Today...

So I have been doing a lot of reading lately, reading other peoples blogs and thinking I really need to give my own blog just a little TLC. So here I am, another attempt at trying to be faithful to blogging. I think it would help me get things off my chest at times, and brag other times, so here I go again starting at today.

Today we had plans to go with Jeff's parents to Giant City Lodge to eat yummy fried chicken and all the fixins! So this morning we got up, and then we thought, since we're dressed semi-nice, and Jeff's parents will be here to meet up with us, we might as well get a family picture (since Bray needs one for school anyway).

I know, cute right?

Then we packed up and headed to eat. The kids always eat pretty well there and its one of the only restaurants we've taken them to because the food is served "family-style" so there's no waiting and no choosing. Even Evan got in on some mashed potato action, and he entertained the bus boys for a while.

This afternoon I went through the coupons, made a list, a weekly menu and went grocery shopping. This is something I really haven't been doing at all since Evan came along. I think I've maybe been to the grocery store 6 times since the little guy came into our lives. Its been so bad! We've been living off of peanut butter sandwiches. I wish I were kidding. I swear I could open up the pantry and hear crickets chirping! Well not anymore! I went to the big bad store with my coupons and filled my car with groceries. Now that sounds like an impossible feat, but I drive a station wagon on steroids that is packed with a full-size stroller, and three carseats so not so impossible now, right? I am just happy to say we have food in the house and I'm actually planning on cooking this week...hooray! So E.J. is crying, I'd better hop off here. I promise to be back soon.
