Pumpkin Patch Fun

Pumpkin Patches always hold a very special meaning to me. For years, when I wanted to have a baby, and then when we tried to have a baby, I imagined our little family at a pumpkin patch. It's just one of those things that you don't really get to do when you don't have kids (I guess some people do, but I just didn't see the sense in it for me). 

Last year, we went to three pumpkin patches, but Fox was still so little that he couldn't do anything, but this year was a whole another story. He had a blast!

This is his new face, whenever he says "woow" (which he does a lot!)


Matthias' family is visiting from Denmark and joined us!

Katie's parents joined us as well! 

Going up the big kid slide with Matthias, if we would've let him, he would've gone up and down 153 times! 


Grandpa Steve was very happy to lug all of our stuff around...haha




Fox is all about jumping these days, look at his determined little face! 




Stuck in the Corn Maze




You might remember Frida, Matthias' little sister. She's Fox's first love. He was so upset when she left in June and we didn't think he would remember her, but oh my, were we wrong! He follows her around everywhere she goes, he checks her room constantly, whenever she is not home (to see if she is back) and he gets so giddy and excited whenever she's around! We are already sad that she's leaving in a few days. 


My love!










Picking out the perfect pumpkin!



We had such a fun day and my heart was just exploding the entire time! I love this kid and getting to experience all of these things with him for the first time!

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'...

May iPhone dump

Some pictures to round up on our May! I got this sweet birthday card from my supervisors and director and it made my day. Playdates with friends! I took the boys to the Home Show to visit Katie. Aunt Bri photo bombed their picture! Dentist vibes! We had a fun dinner and swim date with my friend Lindsay and her kids. These two jumped in the pool fully dressed! I loved seeing how well they got along. Finn's Mother's Day Project from school, always funny! They had a cute Mother's Day celebration at school where they served us moms with muffins and coffee, and presented a little poem. My friend Jessica posted this about our random Goodwill date, and I loved her words. For my birthday, I wanted to have a little brunch with my friends, and it was such a perfect morning with my favorite people. Add a baby in the mix, and I was in heaven! Proud mom moment, and this needs a permanent spot for my memories. Fox has worked so incredibly hard this year, I was so worried about him transi...
