We're starting the first full week of school this week with R as a 2nd grader. Last week was a fun start to school for R, but it was, truth be told, a bit of an adjustment. R came home exhausted each day, G was bursting at the seams each day to play with his best-brother-buddy R and I was thrust into remembering how going back to school can be an, eh-em, transition for us all.
G was sad each morning that R was leaving for school without him. R came home, needing a little down-time, and G was not happy that R wasn't jumping up and down to see him too. So all of us enjoyed a low-key weekend to regroup and gear up before this week began.
One side note from this weekend that made me smile and sentimental: my parents gave me back the old dollhouse I used to meticulously decorate and design. It hasn't been played with in nearly 20 years, and it is showing its age. Not sure when I will get time to repaint the walls or hang dollhouse wallpaper, but in the meantime, I am glad it is seeing some use:
All in all, we're ready for a new week and some new recipes:
Oven Baked Breaded Flounder, Pureed Cauliflower and Sauteed Bok Choy
Seafood and Vegetable Enchiladas
Layered Taco Salad
Slow Cooker Moo Shu Pork, Stir-fried Japanese Eggplant
Balsamic Herb Chicken, CSA Vegetables and Sides
Have a sweet week!
