Fox, Katie & Nadine in 2015: Week 12

 Day 78
Dinner at Oreganos with my sweet family! It's been so easy lately to take Fox with us, he just sits in his high chair and eats his food. Big Boy! 

Day 79
 
Toes for Dessert anyone? 

Day 80
 
Love him to pieces!

Excuse my squeaky voice, but I was so proud of my little guy, putting the balls back in the toy each and every time! He's learning so much these days, it's truly mind blowing!

Day 81
 
Katie and I spent Fox's naptime building this Activity board for him. I take no credit for installing all of the items, all I did was paint the stripes and decorate it when it was all said and done. I'm so glad Katie is so handy with a drill and installed all of these things in no time!

Day 82
 
Gone are the days where I could leisurely stroll through Target with a content baby for an hour. Now he wants to stand in the cart, help me push it and take all of the shoe boxes off the shelves. Sigh!

Day 83
 
Showing off his new party trick: standing by himself! Where is my baby?

Day 84
 Oh boy, we'll be in trouble with this one! Already fighting over toys with his buddy Matthew (they were born 5 days apart)! I'm sure there will be a lot of these kind of scenes in my future!

  1. Hi Nadine, ich liebe deine Posts und verfolge deine kleine Familie sehr gerne. Zieht ihr Fox zweisprachig auf oder wie handhabt ihr das?
    Alles Liebe aus Bayern,

    1. Ich versuche nur deutsch mit ihm zu sprechen, allerdings ist das manchmal gar nicht so einfach und ich arbeite nun ja auch wieder Vollzeit, von daher verbringe ich leider nicht soviel Zeit mit ihm wie ich gerne wuerde! Ich hoffe, dass er es spaeter zumindest versteht und hoffentlich auch spricht!

    2. Das finde ich cool! Ich habe Verwandtschaft in den USA und die haben ihre Kinder auch zweisprachig aufgezogen und selbst jetzt wo die beiden erwachsen sind können wie immer noch sprechen und verstehen und auch einigermaßen schreiben. Das ist echt etwas, das einem immer weiterhilft im Leben.

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...
