Meatballs and more

Last week for dinner on Sunday, we made spaghetti and meatballs. That might sound like some fancy, takes-a-lot-of-time meals to some, but in this house that is most definitely not the case! The sauce comes from a beautiful plastic jar (from Costco, of course). Just pour in the pot and heat. The meatballs? Yup, they're from Costco too. The frozen kind that you can place on a plate in the microwave for 3 or 4 minutes and they are hot and yummy and you'd never guess they only took you 3 minutes to make. That is my kind of easy meal!

The fun thing about eating meatballs in this house is that Joe has a passion for meatballs like you wouldn't believe. Forget the pasta or anything else we are having. If meatballs are on the menu, that is about all Joe will eat. I think he ate about 10 last Sunday. He is a meatball nut!


One of his sillier moments--he likes to put one meatball on each end of the fork

Evie decided that night that she wanted to sit with the girls on the bench. Sometimes this works out, and sometimes not. Well, this turned into one of those "not" nights when Evie slipped while reaching for something and fell off the bench and onto the tile floor. Luckily she didn't hit her head, but she was pretty scared. The fact that she had barely napped at all didn't help either. Luckily daddy was there to pick her up and help her calm down!


Evie slept the rest of the night peacefully!

Mmmmm... what a yum dinner. Easy too, so that makes it that much yummier! We'll have to try the meatballs from costco! Yeah, Sydney fell off the bench at the park last week. They want to be so big, but aren't quite there yet! :)
