A Day in the Life...

I always enjoy reading other people's "A day in the Life" posts, so I thought I would do one myself. It'll be fun for me to look back at this a few years from now and seeing how life was like with a two year old!

So here we go with a bunch of random pictures from February 22nd, 2017!
My day started at 4:50am, so I snapped a quick screenshot.

I always start work at 5am, so I headed into the living room, let our dog out, put on the TV and got cozy under the blankets on the couch. 

I worked for 1.5hrs before I wrapped up and went to take a shower and got ready for the day

This guy got up around 7am that morning and we had breakfast. His wake up times are very hit and miss these days, it could be as early as 6:30am or as late as 9am, although we would usually wake him up before that if it's a school day!

On this morning, I had an early doctor's appointment, so Katie took Fox to school and I left at 7:30am for my appointment. Holy traffic! I'm so grateful our office is only 7 minutes from our home and we don't have to take the freeway, because I don't think I could deal with this rush hour each and every day. 

Nothing better than getting a blood draw first thing in the morning!

After my appointment, I headed to the office and these smiling faces!
Fox has had a hard time with drop off at school lately, so what motivates him is when we all record a video cheering him on every morning that he gets to see after school. 
I promised not to share the actual video, but they are hilarious each day and Fox loves them. 

I worked for a few hours and yes, this is my messy work space!

Katie picked up Fox from school during her lunch break, so I could work a little longer. He was so happy to come to the office and "work" with Aunt Ashlie for a few minutes.

We went to the library afterwards to pick out a few new books and play.



And then it was time to grocery shop with my little helper!

He was so funny. When we passed the cereal aisle, he remembered that we had to get Mommy's favorite cereal...although in reality I think he was picking this out for himself!

We unloaded the groceries at home, I did some dishes and we played with this giant shark balloon until Mommy came home from work.


He loves baby dolls lately. He always refers to this baby as "Baby Simon" which is the name of his friend's baby brother.

Mommy coming home from work is always a highlight for everyone! 

We played for a little bit before it was time for dinner, jammies and books. We always read books in my bed and it's one of my favorites each day. Right now, he's all about Curious George!

After Fox went to bed, it was time to go back to work for me, catching up on Etsy Orders while watching a Show with Katie!

And then it was already time to wrap up the day and go to bed! It was a late night for me!

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!

August iPhone dump

Some moments from my August... Coffee treats during busy shifts! Fox had a pool playdate with some friends. First day of middle school! Unfortunately I had to work and couldn't send him off that day, but my favorite co-parent came through with some pictures from the bus stop. Found a bunch of these selfies on my phone haha. On the way to school one morning, middle school is rough apparently. A quick brunch with friends to celebrate the end of summer break! My sweet friend Nikki gave me this bucket full of beautiful dresses that she had outgrown. A lot of them still had tags on them! Dinner date with the boys, they preferred playing a game together instead of talking to me...haha! Homework struggles have begun again! Sweet treats after school while we wait for Finn to get off the bus. Unfortunately their buses arrive an hour apart from each other, so we have a lot of waiting around because the bus stop is too far from my house.  He was helping me make schnitzel! We watched Bad guys ...
