Ashlie & Brad's Wedding

Last weekend we celebrated Ashlie & Brad's wedding. For those of you who don't know, Ashlie is Katie's younger sister who used to live with us for a few years. She has been dreaming and anticipating this day ever since I can remember and I think it was everything she hoped and dreamed for.

Fox was the ring bearer and Katie was her maid of honor, so everyone had a busy day!

I only took a few pictures on my cell phone, because I was busy chasing after a certain three year old.

Fox was supposed to run down the aisle with a giant balloon that said "Here comes the bride". We talked about it, we practiced it and he was super stoked about it. But when the time came, he got stage freight and had a total meltdown. He ended up walking down the aisle with Grandma and Uncle Brett with the biggest pouty face you ever did see and by the time he got to the front and in to my lap, he totally lost it and cried and sobbed that he wanted to go home. Which is so not like him at all.

He cheered up a little after the ceremony, but was adament that he didn't like his "wedding costume".

My wife looked absolutely stunning! I'm so happy to have her as my forever wedding date!

Grandpa, Katie and Fox on the dance floor!

Ashlie made sure to have a special vegan cupcake for Fox and it made his night!

Father-Daughter Dance

Fox even met some of his second cousins for the first time and the boys had fun playing tag on the dance floor and reading books together.

It was a beautiful and super fun wedding, but we were all exhausted at the end of the day!

The happy couple is now on their honeymoon in Italy and we can't wait to hear all about their travels!

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...

First day of school

This year I have a first and a fifth grader! Aww, he was so tiny in the first picture in Pre-K! Last year of elementary school for this big kid, and Mama is not ready for middle school next year. The boys had a great start to their school year, still taking the bus every day, and while no one is a fan of going to school around here, they seem to like their teachers and classes so far. I'm glad to be getting back to more of a routine for them (and me), because let me just tell you...summer was rough! Haha.

January iPhone dump

A quick look at our January! Nursing Level 2 unlocked...after getting a heated vest, I now also have my personal space heater at work. No one warned me how cold hospitals are...haha! We watched our friend's dog for a few days and Mr. Finn was in heaven. He wouldn't let go of poor Nugget and always wanted him to be right with him. His eyes say "Save me!!!" Cherishing the times that he will cuddle with me. I know I don't have much time left, and that makes me really sad. Self-care...reading a book in our hammock while the kids were playing nicely together. Another downfall of them growing up, is that we now have to order adult meals at the restaurant. I might have to get another job in order to afford these two...haha. Katie sent me this picture of Finn sleeping with their dog one night. Sweet things my co-worker leaves for me when I was sick at work...she made me a to-go tissue packet because the box I kept carrying around kept falling out of my fanny pack that I...
