The View of a 30-Something Mom of two

Menu Plan Monday


I missed meal planning last week. We had an extremely busy week and I don’t think I made dinner twice. Unless heating up pizza in the microwave counts? We had a ton of leftovers from Bennett’s birthday and that’s what we munched on the whole week. We eventually had to stop eating pizza and spaghetti though. We went to this lovely restaurant on Saturday night with some friends and it was absolutely delicious, and last night we had some good ol Boston Market. 
We were super excited to find these at our local Target. Seriously they are delicious!


I’ve been struggling with migraines. Seriously, they are back guys. I am trying to up the magnesium in my diet to see if maybe that possibly helps–it has to. I’m over these migraines and I’ve only had them about a week now. We have my husband’s cousins in town this week so this menu plan is easy and feeds a lot of people. Oh, and those brownies? Sweet Potato Brownies! I’m pretty excited to try.

The sweetest mornings are spent with these three. The sweetest mornings are spent with these three.

Today my sweet baby turns 8. He has taught my so m Today my sweet baby turns 8. He has taught my so much about being a mother, and I love watching him grow every year. He’s a sweet kid, who loves to be silly. He likes his alone time to play, but also loves when his brother plays with him. He surprises me daily with all the things he knows, and I’m so blessed we’re going on our third year of learning together. He loves his baby sister something big, and she puts up with his shenanigans. We all love to watch him play and grow in baseball, and watching his skills develop over the years has been fun! Happy birthday sweet Bennett! 🎂

I kept thinking about party favors, and after chatting with some friends about ideas—decided on this! I loved that I wouldn’t be handing out candy or other items that may end up just thrown away. Also, ice cream was always served with cake as a kid so what better way to get your ice cream later 😉

Also, any other moms out there that their kid missed their siblings more than you? 🤦🏼‍♀️ oh well, he enjoyed it and his teacher is literally the sweetest thing! How is your first week going? Any case of the kids say the craziest thing? I love the first day of school, and it’s such a special moment to watch and see how each child takes the day and runs with it. 💙
