Outsourcing Jobs at Home: Kids + Index Cards - Duration: 10:37.

- Can you imagine if your family

just miraculously was being fed every week

and the grocery shopping was being done

and you really had minimal to totally hands off

in the whole process?

Well I'm gonna share with you

the tried and true system that we use

in our own house, and how I really am limited

to about 20 to 40 minutes each week.

Instead of the previous 14 days I used to spend a year,

that was throughout the year.

But, the weekly hour allotment added up

to 14 days of my time.

So, let's get started.

First off, I'm gonna share with you

how we get the planning part done, all right?

This I have 100% delegated,

it is off of my plate completely,

and let me tell you, it is

such a great experience for families.

So all you need, and you can tweak this

in any way that works for you.

This is where, you know your family dynamics,

you know what's gonna work for you,

so please adjust accordingly.

What I do is,

I was running into the what's for dinner,

I don't want that, can I have something else,

can I, really, do we have to eat that again?

And I was like, hey, I'm putting in

a lot of effort on this,

and it's not exactly having the best response.

So what I did was, I gave my husband

and my six-year-old a stack of index cards.

And I said, okay guys, I want you

to decide what we're going to eat this week.

And what they do is they put the name

of the recipe at the top of the index card.

Then they put the ingredients that they need

for whatever that meal is,

this one happens to be pulled barbecue,

and they put the ingredients underneath the recipe,

or just the name of the meal,

so some things you're not gonna have a recipe for.

Now, the nice thing is, we, for a whole week,

we'll pick out five meals.

Because between cooking it for a family of four

and lunches and leftovers,

five meals is perfect for us.

And we usually end up ordering pizza

or something throughout the week.

So that is the very first step,

is put your family in charge.

Let them say, what do you want to eat this week.

Now, here's some additional, really fun ways

that you can incorporate learning

and different experiences into your meals.

First off, give your kids and your significant other,

spouse, whoever, give 'em a set of cookbooks.

Maybe you have 'em in your home,

maybe you pick 'em up at the library,

maybe there's one you've been wanting to try,

so order it off of Amazon,

but grab, let them just look through the cookbooks.

And this, Kip loves doing this,

he's six, he will look through the recipe books

and he'll say, I wanna make this,

or I wanna make that, perfect!

If you do that, so if you're using

a recipe book, I will come up with an abbreviation

and then the page number and you add that to the card.

These cards are gonna become long term,

so the more information you can give yourself,

the easier it's going to be.

So one, it gets kids reading,

it gets them looking at pictures,

it gets them exploring.

And it puts them in an ownership role

in terms of, they are playing a role

in something that they probably

have been pretty passive at.

Like, hey, here, this is what's for dinner,

gets it off of your plate.

Now, don't give them cookbooks

that you're like, ugh, I don't wanna cook

anything out of that, don't do that!

Choose the stuff that you like.

You could also do this for anything on the internet.

Let them go exploring if you have a subscription,

I happen to have one to the Forks Over Knives

meal planning, like annual meal planner.

So Kip can go in there, he can put some recipes

that he likes, and then we just add

like, chicken or fish to recipes,

we're not a totally vegan or vegetarian household,

I just try to get us eating as healthy as possible.

So that is just the meal planning portion.

How many meals do you need for the week,

and then putting them on a card.

Now, again, that's the part you can tweak.

For us, Kip is learning to write,

he is learning to read, he's in kindergarten,

so the cards are great because he can practice

spelling words, we can sit there and do it with him.

So even though we are technically meal planning,

we're also learning, we're spending time as a family,

we're able to be creative, we're able to expand

beyond our normal, like what we would eat

all the time,

the ruts that you kind of get stuck in.

Now, once you have this part done,

and this part, I should mention,

when you're doing it, you wanna think about

who is the best person to meal plan?

Because, it might not be you.

It was me for years and years,

and I'm like, this is not, this is silly.

I really don't care what we eat,

and I have other people that really do,

and they voice their opinions.

In a very respectful way, but they're still

voicing their opinions, so guess what?

They are the perfect person to do the meal planning.

You also wanna look at when is the best time

for them to do it.

Pick a time that's not rushed,

that you're not tired or stressed,

or up against a deadline.

For us, it's Sunday afternoons.

There's not a lot going on, Chris and Kip

can take a half an hour to an hour

and take their time in doing it.

So, that is key, is who's the best person,

and when is the best time for them to do it?

Once they have the meal planning done,

then you gotta actually get all the groceries, right?

Well here is where I challenge you

to really think about how can you completely

get grocery shopping off of your plate.

Now, depending on where you live,

you may have already done this,

or you've been doing this for a long time.

