August iPhone dump

A look back to our August!

The boys had their first karate testing and Finn earned two stripes, and Fox earned four. They both did a great job, and their sensei told them how proud she was of them since they've only been training for two months, and Finn was the youngest in the class. 

We had a playdate at a new mini golf place with some friends, and it was really fun, I'm hoping to go back soon. It was a little bit like Top Golf, everything was automated.



My friend Tilly celebrated her birthday with a pool party, and rented a Barbie themed house for the weekend, which was really cute.

Zoning out...

I bought tickets to this comedy show a long time ago, and went by myself. I've never gone to an event like this by myself, which kind of felt weird, but also empowering on some level.

Not sure what is going on here...

After the kids went back to school, Friday brunches with friends went back onto the calendar.

This is at Katie's house, Fox has a whole computer set up there, where he now makes his own youtube videos. 

He also requested a new room at my house, which is fair, since his old bed was a rocket ship, and he is kind of getting too old for it. So I took him on a little shopping spree to pick out some decorations for his new room...can you guess the theme?

I had to document Finn doing his very first homework.

A beautiful sunset in the backyard.

Look at that big kid! Our first day on the school bus was a little rough, because I put two kids on the bus in the morning, and only received one back. Fox was lost for a solid hour, and no one knew where he was. It turned out that he went on the wrong bus, and I was freaking out the entire time he was gone, and even involved the police. Needless to say, both boys now have apple tags on their backpack so I can see where they are at during the school day. 

He got a little cold during dinner, so I had to share my sweater.
And that wraps up August!

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...

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 ...
