April iPhone dump

Some of my favorite April moments!

Karate with two of my besties (and my sweet sidekick of course).

Fox showed me his finger and asked if it was normal. Ummm, no. Definitely not normal kid! :) 

We had a little staycation and the boys loved the community playroom.

This is our favorite milkshake place. We had lunch there, followed by a movie in the theater.

I made some shirts for my friends and I for our upcoming graduation. So excited!

Of course the boys needed some shirts as well. 


Fox was so happy that his cousin just plopped down on him like this. 

A sweet find in our backyard.

Fox's teacher asked us to write some letters to him for his upcoming state testing. I asked Grandma and Grandpa to write one as well, and they really went over the top with it, I thought this was so sweet. 

Almost six years old and still keeps me on my toes every day.

Bunco night at my house, so much fun!

BLS class at work, I'm still terrified about the idea that I will have to perform CPR on a real patient one day. 

I ordered myself a new watch band and I absolutely love it.

Finn was very proud to be sitting up there and wanted me to take his picture.

Sweet messages from friends that kept me going through rough days. This semester has been insane and I worked about 80 hours a week between clinicals, work, lab days, lectures, and exams. I was so exhausted.
Grandma and Grandpa watched the boys for me one day while I was at clinical.


We finally got some new couch tables, so Finn converted our old one (that Katie and I purchased in 2009) into a candy shop. 

He started basketball classes in April, and he has been doing so well. 

He was super proud of the metal he received, and even brought it to show and tell at school.


Fox bought this for me while he was with his grandparents one day. So sweet of him.

Pool season has begun!

Celebratory lunch after an exam!



We had clinical at Phoenix Children's hospital for a few weeks, and our instructor took up up onto the roof and heli pad for a picture. She also showed us the morgue, but no pictures of that!

Such a gorgeous view from the top!

My very LAST day in my school uniform!!!
And that wraps up April!

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...

We took some family pictures this fall!

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...
