This week we're back to two kids instead of four. Last week my sister-in-law and I met and exchanged kids. She has six children, three boys and three girls. I took her girls and she took Mr. Lego, so we each ended up with four. I can say, without any doubt, she got the quieter end of that deal. The boys play video games, build Legos and rarely giggle. We had extended Barbie stories enacted, girly movies being watched constantly (and sung along with) and lots of giggling. I wouldn't trade these memories of family for anything, though.
See all the giggling going on? |
Now on to this week's menus:
Monday
Lentil and rice burritos, corn
Tuesday
Indian butter chicken, rice
Wednesday
Tasty tilapia, quinoa with vegetables
Thursday
Sausage veggie calzones
Friday
Lemony chicken, sesame broccoli
Saturday
Grilled steak, Greek lemon roasted potatoes
Sunday
Chicken corn chowder

That is such a fun idea!! I'm sure your kids loved hanging out with their cousins for a week. I'm visiting from Org Junkie's blog hop. Thanks for sharing your menu plan!
ReplyDeleteThat tilapia sounds great, thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteVisiting from OrgJunkie. I love the idea of kid swapping. I'll have to suggest that in my husband's family when my kids and their cousins are a little older. We have lots of infants and toddlers right now - too much work for me and not enough memory making for them at that age!
