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...

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. 

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...
