Meal plans and the week ahead

We have a little slower week this week than the weeks past, but we still have plenty of things going on. Plus, we didn't get as much done in Carson's new bedroom as we had hoped last week. So, hopefully we can make some good progress this week. We did get the floor waxed and polished and the little closet doors primed, at least.

Today we'll be going to church and making a stop at Home Depot afterwards. We need to get some caulk for the windows in Carson's new room and a closet organizer for his new closet. We might go pick up his dresser from my parents' house, too. We'll see what we feel like doing. Wednesday we have soccer. Friday is my flex day. Carson and I will be taking Jet to the vet in the morning for his annual visit. Then we'll go pickup the milk. We're planning to go to my niece's and nephew's basketball games on Saturday morning. And we're going over to a friend's house for dinner on Saturday night.  Otherwise, that's it for the plans this week.

Here's the plan so far... I'll be updating some of the linked recipes later this week to bring them up to WAPF standards, as well.

Have fun working on Carson's room. Can't wait to see it when it's done. Are you going to do anything with his old room once he's out of it?

The nursery will just be a storage room for a bit until we make up our minds as to whether we want to try to have a 2nd child. If we decide to try for #2, it'll be a nursery again. If we don't try for #2, we'll turn it into a guest bedroom and office.
