Katie & Nadine in 2014: Week 7

Day 43
I've been looking for pillows for our nursery window seat FOREVER. I was getting so frustrated because I didn't find anything I liked, or they were like $50 per pillow, which I definitely wasn't willing to spend. 
Katie surprised me and just bought these four pillows for us and I absolutely love them! One of the small ones has a Dr. Seuss quote on it and the other says: "I carry your heart, I carry it in my heart". 
She is so amazing and me and baby J are so lucky to have her!

Ich habe seit langem nach Kissen fuer unseren Fenstersitz im Kinderzimmer gesucht. Es war so frustrierend, denn ich konnte nichts finden, was ich mochte oder sie kosteten $50 pro Kissen und ich hatte absolut nicht vor, soviel Geld dafuer auszugeben. 
Katie ueberraschte mich und hat einfach diese Kissen fuer uns bestellt und ich liebe sie! Eines der kleinen Kissen hat eine Quote von Dr. Seuss und auf dem anderen steht: "I carry your heart, I carry it in my heart". 
Sie ist so toll und ich und Baby J koennen uns gluecklich schaetzen, sie zu haben!

Day 44
We packed our suitcase to fly for a long weekend to North Carolina, only to find out that our flight was cancelled because there was a huge snow storm on the East Coast. How ironic that it was 90 degrees in Phoenix! Because of work we weren't able to fly a few days later, but hopefully we'll make it to NC at some point (this was the second time we had to cancel this trip - the first time, it was because Zuma had a seizure). 

Wir packten unsere Koffer um ein langes Wochenende in North Carolina zu verbringen, und haben spaeter erfahren, dass unser Flug wegen eines Schneesturms an der Ostkueste abgesagt wurde. Was fuer ein Witz, denn wir hatten ueber 30 Grad in Phoenix! Leider konnten wir wegen unseres Jobs nicht ein paar Tage spaeter fliegen, aber hoffentlich schaffen wir es irgendwann mal nach NC zu fliegen (dies war das zweite Mal, dass wir diesen Trip absagen mussten - beim ersten Mal war es wegen Zuma's Epilepsieanfalls). 


Day 45
Robert & Katie with their Valentine's Day dates! Ha! We actually hired the "Kitchen Cousins" to come out to our May Show and we hope that they'll be just as awesome as the Property Brothers were last year. 

Robert und Katie mit ihren "Valentine's Dates". Haha! Wir haben die "Kitchen Cousins" fuer unsere Mai Show engagiert und hoffen, dass sie genauso toll sein werden, wie die "Property Brothers" letztes Jahr. 


Day 46
We spent the day with Katie's Family and visited a Peach Festival where we didn't see one single peach! Oh well, we had fun anyway! 

Wir haben den Tag mit Katie's Familie verbracht und haben ein Pfirsich Fest besucht, wo wir nicht einen einizgen Pfirsich gesehen haben! Naja, wir hatten trotzdem Spass!


Day 47
We worked around the house... assembling more furniture and making these cupcake toppers for our baby shower.

Wir haben ein paar Dinge im Haus erledigt, eine Menge Moebel zusammen geschraubt und diese Cupcake Topper fuer unser Baby Shower gebastelt. 


Day 48
After three months of living in our new house, we finally cleaned out one half of the garage, so I can park in there! Let's see if we can get the rest cleaned out by the end of the year, so Katie can park in there too! 

Nachdem wir nun drei Monate in unserem neuen Haus leben, haben wir endlich eine Haelfte der Garage aufgeraeumt, damit ich darin parken kann. Mal sehen, ob wir die andere Haelfte bis zum Ende des Jahren auch leer bekommen, damit Katie's Auto auch Platz hat!


Day 49
28 weeks (and 4 days) pregnant!

28 Wochen (und 4 Tage) schwanger!

  1. Love, love, love the pillows! "I carry your heart, I carry it in my heart" is one of my fav quotes that we incorporated it in Gracie's baby book last year. I can't wait to see the rest of the nursery! Sounds like things are really coming along. :)

August iPhone dump

A few of my favorite moments from August! Meet the teacher for the boys! I received this picture from Katie's wife, such a sweet bond they have. I'm also loving how his pajamas are inside out...haha. Walter came back to spend a few days with us! We watched him last summer, and the boys kept talking about him, so we were all so excited when his mom asked us to watch him for a few days. Notice Finn pouting. He was upset that Walter "only pays attention to Fox". So many big emotions in such a tiny body. Mr. Cool Guy at his dentist check up and teeth cleaning! I was trying to get some work done in my office, but this guy needed some attention. Finn made a bed for them, so they could sleep together. In the end, no one wanted to sleep there, but he was so happy to cuddle with Walter for a bit. My friend got me some comedy tickets to see "Nurse John", so I invited my two besties, and two of my old classmates, and we had a blast, he was so funny. We even got VIP acc...

May iPhone dump

Some of my favorite moments of May that haven't made it on the blog yet. May has been such an incredible month and I wish I could turn back time and do it all over again. Between graduating from nursing school and all the celebrations that came with that, Fox's 10th birthday, Finn's Kindergarten graduation, and all the sweet little moments in between, it was a month I will never forget.  Kindergarten Homework for this cutie, he is very smart, but hates doing it. This was my favorite view at school, right when you exited the building. This was the place where we met up with friends during breaks, and after every exam, and I wanted to take a picture to remember this special place.  Making paper airplanes has been a new favorite for him. This was two days before I took my final exam, and I probably should've been studying, but having an ice cream date with the boys sounded much more fun. He loves to make us laugh. While Finn and I were getting ready for bed, I asked him to...

December iPhone dump

December came and went in a flash! We visited Santa! I started a new job in November as a patient care technician in the Oncology unit at the hospital I'm hoping to get hired by after I graduate. I have heard from many people that this hospital usually hires nurses from within, so I wanted to get my foot in the door, and also gain some more experience before graduating. I was really nervous about handling two 12 hour days per week, on top of school and sharing custody of the kids, and while it hasn't been easy, it has been very rewarding. I love the unit I'm on, the patients, the people I work with, and it's a very humbling experience to work in Oncology.  I took a screen shot of my activity after one of my shifts, I usually average between 7.5-9.5 miles per day, just from walking all over the unit.  The boys are playing bar with their cousin at Grandma's house.  We celebrated their cousin's first birthday! S'mores in the backyard. Nikolaus (a german traditi...
