- I am trying to figure out if it is just my child or if its because he is the oldest, but he cannot seem to entertain himself. I shouldn't make such a sweeping statement as he has his moments but more often than not Logan, my oldest, is asking me to do this or that with him. Even if he is playing by himself, then he wants me to sit and watch. I know I probably sound like a neglectful mom but I am not. I really try to make sure I spend time with my children daily and Logan gets his very own "mama time" every afternoon while Kellan sleeps. We usually play games, do workbooks and make crafts. Like today, we just got done doing a bunch of stuff and now he is having a hard time while I try to do this post. Maybe its the computer competing for attention. :)
- If you have preschoolers, I highly recommend this blog for great worksheets and learning activities. We have been having a ball with Valentine's Day packet.
- I am not sure what is going on with me but I am rebelling against myself. For the last two weeks I can't seem to follow my usual routine or stay in any of my habits. I must be in a stay-at-home mom rut.
- I have spent every extra minute this week researching a new printer. Ugh, I finally ordered one on Amazon. After so many hours, I finally just ordered one really fast. Like ripping off a band-aid. I decided if I waited any longer I would just spend more hours comparing and contrasting. I pray its the perfect one so that I don't have to do that again.
- If anyone has any great recipes that are freezer-friendly and kid approved, I would love to have them. I have a friend whose husband is leaving for 10 weeks for Afghanistan and she stays home with 3 little boys (the youngest is only 7 weeks). I would love to bring her some freezer meals but I have never really found that great recipe to use (I cannot make lasagna to save my life).
- I loved this article this week.
- As you can tell my life was a little boring this week so I sort of stretched to come up with 7. It must be the rut-thing.
Have a great and blessed weekend. Visit Conversion Diary for more quick takes.
Here are some good ideas for freezer/crockpot meals:

Tomorrow is a fresh new start, hopefully this week you can climb out of your rut!
Thanks Amanda. I am already researching the websites.
