Another week of school lunches
Another week in the books. It wasn't our best week ever, we're still fighting that fall school germ season, but we managed to get through it. One of my kids has asthma, so the cold season that makes the rest of us just uncomfortable can hit her pretty hard. And we had a couple of hard nights. I'll tell you, making these lunches the night before definitely saved my bacon a couple of days - after being up much of the night with a sick kiddo, there's no way I'd be making lunch in the morning. My kids would have been stuck with a school cafeteria lunch.

Oh it's been another crazy week here, but then again with 4 kids is there such a thing as a week that's not crazy? These are our lunches from last week - schedule wise last week was actually pretty normal for this time of year, all four kids healthy and at school.

A new revelation this week: make a lunch that gets the kids involved in their meal! I was just feeling a little lazy and didn't want to take the extra minute to actually make the sandwiches myself. So I just cut up all the stuff and put it in their containers, and told them they get to make their own sandwiches. It turned out to be one of my most popular lunches ever! They all loved it, and they were all so proud to come home and tell me that they made their own sandwich. They all ate more of that lunch than just about any one I've ever packed. That idea will definitely be going in regular rotation!

A week late on posting lunches from last week - we've had a few sick kiddos around here and I don't get much time in front of the computer. But the work goes on, lunches are still made and eaten.
