6 days and counting...

So, what do you get with a 9 month pregnant girl, two sick kids and a double failed attempt to make freezer meals including some incredibly charred chicken cordon bleu (don't leave your house and forget they're in the oven)? I don't know. I can't think straight right now. You'll have to tell me.

Luckily, I have a very wonderful husband who got home early tonight and helped calm the storm... and he didn't even laugh too hard when we got back from Walmart and realized that the food was still in the oven.

Besides all of that, I made the best honey lime enchiladas. Unfortunately, it didn't make enough for a freezer meal like I hoped it would, but they were delicious.

We're working out the bed situation with the kids... I moved all the clothes to the appropriate dressers (that takes some time)... I moved some of the toys... now Dave is out being my superman and getting another bed so that we'll be ready.

My house still smells like chicken cordon bleu... but luckily it doesn't smell as burnt as it looked. We are blessed. And my arms are asleep so I have to stop. Looking forward to holding my baby and getting feeling back in my arms... :)

Freezer meals = Sanity

I was inspired this morning to get myself in gear for next month when little Abby is born. So, I have a list of freezer meals that I'm going to be working on for the next few weeks.

I would love to hear if you have any suggestions. My friend, Amy, helped me come up with a good list, but I'm always looking for more ideas.

I made Chicken and Wild Rice Soup tonight with some breadsticks and it was sooooo good. I was able to fill three zip lock bags with the soup for my freezer. Sweet! Three meals done.

I think I'm going to try this one tomorrow. Looks good.... MMMmm.