Where I live, we just got grocery delivery

in our like, area, so our grocery stores

now will deliver directly to my home.

And this is so key.

So once you have your ingredients,

I encourage you, see if there's a service

like shipped.com in your area.

I know in New York, it's called Seamless,

in LA they also have Seamless.

We don't have that, but we have shipped.com.

And Chris can look at the ingredients,

then he looks in the kitchen.

What do we already have that's in the fridge

or the pantry that we don't need

to actually get from the grocery store?

Anything that we still need,

he logs into shipped.com,

he enters in the groceries and the quantities,

and then we decide what's the best delivery time.

So, when you're thinking about your groceries,

who is the best person to be doing that?

Now, for us prior to shipped.com,

it was Chris, he gets up crazy, ridiculously early

in the morning, like 3:30, and goes to the gym.

It's crazy, ridiculously early!

And then he would do the grocery shopping afterwards.

So there were no lines, the shelves were stocked,

he was able to get in, get out very efficient,

I didn't have to go with the boys

or find time during the day to go,

he was the best person to do the grocery shopping.

So, in your home, who is the best person

to do the grocery shopping?

Do you have teenagers?

Do you have college-aged kids?

Do you have a spouse or significant other?

Or is it you?

Do you have a system like Shipped

that you could outsource all that time

to somebody else?

That's the second part, is you have your meals,

you look and see, okay what do I already have

in the kitchen, you don't need to order that again,

you have the groceries.

So you get the groceries however you're gonna get that done,

and really and truly, one of the biggest wastes

of your time is grocery shopping.

Even if you enjoy it, I do enjoy it,

it is the biggest waste of my time.

Really anywhere from two to four hours each week

is how much I would spend

getting dressed, getting the kids in the car,

going to the store, doing the shopping,

checking out, loading the car, driving home,

unloading, and dealing with children.

So at a minimum, it's two to four hours.

I could do a lot in my life

with an extra four hours,

hence how I bought back 14 days of my life

with this system I'm explaining to you guys.

So I set the delivery date

when it's most convenient for me.

So for us, the best person

to unload the groceries and put them away is me.

The best time for me to do this

is a weekday when my youngest, who is two, is napping.

Absolutely the best time.

My grocery angel shows up at my garage door,

they bring the groceries right into my kitchen,

I unload it, I'm done in maybe 15 minutes.

And so that's why we set the delivery time

for when it's best for my calendar.

A weekday, during naptime,

is when our groceries get delivered.

So that rounds out your meals and getting the groceries.

Now, next I'm gonna share with you

how we do the preparing, the cooking,

and the cleaning up.

But before that, I am really curious to know

how do you do this in your home?

Do you have time-saving tips and tricks

you would like to share with us?

Because it's something that happens every week.

We're constantly doing this.

Feeding our families, and doing meal planning

and grocery shopping, and if we're not careful,

we are giving away crazy amounts of our time

that, it's really one of the easiest things

to quickly get a reign on,

or reign it in, and buy it back,

so you aren't wasting that time

but instead, you are investing it

so that you can spend it doing other things

that you really and truly enjoy.

I am thrilled that I could share this with you,

and I will see you again really, really soon.

Bye for now!

stay tuned

hi I'm Dan and welcome to parent pacifier on this channel we help new and

soon-to-be parents with product reviews stories tip videos and how to's just

like this one so if you're new here consider subscribing and hitting that

Bell icon so you never miss a video tip number one for getting good sleep when

you have a newborn you sleep when they sleep

that doesn't happen you got to do the dishes you got to do the laundry

you got to vacuum the rug you got to take a shower the dogs got to get their

nails clipped you gotta prepare to work tomorrow you got to clean the gutters

you got to take the dog to the vet your mother-in-law is coming over a sweep the

stairs iron the clothes put on the sheets we're running out of diapers got

to make the shopping list you got to shoot your YouTube video clean the pooped

in clothes that you forgot about steam clean the rug you got to clean up the

toy paint the walls fix the roof pay your taxes clean out the Nosefrida steam

the bottles you gotta like comment and subscribe on our YouTube channel plan

the baby's first month birthday party you got to find those lost socks in the

dryer alright since sleeping when they sleep is really the biggest myth in all

of parenting here's the real tip one one night on and one night off moms take one

