Weekly Meal Plan 8/18/2024

Thomas turns two on the 20th, probably will have his birthday Friday. I always stress way too much over kids birthdays.

On Avery's birthday in May, I was trying to make a barbie cake and I put the icing in the fridge. It was too hard and then I tried fixing it and it was grainy, then the cake was starting to crumble and the stress I felt in that moment was not proportional to the actual issue at hand.

Brad ended up finishing the cake and it turned out okay. Avery was thrilled with it so that was the goal anyway.

Mr. Thomas is probably going to get an excavator cake. He has this one loader left from a vehicle set that he carries around everywhere. I'll say "Thomas grab your dozer" and he'll pause, look down at his toy, look back at me and say "that's a loader"

Ok. sorry kid.

He also calls everything a shovel. His favorite shovel is the one he finds in my kitchen utensils drawer, the spatula. This can also serve as a hockey stick if needed. So he may be getting a spatula for his birthday.

Anyway, going to try to have lower cortisol levels for this birthday than for Averys. *deep breath*
