I have a 3 year old and a 5 month old and I work 9-6 so I don't get home until 6:30.  I love my husband, but he (and my 3 year old) is the pickiest eaters known to mankind!  So here I am, at 6:30, my 3 year old is saying over and over again that she is hungry, the baby is crying because she wants to eat too, and I'm standing in front of the fridge saying, "oh, crap, what's for dinner?" 

So my SIL just gave me a wonderful suggestion..unlike any other I have heard yet.  She bought printable magnets (at like office max) and printed a bunch of cooked dinners that she knows she can make when she gets home from work.  She prints off a calendar and puts the calendar with the magnets on the fridge...she can switch them around and that way she has planned ahead.  So if she needs to take meat out in the morning, she doesn't really have to think too much about it.  I love this idea and I'm going to implement it by the end of this week!  I just thought it may help some of you out there too!

 Thats a great Idea....I think I have the same schedule as you! I too have a 3 year old but my baby is 3 months old! I will definatly try this idea! Hows it going with you?

 i like this idea too! very helpful!
