Stocking Up the House!!!
It has been one crazy week! Unfortunately I haven't been able to make a new post, as we have had some family issues come up in the last week, and I was not in any state of mind to do anything, let alone write a post. I was way overly stressed out, which any momma knows, is never good when you're 9 months pregnant!
Now thankfully, we have survived the last week, with only a couple of break downs on my part. Yesterday, hubby and I went out to get groceries and last minute baby stuff to stock up the house!
Having a 4 year old in the house is tough enough as it is, but adding a newborn to the mix, well lets say we are going to be exhausted. Last thing I want to have to worry about is running to the grocery store, to get food, or diapers, etc.
So I went through our pantry, our fridge and freezer to see what we have, and what we need to survive the first 2 weeks of our little man being home.
I wrote down everything we needed, what to stock up on, and made a meal plan of sorts, that we could go to through the next two weeks and figure out what to make, as I don't believe we will be able to think to much on what we should make for dinner, with hardly any sleep.
After looking through the flyers, making my list, checking the damn thing twice, we set off at noon to get our shopping done.
We literally shopped till we dropped!
From 12pm we started, and never got home till 4pm. We hit up 6 different stores, because each one had stuff on sale that we either wanted or needed, and with most the stores being close to one another we didn't spend a whole lot on gas! Win Win!
Here's my list of groceries, household items, and everything else we bought!
