Menu ReVamp Monday
I've been doing Menu plan Monday for a while now, and it's been great, but honestly I have not been able to keep with the menu. I have started doing LESS cooking. Although I LOVE to cook, I've found that by REVamping the Menu, I can have dinner on the table everyday, but only cook 3-4 days a week, the rest of the days it's merely TOUCHING UP...
So, my menu this week will look a little more like... THIS...
So, my menu this week will look a little more like... THIS...

This should take the guessing out of cooking, save us some money when it comes to groceries shopping, and help me keep to the meals I CAN eat...

Question Of The Week
Multiples and More, offers a great little linky with a new question each week... I have seen it for a while now, but have never really joined in... Well, guess what??? I'm joining the Conga Line!!!!
This week's question is....
What do you do with your kids in the summer?
Well, the gremlins keep me insanely busy, and ADORE the water, we hit the beach, the pool, the parks, we camp, we bowl, and we play!!!!! I absolutely adore summer with my girls.
This summer we plan to spend a moth in the Dominican Republic. I am UBER excited, since it's been over 10 years since I've been back, and my family there has never met the gremlins. (A little scurd about the plane ride alone with them, but I'm counting on some good drugs... JUST KIDDING)
What do YOU do during the summer? What do YOU look forward to? What's the BIG plan THIS summer?
Please share, even IF you aren't a parent of multiples, I'd love to read your posts if you do one, please let me know in the comments as well..

Sometimes it's not ALL good news!!!
Yesterday was my blogiversary, I can not believe it's been 3 years!!!! I had ALL the greatest intentions of writing an awesome post, but I've really been slacking. I am eternally grateful for the outlet this blog has provided through the years. Between a deployed husband most of the time and being a first time parent to twin gremlins, this has been an amazing tool. I have met some amazing bloggy friends and followers. Unfortunately I have not been keeping up, and I'm sorry. We've had a few set back here in the looney bin, from our military move, problems with our tenants, then the computer poops out on me... and recently, my dad has taken a turn for the worse.
My father is a 15 yr liver transplant survivor, which in itself is AMAZING, and we are eternally grateful for those extra years. If I look back and think, I NEVER expected him to walk me down the aisle, and he did, NEVER thought he'd see grandchildren, and he has 9, including my two whom we thought we'd NEVER be able to have children. So, in retrospect we HAVE been blessed. Needless to say, a few weeks ago he was taken to the hospital for what he believed may have been kidney stones, only to find out it MAY be Lymphoma. Our family is currently trying to process A LOT! But, we pray and have hopes that everything works itself out, he is in the hands of the medical professionals and the Lord.
I may not have always had the best relationship with my father, but he IS my daddy and this is killing me. I try to be strong. Strong for my daughters (who I am coming to terms with the fact that they MAY NOT remember the man I called dad). Strong for my brother and sister, who are trying to process this the best way they can. Strong for my MOM, who I'm sure is living her own personal hell right now watching her companion going through all this and knowing life will NEVER be the same again, and Ultimately strong for my DAD.
Thank you all, for understanding WHY I haven't been blogging these past few days.
