Friday Favorites 2-2-2024



It's Friday again! Our weather in Iowa has been much nicer to us this week, and I'm so glad to be welcoming the weekend. I'm linking up with Erika and Andrea to share some favorites from the week!

The first favorite...

is this glorious weather. I am so thankful that we don't have snow or frigid temperatures in the near future! While I'm certain we haven't seen the last of the winter weather, I am enjoying this nice repreve.

I was able to crack my classroom windows, and while my kids were at specials I could hear the birds chirping! Such a little thing, but believe me, it brought lots of joy. 

We celebrated Jack's 8 month birthday on the 1st, and look at this sweet picture! I really enjoy this stage in development. He is so curious, and his personality is really starting to come out.  SO much fun! 

Look at this sweet memory! This photo was taken the first few days we got our puppy Roo two years ago. She was so tiny! 


Here she is now, catching some snuggles with her little brother. 😉 When we first got her, Sammy was 3. Our vet told us to let Sammy touch her, carry her, and play with her as much as possible. As a result, Roo was raised like she was a 3 year old boy, and she couldn't be more gentle and playful. Haha! 


I snapped this photo last Friday, and it's one of my favorites. I love it when I can find the boys matching shirts, and it's only a bonus when they're seasonal! 

Sammy's FAVORITE thing was basketball camp this week! He was so excited to show me his new shirt when he got home from practice. 


Anyone else love a Subway sandwich? There is one very near my school, so it's a quick lunch option on days I don't have one. Also I love salt and vinegar chips. They are a guilty pleasure for sure. 

That's all for this week! This weekend we don't have much planned and I am here for it. See you back here on Monday! XX

Jackson Nicholas is TWO!

Jackson Nicholas is officially TWO years old today!  He's been so fun lately, and definitely showing off his two-ness. 😉 He's got a LOT to say.  He loves his big brother and wants to do anything and everything that he does.  He loves his family and talks about them all day long. He loves Mickey Mouse and can't wait for his next trip to the castle.  He loves to play outside! We'll be living in the backyard this summer.  He loves to EAT! This has been his biggest area of growth from this time last year. At his first birthday party, he was just able to eat single-ingredient foods due to his allergies - we just didn't know what was safe for him. Yesterday he was able to have a cupcake..with frosting!  Such a win!  We love him and his silly little personality. We can't wait to celebrate him today!

Sammy is SEVEN!

  Sammy is SEVEN! Seven years ago we were at the hospital, excited and nervous to meet our Samuel John.  Sammy was always a happy baby and toddler, and that's continued into childhood. He is so affable, friendly, and confident! He loves his family, he loves to play and he loves to be active. Games are his favorite, and he loves to "snuggle."  Since returning back to school, he's developed a huge love of reading! As a first grade teacher this WARMS my heart. He loves most books, but right now he favors graphic novels. He is the best big brother. Without us asking, he is so willing to help his brother. Just yesterday, Jack sneezed and Sammy ran to get him a wipe and then proceeded to wipe Jack's nose for him. If someone gets hurt he often hurries to see what's wrong and if he can help. He's a lot like Dustin in that he loves to have fun and be social. He's a lot like me in that he loves to make lists and know the when/how things are happening. He loves a...

Friday Favorites [10-4-2024]

Happy, HAPPY Friday!  I hate to even say it outloud, but Jack slept through the night two nights in a row this week. He's been getting so many teeth - all at the same time for about three weeks. This led to lots of broken nights of sleep for our boy. It is AMAZING how much better I feel getting a full night of sleep. Haha.  Needless to say, I'm feeling extra perky this Friday.  I'm linking up with Andrea  and  Erika  to share a few favorites from my week. 😊 Sammy's flag football team is the Chiefs, and so obviously his favorite dog supporter needed to get a matching outfit. Look at Sammy's red cheeks! We're ready for fall weather to arrive in full force over here. Haha.  This week was National Night Out in our town, and Dustin helped work it. I stopped by with the boys, and Jack was genuinely surprised to see so many people who looked like his daddy. He got so excited when he saw the first police car, but was disappointed his daddy wasn't inside. 😉 D...
