Sitting down to plan our upcoming meals each weekend has really been helping me to nail down some routine in our week. Instead of scrambling every Monday morning for groceries or stopping by the store every evening, I order them online on Sunday evenings and pick them Monday morning after dropping...

Happy Sunday night. + Happy Earth Day! It's been a LONG week so we took the weekend off from anything too crazy (besides tackling the huge chore of cleaning out our garage!). We had a lunch date to our favorite cuban restaurant, we stopped by a newly renovated park in our area, I grabbed dinner...

With one kid out of town last week and the other in a stage of "picking and grazing all day without actually eating any real meals", I cooked up some dinners that were a little different than our usual but new-found favorites for Manny and I. This week? It's just me and the 2 picky kids which means...

It's another Sunday night where I'm up late catching up on things (like writing down what I need to do this week and placing our weekly grocery order!) and the house is finally quiet except for reruns of Dawson's Creek playing in the background. Lia spent the past spring break week with her grandparents...

I have had plans in the back of my mind (and a gallon of paint in our garage) waiting on me to finally start on Lia's bedroom makeover. It needed a fresh coat of paint and lately she's mentioned that the current pink is just "too light".  We tend to tackle projects while the kids are out of...

Books are a favorite around here! On a good week, I can go through at least one book. And the kids? They pretty much sleep with piles of them. We'll hear a loud thump in the middle of the night and 90% of the time it's just a book falling out of one of their beds!  Since I already share books...

Dinner ideas this week came together quickly. The husband helped with a few and since L is with her grandparents for the week, I only have to appease one picky kid at the dinner table! So, we focused on meals that M and I really wanted to eat and I can easily pick them apart for Nico. Shredded...

One more school day until spring break, friends! The weather here is cool one day and hot the next, but there's no snow and the neighborhood pool is opening this month so there's that! Spring break is just the thing we need to hold us over until summer vacation. We don't have any big plans - L is...

Is anyone else a little "eh" on the school fundraiser subject? Let's sell x amount of product to every single person you know to raise money and then do it all over again next year. I just don't get it. L goes to this really great local public school though and instead of selling cookies...

Happy Wednesday! The weekend was great and Easter was so relaxing but I still feel like we didn't catch up on sleep. I've been yawning all day!  Lia woke up Sunday morning so excited to see if the Easter bunny stopped by and when she saw that he did, she said he did "wonderful"! Their...

Happy Monday! I hope you babes had a great Easter. We had a relaxing, sugar-filled day with a small egg hunt at home and a feast (as Lia calls our fancy meals!). Then, our celebration stretched to the very end of the day for a late evening cookie making session (hence the day late post!)...

Last week I attempted to revive my meal-planning skills and it went surprisingly well! We stuck to our plan except for the one night I forgot we had dinner plans out with friends. All in all, it was an easy week on the dinner front! This week we have a couple of busy nights so I'm going for...