night dads take the other night it's a shifting sacrifice but this way each one

of you get at least one night's full rest while the other takes care of the

baby throughout that night tip number two shift work mom takes one part of the

night and dad takes the other for instance I may take the 9:00 p.m. to

3:00 a.m. shift and Amanda takes the 3:00 a.m. shift to 9:00 a.m. shift work

is great because you always know that you're gonna have those few hours of

sleep when the other one takes over tip number three have the bassinet in the

room this way you could hear when the baby's crying and you don't have to go

that far to calm them down especially for nursing moms you could just take the

baby right out of the bassinet and begin to nurse without having to get up and

waking yourself up so much tip number four recruit help maybe you ask your

mother or mother-in-law or trusted friend to come over for a few hours so

that you could get some shut-eye and they could take care of feeding or

cleaning the baby you can also recruit some help to go do

the grocery shopping for you or do some other chores around the house so that

you could get a couple hours of shut-eye friends are always willing to come over

and help where they need be willing to take that help so that you could get

that sleep tip number five just lay down even if

you don't fall asleep you'll be able to get some rest get off your feet and

clear your mind put the phone away put on some music put the lights down and

just rest as the baby's resting this will help you get that energy that you

need to make it through the rest of the day tip number six don't feel bad about

declining visitors Amanda and I both love to host we love to have people over

and enjoy time together but sometimes you just need to say no because you need

to get that rest it's important it's important for your marriage it's

important for your baby and important just to be healthy so sometimes you have

to say no in order to take free up that time especially if they're not gonna be

helpful to help you clean and do the chores or take care of the baby so that

you could get some rest tip number seven don't drink as much

coffee okay so coffee is our best friend if you need

to drink as much coffee as you want but you may want to cut back on some of the

caffeine so that you're not feeling like you always need the caffeine to keep

going it'll actually make you more tired in the end tip number eight limit the

length of nap time for your newborn during the day it may be very tempting

to let your newborn sleep as much as they can during the day because then you

could get that nap and it could be helpful here or there but it's important

to shift their circadian rhythms so that they sleep longer at night and less

during the day so it's highly recommended from pediatricians to not

let your baby sleep more than two to two and a half hours during the day so that

it sets their circadian rhythm to the night tip number nine if your baby is a

light sleeper you may want to try white noise from like a fan or a track that

you have on your phone from an app this will help mask the sounds that go on

around your baby limit the amount of times that they wake up and tip number

ten mom's you need to keep assessing yourselves because sleep deprivation

could possibly lead to baby blues or postpartum depression

so get an accountability partner someone that can ask you those tough questions

especially when you're not getting sleep it's very important that you find

opportunities to get those sleep even just for your own health so question for

you what are some tips or tricks that you have in order to get more sleep with

your newborn put your answers in the comments below thank you for watching

Diaper Bag Review - Koala Baby - Duration: 3:38.

in this video I review the Koala baby multitasker 5-piece diaper bag set a

great option with lots of features that I will break down for you stay tuned

hi I'm Amanda and welcome to parent pacifier on this channel we share

parenting tips stories and product reviews just like this one if you're new

here consider subscribing and hitting that Bell icon so you never miss a video

this is the Koala baby 5 piece multi tasker diaper bag set I really like this

bag it's beautiful it's actually very easy to clean and super spacious and has

a lot of pockets I also like how long the straps are they're super long but

not too bad where you feel like you're carrying a luggage with you

it has also a nice little second bag in here as well I really like that as well

and I'm gonna dive into that in a second but on the outside its really awesome

how it has a lot of different pockets in it you can easily reach behind you in

the car or even reach behind you while you're carrying it and just dip in your

hand real quick grab something easy it also has different pockets on the

side as well it's not just two big ones here it has

two on the side so inside it has a separate diaper bag it's nice and cute

nice and small but also has a lot of different pockets as well the changing

pad that's included is not too big so it's pretty good for if you have a

little small baby but as your baby grows you may need to get a little bit of a

bigger one it also comes with a bottle holder as well I kind of wish this was a

thermal because it can keep your bottles nice and warm or if they're even cold so

that is one thing I'm kind of disappointed with this has a lot of

pockets in front like I said and also has them on the side just like the big

bag itself so it can fit your diapers it can fit your wipes in here it could fit

your ointment cream in here it could fit a lot of different things in here

including these too if you prefer them inside and it has a zipper what I like

to do is leave this in the car with all the extra diapers and wipes and clothes

I may need and just take the I'm the go with me also has a nice

length strap so you can put it over your shoulder and it's easy to carry like a

little pocket book inside the big bag is attached an accessory bag I really like

this because people use it for their keys and everything but if your babies

like mine they pee through their things they

poop through their things and I need to rinse things right away before they

leave a lot of stains so I put the wet clothing in this little bag and it keeps

everything else dry inside so that's fun and it's attached to it so you never

lose it I really like this bag and recommend it if you're looking for a

spacious over-the-shoulder diaper bag that's easy for reach and organized if

you're looking to buy the Koala baby multitasker or add it to your registry

we provided the link in the description below question for you what is your

favorite over-the-shoulder diaper bag and why write it in the comments below
