For Dinner this Week...

Monday: Chicken Crescent Rolls (Tasty Kitchen)/Salad/Fruit
Tuesday: BLT's/Chips
Wednesday: Tacos/Beans
Thursday: leftovers
Friday: Chicken Alfredo?

Just remember that it's OKAY to make changes to your menu if your plans change throughout the week. I do it all the time. Randy started his new job this morning, and I am so happy for him. We will have a more normal schedule, and he gets to sleep in a little! Life is good.

The baby is moving like crazy, but I'm glad that things are going so well!

Big News

My wonderful husband Randy graduated with a Master's Degree in Instructional Design in May, 2009. He has been working as a bus driver, and trying to find a full time position ever since. Recently, he has worked as a contractor for the LDS church designing training materials for the Family History Department and he has LOVED it! We were really praying that he would get a full time position there...

So this morning, Randy got a phone call. He was offered a full time position with the church!!! He was so excited, and called me right away. We were both crying on the phone because we were so happy. I am so proud of him for working so hard, and finally getting a full time position in a job that he loves. He is amazing in every way, and I couldn't be more proud! Congratulations, Randy!

Menu 7

So apparently, nobody really cares about my baby bump :) Just kidding. But I finally post pictures and get ZERO comments? Come on people, you all know you like comments!

I didn't post this week's menu yet because I wanted everyone to see the pictures. But alas, here it is:

Monday: Burgers and Fries
Tuesday: Turkey Casserole/biscuits/beans
Wednesday: I surprised Randy and told him we were going to Five Guys!
Thursday: Ate at mom's
Friday: Leftovers or whatever I can find. Randy will be eating with his buddies.

As you can see, it's been an interesting week, and this menu has been greatly revised. That's okay!

Baby Bump

Here are the pictures that I promised a long, long, time ago.

10/23 Just barely showing...

12/6 Still, just barely showing...

12/23 A little more...

12/26 Getting bigger...

1/02 This one just looks like fat.

2/07

And voila! The Belly (as Randy calls it). This sweater does a really good job at accentuating my belly. This is the most recent picture, and you can tell that just within the last few weeks my belly rapidly expanded. I can't believe that I am just going to get bigger and bigger. I was so excited last night because I went to Motherhood and Maternity (Randy forced me) and found some awesome LONG maternity jeans! I have been very uncomfortable lately with some of my clothes, and this was a glorious find. Baby Boy Hoffman is doing great, and is moving a TON. My back has kind of been bugging me, but as long as I can get up and stretch it hasn't been too much of a problem.
