August iPhone dump

A look back to our August!

The boys had their first karate testing and Finn earned two stripes, and Fox earned four. They both did a great job, and their sensei told them how proud she was of them since they've only been training for two months, and Finn was the youngest in the class. 

We had a playdate at a new mini golf place with some friends, and it was really fun, I'm hoping to go back soon. It was a little bit like Top Golf, everything was automated.



My friend Tilly celebrated her birthday with a pool party, and rented a Barbie themed house for the weekend, which was really cute.

Zoning out...

I bought tickets to this comedy show a long time ago, and went by myself. I've never gone to an event like this by myself, which kind of felt weird, but also empowering on some level.

Not sure what is going on here...

After the kids went back to school, Friday brunches with friends went back onto the calendar.

This is at Katie's house, Fox has a whole computer set up there, where he now makes his own youtube videos. 

He also requested a new room at my house, which is fair, since his old bed was a rocket ship, and he is kind of getting too old for it. So I took him on a little shopping spree to pick out some decorations for his new room...can you guess the theme?

I had to document Finn doing his very first homework.

A beautiful sunset in the backyard.

Look at that big kid! Our first day on the school bus was a little rough, because I put two kids on the bus in the morning, and only received one back. Fox was lost for a solid hour, and no one knew where he was. It turned out that he went on the wrong bus, and I was freaking out the entire time he was gone, and even involved the police. Needless to say, both boys now have apple tags on their backpack so I can see where they are at during the school day. 

He got a little cold during dinner, so I had to share my sweater.
And that wraps up August!

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...

Graduation Party

My mother in law Rene' and my friend Allison threw me a graduation brunch the day after I got pinned as a nurse. I love this picture of Patrick. My other (ex) mother in law made this incredible cake for me, she is so talented. My sweet friend Mason. We spent our first year in nursing school together, until he decided to go a different route. We still meet up for brunches and he is also my hairdresser, but I still miss seeing him as much as I used to. It meant a lot to me that he came.  I can't even express how loved I felt on this day. I am one lucky girl to be surrounded by so many amazing friends who have been through it all with me. Ten years of friendship this year! Katie and Christina brought the boys and also attended my party, which I really appreciated. Classmates! I was joking that the next time I will receive this many flowers, it'll be my funeral. I also received so many thoughtful and sweet cards and gifts, I was truly spoiled. It was the perfect ending to an em...
