Our Menu Plan This Week (Baby Week!)

I can’t believe it – the week I have been waiting months for has finally arrived. We’re going to have a baby on Wednesday! I am so, so excited to meet the little girl that has been keeping me up nights, making me eat chocolate ice cream at 3am (yes, I am totally blaming her for that!) and has a little brother that is also very excited for her arrival.

My mom will be coming over Tuesday night and staying for a week or so to help with Elliott and the baby. So for the 2-3 nights I will be in the hospital, it’s up to her and Richard to decide on what they want to eat those days. I’ll be stuck eating hospital food (unless I can get Richard to sneak in something better for me!).

Note: Our menu plan starts on Saturday, the day we usually purchase groceries.
