Meals
Just had a brilliant idea! For the past few weeks, I’ve been suffering at dinnertime. With a newborn, a 4 1/2 year old and an almost 3 year old, it is an understatment to say that 5:00 is a CRAZY time in our house. We are all tired, hungry and running extremely low on patience. There is always a lot of crying, screaming and time outs. All things that make it very hard to whip up a healthy dinner that my kids will actually eat.
Then, all of a sudden, I just realized the answer. I’m going to start cooking a warm, nutritious lunch and then will feed my kids PB&J for dinner.
Problem solved! Anyone else have any dinnertime suggestions?

Welcome Back…. I am panicking about the same thing, as my husband is constantly dieting so I already have to prepare 2 meals. I’m hoping the breastfeeding works for me, so I can stick with the just two for now.
@Stacey - Breastfeeding is great for losing the baby weight! Esp if you stick with it for several months cause they burn more and more calories as they get bigger.
We do that..it makes 5 pm easier!
glad to see you around… How are the 3 kiddos treating you?
