My Once Upon a Time...

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...

February came and went in a flash! Finn and I spent a lot of time outside in the yard, enjoying the beautiful weather. On this day, he helped me spray paint his Valentine's box, which then led to spray painting flower pots, rocks, and leaves. He worked on this picture for a very long time, and I loved it so much, I asked if I could frame it. He told me no, that he already promised it to his friend at school...haha. I remember when Fox was his age, he loved going up on the flat part of the roof, and this guy was the same way. We had some balls up there, that he got down for us, and he thought he was so cool. Katie and I split the kids up one night, because they both asked for more "one on one time", and Finn and I had a late night ice cream date.  He's been really into drawing and reading before bedtime. We saw the new Dogman movie in the theater and they both loved it. Fox had a dodgeball tournament at school that I was able to attend. This is one of his best friends ...
