December iPhone dump

I already posted plenty of pictures of December, but here are some other snapshots I took that month!
We usually only decorate the inside of the house, but did the outside for the first time in years.

Fox and I spent many hours in the car waiting for Finn's bus to arrive (there is an hour in between pick ups, and our house is too far away to make it worth it to drive home in between).

Both of them chose rubber duck advent calendars this year.


Finn got sick right before our cruise, but our friend Allison came by to sweeten their day with some early Christmas gifts.


The elf returned for a few days, until the boys completely lost interest in looking for him each morning...HALLELUJAH!

We spotted the giant elf on the shelf on a building in Scottsdale.

Quick doctor's visit before vacation, luckily he just had a cold.



Fox made rice krispie treats for the first time and did a great job.

I visited Finn's school for their annual "Jingle Jog", where parents and kids join to run labs around their big outdoor field.


We had been waiting for "The Housemaid" movie for almost a year, my co-workers and I read the book and met up the day it was released. I absolutely loved it and can't wait for the next one.

Annual cookie and gift exchange with my favorite people!

The boys and I took a walk to the playground one night and it was perfection.

My goal after nursing school was to get back into reading, and 2025 was all about books.

For this guy too! My favorite is when he will ask me if we can read our books on the couch together.


A few days after Christmas I realized that I forgot to give Finn one of his gifts, that I hid too well in the garage. He was very excited about it, and they both fight over who gets to sit in the chair on the daily.

We were also a little late on decorating a gingerbread house this year, but it was a fun little afternoon activity after Christmas.




We ended the year with a playdate at the train park with our friend Marcela and her kids!


Fox asked to buy treats for New Year's Eve and he chose this little cake.
And that wraps up 2025! We had an amazing, but most importantly healthy year!

April phone dump

Some more pictures of our April. He's my bed hog, but I love sharing the bed with him and the way he comes find me in his sleep to snuggle up to me. Work Crew! Easter Preparations...it took me a solid hour to fill all the eggs. Finn chipped his permanent front tooth, and had to get it fixed. He was so brave. I tried to hold his hand to let him know I was there, and he kept giving me a thumbs up. Reading in bed with them is my favorite. We went to play mini golf, and it was an absolutely shit show. Just look at Finn in the background, he was on fire on this day. That's his "cool face". Not pictured are all the times he melted down because he wasn't "good enough". I really need to stop playing this game with him, because it happens every single time...haha.  Book Club! I wasn't a fan of the book, but it was great getting out and talking about books with other readers. He got into kinetic sand for a few weeks, and I felt like my floors were covered in s...

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...
