freezer stocking

Since these boys are coming sometime within the next few weeks to month and a half I figured I'd better prepare for hibernation.  It at least felt like that!  Andrew was in India for a week so I made a ridiculous trip to Sam's Club and looked like a crazed pregnant woman.

You can also see I picked up a lot of snack foods since nursing twins means I'll (potentially) be eating 3500 calories a day! Woah!

For the whole week I baked and cooked some, but mainly assembled freezer ready meals, meats, veggies, and fruits so we can eat even when we're both exhausted from little ones.

our kitchen was a mess!

3 sheet pans of roasted chicken breasts and thighs to shred

Here's the freezer inventory sheet I used to keep track of what I made and how much is in the freezer.  So when we have few functioning brain cells and two crying babes, we can figure out what we've got!
