Shopping list and menu for weeks 3 and 4 of 2014

So our children have been complaining about our breakfast oatmeal for the last couple weeks, so I figured I would change it up the next few weeks and give them a break before they really hate oatmeal. I did splurge this shopping time, not much but I am not sure if we made our $50 a week budget or by how much we over spent. So here it goes the menu as follows;
