Weeekly Meal Plan

Hello Hello!

We've been busy having a baby GIRL and all so we've been blessed to receive some awesome meals from friends and have been recycling some meal plans. Little Miss just turned a month old, so we're slowly falling back in to our old routine and that means back to some new plans! Here's our plan for this week. Wish us luck as we attempt Trader Joe's with our gaggle of kids today.
