This week we were able to get a LOT used up out of the pantry, and the freezers. I also baked up some Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chip Banana Bread, and some White Chocolate Chip Cookies for snacks. We did eat out twice, but only paid for one, since Joe's grandfather treated us to dinner one night. Overall, things are starting to dwindle slightly, which means we are using up what we have, and that makes me happy!
Sunday: Today Joe and I worked hard on getting things moved around, and disassembled to make room for baby things in the nursery! I also baked Banana Bread and Chocolate Chip Cookies, and did some tidying and laundry.
Breakfasts: Bagel for Me, Pop-Tarts for Joe
Lunch: Leftover
French Bread made into Grilled Cheese Sandwiches, Pickles
Monday: Today was cleaning day. I took care of the kitchen, bathroom, and laundry, and Joe cleaned the litter boxes and vacuumed the house. I dusted over the weekend, and did some tidying, so we were able to get our weekly chores done in a breeze. In the afternoon we worked some more on moving things around in the nursery, and clipping and filing coupons. Overall, a very accomplished day.

Tuesday: Today was errand running day at the Rogers' house! I'll be posting my shopping trips over the next few days. It amazes me how far I can stretch $40 when I have to.
Lunch: Out at Ruby Tuesday's while we ran errands :) We used a coupon towards our Salad Bar Combos, I had Broccoli and Cheese Soup with the Salad Bar, and Joe had the Ruby Mini's with the Salad Bar, with tip, $20! On the way home we shared a Jamocha shake from Arby's even if was only 10 degrees outside.

Wednesday: Today I worked in the office/nursery. I got the old desk cleaned out so that Joe can move it tomorrow. We also organized all of our misc electrical bits and wires into one small bin, and trashed quite a lot of junk we don't need anymore. Joe also worked on some projects in his work room while I did some housework, dishes, laundry, etc.

Thursday: Today Joe and I worked in the nursery some more. We moved a desk and vacuumed where it had been to get ready to steam clean that part of the carpet this weekend. Things are moving right along. I'm hoping to get the new desk moved in and organized over the weekend as well.

Overall a very productive day, until I had a morning sickness relapse in the afternoon which sent me to bed :( I ended up scraping our dinner plans and just got some take-out pizza, which we did use a coupon for, and my loving husband so graciously went to go pick up in the rain and wind -- gotta love him!
