Make your own Breakfast Sandwiches

My husband and I love McDonald's breakfast sandwiches, but I hate paying for them and I hate how greasy they are.  So I made my own and froze them so now they're available when we want them.

Ingredients:

English Muffins
Small Ham Steaks
Cheese (i used American)
Eggs
Onion

Directions:

Scramble eggs and onion and cook.
Place cheese on English muffin, add ham and egg.
Wrap in tin foil and place in freezer bags.









What to Pack in your Hospital Bags!

I searched google and pinterest, trying to find the best list of what to pack for when I had the baby. I found several good ones and combined them to make the best list for me. So here's what I packed in my bag, baby's bag and a bag for my husband. 

My bag:
Comfy clothes - sweatpants, t-shirts, socks, nightgown, underwear, comfortable bra (sports bra)
Toiletries - deodorant, brush, hair ties, make-up, toothbrush, sample bottles of shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. (most hospitals will supply the pads you need after birth)
Phone, camera and chargers. (I also brought my tablet so I could read)
Earplugs and ear buds. Hospitals can be noisy!
Snacks and drinks (cafeterias aren't always open)
Change for vending machines
Chapstick
Baby's bag:
Clothes (I brought 3 outfits and 2 nightgowns, plus the special outfit I got for her to come home in)
Hats and scratch mittens
Pacifier (if your using them)
Baby Blanket (hospital does provide this, but I wanted her own)
Also, depending on the time of year - coat, mittens
Hospital will provide : diapers, wipes, formula, bottles.  You only need to bring these things if your dead set on using a certain brand. Otherwise use what they offer and just switch to yours when you get home. 

Daddy's bag:
Change of clothes
Phone & charger
Deodorant & toothbrush
Book or magazines
I also brought a boppy pillow to make feeding a bit easier.  ☺
