Another Doctor's Appointment where we got to see our boo! My favorite days! The office has a huge flatscreen on the wall across from me, which is awesome!

Ein weiterer Arzttermin, wo wir unseren kleinen Mann bewundern konnten! Ich liebe solche Tage! Die Arztpraxis hat einen riesigen Flachbildschirm an der Wand gegenueber von mir haengen, was super ist!

Getting a bunch of Etsy Orders in the mail.

Ein paar meiner Etsy Bestellungen haben es zum Briefkasten geschafft.

Another free baby class at Babies R Us, this one was called "Baby Basics" and we liked it a lot. Tomorrow we're attending another class about Babyproofing your house!

Ein weiterer kostenloser Babykurs bei Babies R Us, dieser nannte sich "Baby Grundlagen" und wir mochten ihn sehr. Morgen gehen wir zu einem Kurs, der darum geht, sein Haus kindersicher zu machen.

Ein Spaziergang mit unseren "Jungs" am Sonntag Nachmittag.

29 weeks (and 3 days) pregnant!

29 Wochen (und 3 Tage) schwanger!


Day 56
Getting our paperwork to do taxes in order...ugh! I couldn't believe how many medical receipts we accumulated in the last year. I mean, I knew we spent a lot of money on making our little miracle, but when I saw that my bills alone came to $45,000, I almost fainted. Worth every penny and more! 

Ich habe unseren Papierkram fuer die Steuererklaerung zusammen gesucht. Ich konnte gar nicht glauben, wieviele Arztrechnungen wir im letzten Jahr angesammelt haben. Ich wusste, dass wir eine Menge Geld fuer unser kleines Wunder ausgegeben haben, aber als ich feststellte, dass meine Rechnungen alleine sich auf $45,000 beliefen, bin ich fast umgekippt. Aber er war jeden Pfennig und noch mehr wert!

  1. Wow, $45000-while I'm sure you'll say it was more than worth it, I hope most of that was covered by your insurance!

    I have just added up our clinic bills and for one IUI it came to a total of £2535/$4250(all paid out of pocket), so only a fraction of your treatment costs....

    1. Unfortunately, that was all out of pocket. Insurance didn't cover any of it. I miss the german health system! :)

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...

January iPhone dump

A quick look at our January! Nursing Level 2 unlocked...after getting a heated vest, I now also have my personal space heater at work. No one warned me how cold hospitals are...haha! We watched our friend's dog for a few days and Mr. Finn was in heaven. He wouldn't let go of poor Nugget and always wanted him to be right with him. His eyes say "Save me!!!" Cherishing the times that he will cuddle with me. I know I don't have much time left, and that makes me really sad. Self-care...reading a book in our hammock while the kids were playing nicely together. Another downfall of them growing up, is that we now have to order adult meals at the restaurant. I might have to get another job in order to afford these two...haha.  Katie sent me this picture of Finn sleeping with their dog one night.  Sweet things my co-worker leaves for me when I was sick at work...she made me a to-go tissue packet because the box I kept carrying around kept falling out of my fanny pack that I...

First day of school

This year I have a first and a fifth grader! Aww, he was so tiny in the first picture in Pre-K! Last year of elementary school for this big kid, and Mama is not ready for middle school next year. The boys had a great start to their school year, still taking the bus every day, and while no one is a fan of going to school around here, they seem to like their teachers and classes so far. I'm glad to be getting back to more of a routine for them (and me), because let me just tell you...summer was rough! Haha.
