Hey everyone!
I'm sitting here in disbelief that it is actually October. Our weather is an ongoing roller coaster so I never know what to expect from morning to evening. The first of the month also means I have less than a week to find, purchase, and wrap Isaac's birthday presents... my baby turns 8 in 8 days! To throw in a cliche exclamation, they grow up so fast!
I will admit these elementary years with the boys seem to get better and better. The amount of learning and growing they do each year amazes me.
What are some of the recipes you intend to make this month? Are you turning your crockpot out of hibernation? Are you simmering soups for the cooler nights? What about those football nights, what are your game-day go-to's? I LOVE a good recipe swap, so send me whatchya got!
Here's what the boys and I put together last week for our October:
1- Pork Stir Fry with veggies over Ramen noodles, sliced pears, bread & butter.
2- Spaghetti, garlic toast, green beans, applesauce
3- Chicken fajitas, mixed fruit
4- Breakfast pizza, carrots & ranch
5- Take out
6- Smoked pork loin, Mexican tortilla roll ups
7- Isaac's Birthday Party menu: Brats, Hot dogs, corn chips, carrots & ranch, apples & peanut butter, strawberry jello, orange slices, vanilla cake with vanilla frosting and ice cream; leftovers for supper
8- Glazed pork chops, veggies, apples
9- Birthday Dinner! Burgers & fries
10- Chef salads
11- Hospers Pancake Supper
12- Pizza Ranch with a birthday party
13- Chicken noodle soup, homemade beer bread
14- Meatballs, mashed potatoes, corn, grapes
15- Garlic parmesan noodles, breaded chicken breast, side salad
16- Eggs-in-a-hole, mixed fruit
17- Baked potato bar, broccoli
18- Danish goulash, biscuits
19- Leftovers
20- Grilled sausage and vegetables
21- Potato chip casserole
22- Tacos
23- Salmon burgers, chips, carrots
24- Cheesy white pizza casserole
25- Roasted chicken and vegetables
26- Leftovers
27- Smoked ribs or chops, rice, green beans
28- Chili soup
29- Chicken enchiladas
30- Crescent hot dogs, grapes, orange slices
31- Burgers

Flag football started for the boys last week. Eli stayed home with a headache :( Isaac had a blast and scored his first touchdown of the season!

I feel like this is a pretty accurate depiction of motherhood these days.....

Eli is starting his 3rd year of piano lessons and we're impressed with some of the songs he's learned so far! Isaac is in his first year and it's fun to watch the boys encourage each other in their work.
Have a great October!
