February phone dump

A few more pictures from February!

I found them cuddling on the couch together, but it didn't last long.

We went rollerblading around the lake one evening, I hadn't been on rollerblades for many years, but it was a lot of fun!

Beautiful sunrise on my way to work.

Practicing his cup stacking.

Another sunrise from the parking garage at work.

Fresh haircuts for the boys!

A few more pictures I received from my friend's Tilly's wedding at my house.

My favorite people!

Fox learned how to grill steak by himself and it's been a game changer. Growing up so fast!

Cuddles with my wild child.

Reading before school!

I visited Finn for his Valentine's day party at school.

Helping a sixth grader with math homework has not been my favorite haha.

Reading outside with a sixth grader however, will always be my favorite!

I asked Finn to take a picture of Fox and I reading together, and this is what I got.

This little President's day project that Finn brought home from school made me laugh so much. We don't talk about politics at my house, but I'm sure he hears a lot at his other house haha.

Finn was showing Fox a comic he drew. Fox is always so sweet and patient with him.

We saw a couple of movies in the theater, one of Fox's favorite things to do, although I always think he just wants to go for the food.

I received this little nightlight as a gift and I absolutely love it.

Pool season has begun! Finn has a few friends over to play and I loved hearing all their giggles.

And that wraps up February!

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...

Germany

I took a quick trip to Germany over spring break while the boys were on vacation with Katie. My dad had some medical issues over the past year, and it had been almost two years since I went, but a trip that was supposed to be five days in Germany, ended up being only four days because of flight delays. When in Germany for the first time, you HAVE to try Mettbroetchen. Needless to say, she was not a fan haha. A trip down memory lane is always on the agenda for the first day, walking around my village, visiting the homes where I grew up in (which are luckily still owned by my family), visiting my grandparent's graves, and eating all my favorite foods. My only living grandparent, and one of the main reasons I wanted to go visit. It was so special to spend time with her. We had doener almost every day! Family dinner at my favorite restaurant one night, I absolutely loved how many people were able to join us even though it was very short notice. We also had breakfast at my grandma'...

August phone dump

It's September, and I couldn't be more excited for what's to come...Fall, Halloween, Christmas...it's my favorite time of year. But let's look back at our August! I've had them fill out the same back to school form since they started school many years ago. When all the kids go back to school, us moms celebrate with a back to school brunch and it was everything my heart needed and more! So many good conversations, so many laughs, and getting to hold baby Nora was the icing on the cake! Playdate with some friends! Fox read with me in the car while we were waiting for Finn's bus...it made me so happy! He asked me to make him an "ultimate chill space" while he was at school, and this is what I came up with. He approved, and even tried to have a sleepover with me there, but we only made it for about an hour, before we went to bed. I took the kids, and one of Fox's friend to the water park one afternoon and it was perfect. Finn braved the high dive f...
