September iPhone dump

Looking back at the month of September!
I was dog sitting at my friend's house and listening to a lecture that my professor recorded. My professor has a dog who constantly barks in the background (talk about annoying), and my friend's dog loved it (although I think she was also a little confused about where the barks were coming from) and didn't leave the computer. 

The boys and I had some time to kill before a family birthday dinner, so we went to a nearby mall and they were begging me to put some money into those massage chairs. Their faces say it all! Lucky for them, Katie bought one of those chairs for their house shortly after. 

Purchased this garden stone for my mother in law for her birthday and loved how it turned out.

When I started school, I quickly realized that a lot of my classmates bought the exact same stethoscope, so I got myself a personalized stethoscope ring...I love it!

Making pumpkin bread with my little helper.

His great-grandma got him some cookies with edible markers to decorate for fall, and he loves art almost as much as he loves cookies.



Impromptu movie night in the pool with Fox's bestie and one of my besties...such a great night!

Finn got invited to his first class birthday party and it was so fun to see him interact with his classmates and have so much fun.





My friend and I took the boys to an arcade on weekend. Quickest $50 I ever spent...would not recommend!

He's obsessed with decorating Gingerbread houses, and I guess Halloween Gingerbread houses are a thing now, so of course I had to get one.



It's really just about the frosting for him I think.










More artwork!

Fox invited his school friend over for a playdate, and his sister, who is the same age as Finn, came along. I wasn't sure how Finn would react to her, but those two had the best time for hours. 

Brunch with friends with a side of pharmacology...it's all about work/life balance, right? 

Caught this sweet little moment while walking to the car from school.

I have been filling these out since Fox was two years old, and still going strong. Can't wait for my family discount at Target if Finn goes after his dream to "be someone at Target"...haha. 

Family bowling party for my sister-in-law's birthday!

I love this picture of Fox and Grandma. 

Little dude wasn't feeling too good...turned out he had walking pneumonia.

We start Halloween decorations early around here.
Until next month!

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...
