Menu Plan Monday - Aug 16th

My hubby is on afternoon shift for the next 2 weeks, so I'm really only making dinner for Hailey and I.  I don't usually have much time to get something on the table with because baby boy doesn't like being in his excersaucer for too long, but I need him to stay put while I'm in the kitchen cooking when Dad's not home to help watch him. So quick and easy meals are in order!

Monday -  Chicken strips, side kicks, and corn on the cob

Tuesday - Breakfast for dinner - Eggs, sausages and cheese on toasted English muffins, with celery and apples on the side.

Wednesday - Roast beef in the crock pot, mashed potatoes, corn

Thursday - Leftovers

Friday - Soup and egg salad sandwiches

Menu Plan Monday - Can't believe it's August!

Where is the summer going?  It just started, there's no way it's August already?  Craziness! Little more than 1 month left until my daughter starts Grade 2!

Tuesday -  BBQ Chicken, baked potatoes, corn on cob

Wednesday -  Pasta and meatballs, broccoli

Thursday -  Leftovers

Friday -  Out to eat

Saturday - BBQ hamburgers, fries, fruit

Menu Plan Monday - Dad's on afternoons

This is going to be a eat-whatever-is-easiest kinda week.

Dave is on afternoon shift this week, so it's just Hailey and I eating dinner together.

And since Dad's not here this week to help with the baby (who has decided it's not his best interest if mommy puts him down and walks more than 2 feet away from him or i'll screeeeech and whine my head off until I get her back ) this menu is not going to be anything grand.  I have about 20 minutes to get something on the table before big sister Hailey is just not a good enough substitute for mommy to keep baby Ryan happy.  The littlest ones make the rules don't they?!

Now, onto the main reason for this post.

Monday - I had left over meatball subs from yesterday's dinner

                Hailey doesn't like that, so I made her a muffin tin meal which I will post about separately

Tuesday - Chicken meat pies, noodles, green beans

Wednesday - Soup and Sandwiches (probably cream of mushroom soup because it's mine

                      and Hailey's favourite, and most likely grilled cheese sandwich to go with it)

Thursday - Slow cooker roast beef, mashed potatoes, corn

Friday -  leftovers

Saturday - Going to my mom's for dinner since it was cancelled last week

Pretty boring eh?! :) Dave is on day shift next week so hopefully it will be a more exciting menu next week when I have more help.

Menu Plan Monday - Getting back on track

That's IT I've had ENOUGH!

NO MORE wondering what's for supper at 4 pm.

NO MORE "oops I've been so busy, I didn't think about supper, can you go pick up something Hun?"

Ever since my son was born 7 months ago mealtime around here has been a mess, we've been eating more junk than I care to admit! It's just been so hard with a baby who only naps for 30 minutes at a time and still is breastfeeding every 2 hours day AND night. Not to mention taking care of my 7 year old daughter also, I've been a tired/busy mommy!

But enough is enough, I'll make a menu plan and try my darndest to stick to it!

Monday - Honey garlic chicken theighs with baked potatoes and corn

Tuesday - Mini english muffin pizzas (mmm we love these)

Wednesday - Grilled pork chops (not sure about sides yet, maybe rice and broccoli )

Thursday - Leftovers

Friday - Not sure.. We *might* be going to the zoo.. if we do we'll eat out, if we don't then we'll probably have BBQ Hamburgers

Saturday - We are going to my Mom's for  a family dinner

Next week I'll try to add links to my post
