Week 24
The weather has been kind of crummy this week, so I put my outside project on hold and decided to try and tackle a few of those freezer crockpot meals that we all have Pinned on Pinterest. Spending about $100 on meat, veggies, fruit, and misc mixes and spices, and 3 hours in the kitchen, I was able to make 8 days worth of fruit smoothies for breakfast and 22 crockpot meals. I also spent a half hour making pre-made snack bags for Zayden because like most kids, he eats more snacks then he does meals. This will definitely save me time because we are always out and about, and on the go, and grabbing a couple healthy snack bags will be much easier than throwing tons of food in my purse as we are walking out the door.

But to be completely honest, as I get further along in this pregnancy (31 weeks), I am getting more tired and lazy about making good meals every night. I'm sure once baby Sylas gets here, I will feel even more tired, so I'm hoping I will be able to do a round 2 of Freezer Food Day before he comes. It was so easy to do, I'm just hoping they all turn out yummy!
