Backpack Barbecue

Happy little girls on a cold morning, even though Addison and I were both tired from a long night of not much sleep…

Met up with my friend Britteny for lunch at 4 Rivers today. This is the Six Shooter, with a grit cake on bottom, pulled pork, cole slaw, sauce, jalapenos & pickles, and DANG this was good. Britteny is eating super healthy right now, and just got meat & cole slaw, but the best part was that she brought her own sugar-free BBQ sauce with her today, packed in her little mini backpack, that she brought specifically for carrying the sauce. I thought it was hilarious, and I wish I would have gotten a picture of her and her backpack barbecue.

I found this little baby Chickpea on the bye-bye-buggy in the hallway when I got to school, and big sister Tater Tot was out on the playground going crazy and playing with her twin besties.

Emmie and Daddy played in the backyard, Addie napped in her car seat, and I got dinner ready.

I was already planning to make buffalo chicken for dinner tonight, and then I had a random thought this afternoon to make it into buffalo chicken tater tots, with melted cheese in the air fryer, kinda like nachos, but with tots. I told Jeff I feel like I don’t usually made super unhealthy food for our dinners, but this definitely fell into that category, but it was super delicious.

Emmie was karate chopping, for reasons I can’t remember…

Addie slept through her late afternoon bottle, so by the time she had this one at 7:30, it had been 5 hours since she last ate, and even then it was only 2oz. So after she finished one 4oz bottle, she was still acting hungry, so I made her another 4oz bottle, and she finished that one too, and we were shocked.

And then she passed out!

I grabbed her for cuddles and to get her ready for bed, and then she woke up on the way walking back to her room.

Pretzel is so cute laying next to Emmie, on our pile of clean clothes that need to be hung up…

Jeff got Addison back to sleep while Emerson and I went through her bedtime routine. Because I feel like I’ve been up since basically 3am (sleeping on & off in the recliner until 6am), I am now extremely tired and going to actually go to bed sorta early for once. Mama needs some sleep!
