December Re-Cap

December seems so far away, but then again, we still have our Christmas Tree up, because nobody had the energy to pack it up (well, at least the ornaments are already packed up). 
I did a lot of posts of our Holiday Activities during the month of December, but here are some random pictures I snapped on my phone that haven't made the blog.
Katie got a foot massager, but somebody snagged it right up and has been enjoying it ever since. This is the life!

Fox did a lot of decorating and re-decorating on our two trees this year. He was really into it and very proud of his work. And I think we only broke one ornament.

Fox's preschool had their annual carnival one Sunday in December. It was such a hot day and we were all sweating. He had a blast in the bounce houses and on the slides though and still talks about the prizes he won.

One day after school, we picked up Fox's best friend from school as well and took him home for a playdate. The boys had no idea this was going to happen and they were both so excited. I was smiling from ear to ear the entire ride home because they were so happy and giggling and crazy. 

Smoothie Date with Mommy. He looks so grown up, doesn't he?

See what I mean? More decorating. Grandma Rene' gave Fox a huge box with decorations and he spent like an hour decorating the tree in his bedroom. 

After school shenanigans 

He built a menorah at school and was so proud to light it during Chanukah. 

Making some vegan cookies for this little dude. He was into it for about 5.8 seconds.

Love this picture of him. The last peaceful moments before I had to wake him up for school. Mornings are rough around here, because he is tired and doesn't like to get dressed and eat breakfast right away. I feel ya, buddy, I feel ya.

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...
