Fox, Katie & Nadine in 2016: Week 2

Day 8
Picking up our new Au Pair Hannah from the airport!

Day 9
We celebrated London's second birthday! Fox doesn't get cupcakes very often, but he dove right in!

Day 10
Fox was on nap strike that day, but eventually passed out in the car on our way back from the Zoo. I enjoyed some extra snuggles before we had to wake him up. These moments are rare, so I soaked in every second of this!

Day 11
Fox's friend Grayson came over to try out Fox's new jump house. These boys had so much fun and jumped and giggled their little hearts out! 

Day 12
An Afternoon at the Aquarium with Mama, Aunt Ash and Hannah. 

Day 13
Hannah took Fox to the Zoo, while we were at work. It was chilly that morning! 

Day 14
We had Show Week, so we had to call in extra reinforcements and Grandma and Grandpa took Fox for the day. Nothing makes me happier than getting pictures of my boy having fun during the day, while I'm at work! Show Weeks are hard with long hours and no time off, but it makes it so much easier to know that Fox is taken care of!

    1. So far, so good. Fox loves her and we like her a lot. I guess I am jaded from our last experience, because our last au pair was great too until he showed his true colors after a while…I’m just feeling very cautious. So only time will tell! In the end, no one will take care of your baby like you would, right? :) He’s learning a lot of german too, which I love!

July iPhone dump

The rest of our July in pictures! Movie date with the boys! I took Finn and his best friend to the Aquarium one day, while Fox was at the allergist with Katie. They both had a blast. Trying to touch the sting rays... Sweet brotherly moment at a play place. One of my patients made this for me, and it made my day. It's now hanging from the mirror in my car, as a reminder how fragile life is. This kid kills me with his watermelons. He always wants to buy them, so he can help me cut them, but then won't eat them. When I pointed this out to him, he simply replied that I could take the watermelon to my co-workers again because they love it when I do.  Fox told me he is allergic to Goodwill and puts on this big act whenever I make them go. His throat starts to be itchy and he can't breathe. We might have to get him tested again...hahaha. We visited a lot of play places this summer to stay out of the heat. This was at a library and the kids played with this lite-brite forever. Finn...

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...

March iPhone dump

A look back at the month of March! Fox and I had a few hours to ourselves while Finn was at a birthday party, and he wanted to go shopping at Target and get some Starbucks. Sounds like my kind of date! This is where you can find him most days, playing games with his friends online, while simultaneously being on facetime with them. When did he get so big? Family game night outside! My sour patch kid. He told me he will still cuddle with me until he is 42...haha! I've been having a really hard time sharing parenting time lately. It kills me every time when I have to drop them off every other week for a stretch of five days, and I have been getting anxiety attacks. I know they are well taken care of, I know they have fun there and don't even think about me, but it still sucks. Whenever I'm not with them, I'm at work, and I guess it's just been extra hard because I never had to be away from them as much as I have since becoming a nurse.  Fox brought this home from schoo...
