Adoption Nesting!

So... I will just give you a heads up, this post has nothing to do with adoption! Well, not a lot to do!

In preparation for the boys coming home I have teased Kelly that I really feel like I am nesting! Except I feel like I am awaiting twins! That I don't know at all! Ha! (not to offend any of you that have actually had twins, I am sure you did tons more work than I am planning for!)

Anyway, in preparation for our little men I am trying to act a if I am prepping for a newborn, since I have no idea how high or low maintenance the boys will be! As such, I am trying to do as much meal planning ahead of time as I can.

You may not know this but I have a major love for my crock pot! So much so that I have three of them! different sizes so that I can do a main course veggie and side dish all at the same time! I know sad really, but this is a practice I began when Kelly and I were first married and I was driving an hour one way to work! I would just pop something in there in the morning and it was done when I got home! Since then I have stumbled upon several great sights with recipes for freeze ahead crock pot meals!

I have decided this is what I will do to prep for the boys, I have used some online recipes and created a few of my own based on things I know my family loves (lets hope the boys like these things too!)

So began my Saturday escapades of meal prepping... while teen beach movie played for the second time in my living room! (ok I'll admit it, I might have enjoyed it as much as Tatum :) )

I did all of my shopping at aldi and was able to get everything I needed for two weeks of meals, plus breakfasts for just over $100.00 Pretty great!

*Please ignore my messy kitchen in the following pictures*

so far this is what I have made:

honey garlic chicken

teriyaki pork chops

chicken fajita tacs

Hawaiian pork chops

Carolina pork roast

Italian sausage spaghetti

swiss steak

ranch pork tenderloin

here are all of the crazy pictures below! Including crazy topless Blakely who had to "cheese" during all the prep! (No I am not a clean preparer!)


If you want a recipe I would LOVE to share! Just email me BizzyBzBoutique@gmail.com
