Pumpkin Patch Fun

Pumpkin Patches always hold a very special meaning to me. For years, when I wanted to have a baby, and then when we tried to have a baby, I imagined our little family at a pumpkin patch. It's just one of those things that you don't really get to do when you don't have kids (I guess some people do, but I just didn't see the sense in it for me). 

Last year, we went to three pumpkin patches, but Fox was still so little that he couldn't do anything, but this year was a whole another story. He had a blast!

This is his new face, whenever he says "woow" (which he does a lot!)


Matthias' family is visiting from Denmark and joined us!

Katie's parents joined us as well! 

Going up the big kid slide with Matthias, if we would've let him, he would've gone up and down 153 times! 


Grandpa Steve was very happy to lug all of our stuff around...haha




Fox is all about jumping these days, look at his determined little face!

You might remember Frida, Matthias' little sister. She's Fox's first love. He was so upset when she left in June and we didn't think he would remember her, but oh my, were we wrong! He follows her around everywhere she goes, he checks her room constantly, whenever she is not home (to see if she is back) and he gets so giddy and excited whenever she's around! We are already sad that she's leaving in a few days. 


My love!










Picking out the perfect pumpkin!



We had such a fun day and my heart was just exploding the entire time! I love this kid and getting to experience all of these things with him for the first time!

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...
