Weekend Edition | Sunday Pastitsio + A Hot Weekend

I think we’re starting to get into a good routine. The beginning of the year is always a rough start! We’ve added in homework, cheer practices, adjusted the meal plan to our busy evenings + tweaked our nighttime routine (creating space for relaxation is 100% a must for us!).

Guess that’s just going with the flow of life, you ride the wave or get crushed. I’m getting better at learning to ride 😉

It was hot as heck this weekend. Sofia had her cheer pool party, it was so much fun! Mike came with us, he was 1 of 2 guys that came!!! I adore his dedication, he truly is an amazing Dad. There’s never any pushing or guilt tripping him in to join us, he just wants to be there! I realize that’s a hard quality to find in a partner these days and I’m incredibly grateful. (Mike if you’re reading this, don’t let my moment of kindness get to your head!)

Sunday was cheer practice, laundry, grocery pickup, prepping for the week ahead and I made pastitsio (it’s entirely way too hot out for a hearty meal but I’m trying to will Fall into existence!)

Here’s what we’re cooking this week!

MONDAY: nuggets, Mac + cheese, broccoli
TUESDAY: bbq baked salmon, rice pilaf + French beans
WEDNESDAY: turkey tacos, jalapeno beans + salad
THURSDAY: slow cooker bean + ham soup
FRIDAY: out

Hope you have a great week!
