Fox, Katie & Nadine in 2015: Week 23

 Day 155
This boy loves his dogs. Everything is "dog" these days and he gets really excited whenever he sees one! Even if they're not real!

Day 156
 
Fox's great grandparents gave him a dwarf citrus tree for his birthday. They planted it together and showed him how to water it. Ever since, he is obsessed with his watering cans, carrying them all over the yard. I love the sweet smile he gave me at the end and him shaking his head, like he's going to do something he shouldn't be doing!

Day 157
 
Our local Aquarium had annual passes for sale last month and for $22.50, we couldn't resist. We went for the first time last weekend and it was just perfect for Fox. It's not super big, but also not crowded, dark and cool and Fox was able to run around and look at everything at his own pace. We loved it and see lots of visits there this summer!

Day 158
 
The grandparents came for a short visit! 

Day 159
 
It was Katie's grandma's birthday and we all went to dinner at the Hyatt. Fox wasn't to happy to sit in his high chair for two hours, so I took him outside and we played on their beautiful yard. He had so much fun climbing all of the stairs and trying to climb in their fountains! 

Day 160
 
My mom gave him this shirt a long time ago, it's actually underwear and came with some big boy undies, but we loved it as tank as well and who needs an undershirt when it's 110 degrees out? 

Day 161
 Another visit at the aquarium. He loved this little cave and is pointing at the fish in the aquarium above him!

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...
