This is one busy month, but I know it is going to be a fun one too!
We are back safe and sound! I’m ready to get back into my routine with the boys. Traveling always throws you out of whack. Thanks for sharing your food menu- I am trying to do a better job planning out our meals this month. Knowing Dec is going to be super busy!!
Thanks Heather! Yay! I’m happy you are all home safe and sound. I hope that you all had a fantastic Thanksgiving 🙂 December is a very busy month, and the kiddos are getting so excited about Christmas!
If I were HALF this organized…I’d be dangerous! lol Just thought I’d leave a comment and say “hi.”
So…HI!!
Another MOPS Mom,
Tonya
Thanks Tonya! Thanks so much for stopping by my blog. I love to menu plan, and it really helps me out, Thade likes it too. Everyday he goes to the menu and asks “whats for dinner” 🙂
I am doing good at this point to figure out a week at a time but I am going to try a monthly menu. Do you go shopping by the week or buy in super bulk? I know heading down to Aldi would make it easier…and gas prices are letting me travel further again!
Thanks Stacey! I still shop by the week, it seems like I am always needing to run out for Milk and Diapers 😉 I like to make a big list for Aldi that would be the staple items for about 3 months. I make one trip and stock up the pantry. After that I try and menu plan around what I already have on hand, and pick up the other grocery items as I need them.
I’m so happy to see the lower gas prices too 🙂 That will definitely help out with the budget!
