Mortimer Farms

Alright, this is seriously the last pumpkin patch of the season...ha! 
Kristy and I made plans to go up north to visit a pumpkin patch we had never been to, but when the kids got sick, we rescheduled and ended up going the last weekend of October. 
It was supposed to take us an hour and 15 minutes to get there, but with traffic and pee stops for the boys, it took us two hours. Luckily the boys were such great passengers.

I seriously love this picture below!

The farm had a lot of fun activities, but once again, it was hot as hell. We thought it was going to be much cooler, since we were going up north, we even brought sweaters and pants "just in case", but it felt just as hot as Phoenix. 




Making corn angels

The boys spent like 30 minutes on this tractor and the only reason they came down was because we told them to...they would've stayed up there all day long.



Petting some chickens










He had so much fun on this jump pad...



The boys wanted to play hide and seek in the corn maze, which totally freaked me out, because we always get lost in these things. Luckily we all made it out together!





While we weren't impressed by the farm itself, we had a fun day. The pumpkin patch looked so brown and dead, I didn't even take a single picture of it and there is a pumpkin patch a little closer to our house that is much more fun than this one was. It came highly recommended from a few friends, but we decided we would go to the other one closer to home next year instead. 
But the boys had a blast and so did we, so that's all that counts!

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...

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...
