Carter Soccer 2011

I'm behind. Understatement of the year. Better late than never? Here's a recap of Carter's soccer from LAST YEAR :) He's a lot better this year, but still working on controling those emotions! I have visions that some day he'll be that player in the dugout that throws a temper tantrum kicking and throwing equipment all over the place.

Meal Planning (Week of 27 Nov 2011)

Ugh, I have been eating whatever I want and even tough I'm running 20 miles a week the scale shows it. Maybe I didn't need to have a cheeseburger, bratwurst AND hotdog at the tailgate yesterday. Time to plan some healthy meals.

Sunday: Going to try making this meatloaf recipe with turkey instead of beef and individual sizes so they will cook faster. We'll see how this goes. + a bag of steamed veggies with rice

Monday: Mustard roasted salmon + couscous with tomato, cucumber and feta

Tuesday: Chicken, artichoke and spinach calzone (from cook's country) with marinara sauce

Wednesday: Chicken Picatta

Thursday: Prosciutto-wrapped pork tenderloin with herb pan sauce (from cook's country) + steamed veggies
