Happy Easter everyone. I hope you all had a great weekend ! Our weekend was pretty quiet...didn't do much really LOL.
On Monday Elliot and I went shopping and bought a chest freezer and a crock pot. Our fridge/freezer looks set to give up the ghost at any given moment, so we're trying to be prepared ! I'm also sick of only being able to buy enough food to freeze for about 2 weeks' meals (we shop every third week), so I am quite looking forward now to buying in bulk. Bulk buying will also save us money, which will be essential when I stop working.
Speaking of work, I only have 9 more working days to go of full time work -- though I will continue to go in a few days a week, or whatever I can manage. I am looking forward to finishing up though and getting at least a few days rest each week. In the time I am home before the baby comes I plan on pre-cooking lots of casseroles, pasta sauces and soups to put in the freezer to save me cooking when I come home with our new baby. I figure if I can put in a bit of effort now, I can spend more time enjoying my new son. This is also the reason we bought the crock pot. I figure if I can throw everything in it in the morning, I don't have to actually 'DO' anything to have a lovely dinner ready to be served at dinner time. Well, that's the theory anyway !
I had today (Tues) and also have tomorrow off work. Mum came over and we bummed around a bit. We made my craft robo cut out all the boxes for the baby shower thank-you gifts. Just need to assemble and fill them and they will be done :)
Anyway, gotta run...Biggest Loser is about to start !
Love to you all
xoxoxo
