Thanks & Meal Plan - Jan 1-20th

Thank you to everyone for your thoughts and prayers. Our new baby, Abigail, is doing wonderfully and completely healed from her pneumonia. We are just now trying to get our life back to normal after this crazy holiday season, birth and hospitalization.

We ended up going to Sams and I made my meal plan for the whole month, but since we bought in bulk it's a lot of the same things over and over again. Oh well, the plan is ready and we shouldn't have to buy more than apples and bananas for the rest of the month. Woohoo!
