First day of school 2022

It had been a long summer, and this Mama was ready for school to be back in session!

Fox started third grade this year...that is just wild to me!

And then there's this little guy. For the last four years I was able to live my dream as a stay at home mom and spend almost every day with him. Neither of us was ready for this big transition, but I prayed he would love school and make friends!

This was during his orientation.

It turned out my prayers were answered, because he LOVES school. He can't wait to go every morning and his teacher told me that he has really come out of his shell since he started in August.

And for memories sake, here's a look back at Fox's first day of school pictures, from 2016 to now.

Fox had a great start as well, and he has been enjoying third grade so much better than second (he talks about second grade often and how awful it was).

I hope they will both have a great school year...well, all three of us!

July iPhone dump

The rest of our July in pictures! Movie date with the boys! I took Finn and his best friend to the Aquarium one day, while Fox was at the allergist with Katie. They both had a blast. Trying to touch the sting rays... Sweet brotherly moment at a play place. One of my patients made this for me, and it made my day. It's now hanging from the mirror in my car, as a reminder how fragile life is. This kid kills me with his watermelons. He always wants to buy them, so he can help me cut them, but then won't eat them. When I pointed this out to him, he simply replied that I could take the watermelon to my co-workers again because they love it when I do. Fox told me he is allergic to Goodwill and puts on this big act whenever I make them go. His throat starts to be itchy and he can't breathe. We might have to get him tested again...hahaha. We visited a lot of play places this summer to stay out of the heat. This was at a library and the kids played with this lite-brite forever. Finn...

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...
