Meal Plan Monday

Mr. LL is really wanting to eat healthier, so I'm trying to work with him. I'm not really in a position to go on a diet, but I can get most of our meals to a healthier place. The snacks I'll just keep at work so he won't be tempted.

Breakfasts

Hard boiled eggs, grits (for me), coffee

Monday

Chicken and Asian chopped salad

Tuesday

Steak and salad (+ baked potato for me)

Wednesday

Chicken and roasted veggies

Thursday

Crab Cakes and Asian chopped salad

Friday

Leftovers

Lunches

Salads, hummus, cheese sticks, fruit with water

Snacks

Hummus, bacon, pepperoni, berry smoothies, eggs

Goals - ALL the things

Today is the day of the baby shower my best friend, Annie (over at PaperDollDigital) is throwing me! So I'm going to keep this kinda short. I have a lot I want to focus on this week: getting things ready for Lazy Baby, cleaning out the back room, taking care of myself, eating well (with Mr. LL, more on that tomorrow), and exercising. Here's hoping I'm not just in a manic-nesting mood right now.

My daily tasks are:

• Make the bed EVERY DAY. 
• Put away the clean dishes in the morning.
• Spend 10 minutes a day on dishes.
• Do something laundry related every day.
• 10 minute pick up before bed.
• Journal
• Meditate

For my weekly tasks:

• Clean the bathroom
• Dust 
• Walk 4 days a week.

Checking In

FOCUS THIS WEEK: Spend quality time with friends, family and especially Mr. LL. So far so good!

My daily tasks are:

• Make the bed EVERY DAY. 
• Put away the clean dishes in the morning.
• Spend 10 minutes a day on dishes.
• Do something laundry related every day.
• 10 minute pick up before bed.
• Journal Today was the first day this week that I actually got around to doing this and meditating. 😕
• Meditate

For my weekly tasks:

• Clean the bathroom
• Dust 
• Walk 4 days a week. Didn't walk Monday because I was getting over a cold/allergies. Didn't walk yesterday because it was Mardi Gras (didn't do much of anything out of the house, actually). Was going to walk today, but slept through BOTH of our alarms. Meh.

GETTING READY FOR BABY

PHASE #1: COMPLETE

• Get organized. 
• Clean out the crib space. 

PHASE #2: COMPLETE

• Get the crib + changing table assembled. 
• Wash all the baby clothes/blankets/etc. 

PHASE #3:

• Make appointment with pediatrician. 
• Buy a few more maternity pieces. – Check.
• Buy a couple of nursing bras. – With all the parades that have been going on around here, it's been hard to go shopping. Now that they are all done, I'm hoping to get this done on Saturday.
• Baby showers – Baby shower this Sunday!
