September iPhone dump

A few moments from our September!




The last swim play date at the water park with some friends!



Brunch with my old classmates!

Karate crew!

Every other week, I can go visit the kids during their lunch break at school, and I will show up as long as they let me!

Fox and his best friend from class.



We decorated for Halloween, and this kid was all about it.

This was his idea of decorating, and he was not happy when he came home the following day and I had moved his spider into a different spot.

He calls this his "Rockstar Pose"

We changed Fox's room a little bit, and I was very sad to say goodbye to his space room and rocket bed, but it was time, and he loves his new room.

A quick scooter ride to the little library in our neighborhood to exchange books.

He cracks me up every day. The other day I picked him up from school and asked how it was, and he replied "It was decent!" 


I'm getting up really early these days for clinical days and school, but on this morning the sunrise made it absolutely worth it.

We picked up Miranda for Karate, and Fox is very smitten with her.

This is what happens when you have a brother...apparently they had a little (fake) axe throwing competition at Katie's house.


Another school lunch with my bestie.



I think Fox only agrees for me to come because I bring him Chick fil a...but I'll take it. 

A quick trip to Flagstaff for my favorite ropes course.

I bought some booger candy for Finn because he loves to eat his boogers, but he was not impressed.

We had Fox's friend over for a playdate and the boys swam in the pool for the last time before it got too chilly.


A quick trip to San Diego for a long weekend. My professor told us the day before that we need to make school our number one priority. She said she knows we want to see the beach, but vacations have to wait until we graduate in May. These were my weekend views. Zero regrets!




It was a great, and busy 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...
