What's cooking this week?

What's it called when you're so exhausted that your body actually hurts? I'm that. Dramatic, but true! This week kicked my butt! These days, when I'm not working and taking care of the babes...I'm either doing house stuff or planning Ella's first (craziness) birthday party. I realized that I haven't actually sat on my new couch and relaxed yet. Not for any substantial length of time anyway. Yes, I'm sitting on the couch now, and I'm relaxed...but this post is short and I've got stuff to do. Fine, enough whining... 

Tonight: Parmesan Crusted Chicken Caesar Salad
Monday: Not cooking
Tuesday: Tuscan Bean Soup
Wednesday: Thai Chicken and Pineapple Stir Fry
Thursday: Lemony Chick Pea Tuna Salad Sandwiches

This week I'm making an attempt at cooking healthier. Too many McNuggets have snuck into my diet over the past few weeks. They are just too convenient, and delicious! I'm getting back on track with a few of my favorite lighter recipes. Perfect timing - we officially emptied the fridge from our apartment and I'm fully functional over here now! Life without condiments was a bit of a pain, but McDonalds Habanero Ranch dipping sauce sure filled the void.

Our friends are coming over for a visit today and Ella will get to play with her little friend Chloe. Actually they play together all the time now because they go to the same day care, but I'll actually get to see them play and take a million photos! It should be a fun afternoon! Today, the only thing on my "to-do" list is to work on Ella's long overdue 11 month update, and I've got to order a few things for her very quickly approaching party! It's a fairly easygoing day, thank goodness! 

Check out Daddy and his little Minnie Mouse! We visited family at the Art of Animation Resort on Friday night. It was the perfect chance to put Ella in this adorable outfit. 

Happy Sunday!
