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!

      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!

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...
