but thankfully, I did not need to since we had enough groceries. On Monday morning, I plan to go early enough in the morning while Drew is still home, so he can watch Charis. Plus, I only made one freezer meal; this week, I'd like to make at least 2-3 freezer meals. We'll see how that works out.

Reading currently nothing, but I'd like to read/listen to The Book Thief, and am also looking for simple, easy ideas of books I can read after Lil' J's birth. I remember reading at least 3 books while nursing Charis her first 4-6 weeks of life. Do you have any good, simple book ideas?

Watching Pride and Prejudice. Of course, it's the one with Colin Firth, or as people who don't like that movie, "Oh, that's the 6 hour version."

Thankful for the next few days. Each day I'm pregnant means more time to spend with Charis before Lil' J is born. Yes, I'm looking forward to his birth, but I'm also treasuring my remaining time with Charis as an "only" child. Only is in quotes because even though Lil' J's not born, I'm still a mother of two, just without the juggling of everything. We've been going to the park a lot more, mainly because the weather is so gorgeous, and I want to get Vitamin D. Thankfully, I have not gotten a sunburn yet. I hope this trend continues.

Saturday morning at the park.

What I often do at the park. I'll enjoy knitting during my
free time, while I still have it.

Charis tried {but failed} to use the monkey bars.

One of my Facebook friends posted a picture of
cheesy, bacon fries, and upon seeing the picture
started craving them. But, we only had potatoes,
so I made roasted potatoes and chili, then
served them with cheese.
Led to satisfied craving.
