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

Friday Favorites [9-6-2024]

I'm always happy to see Friday, but especially when the weather calls for... this gloriousness this weekend, I.Can't.Wait.! I'm linking up with Andrea and Erika to share some favorites from our busy, short week! These brothers get so excited to see each other everyday after school, it melts me! They were together at childcare last year, so it makes me think that they have to be missing each other this year. Brother time is always a favorite of mine. 😊 The chicken street taco kit from Costco is a favorite as well! This time of year it's important to get dinner on the table quickly and I love that this kit involves minimal clean-up. This little boy is determined to start walking. He's getting braver and braver by the day! There's a new flag football player in town. 😉 Sammy started flag football this week and I can't wait to watch him in action this fall! This is his "tough face." Haha. Sammy's lunches have been a favorite for sure....

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...

HOORAY for Friday. 😊 I couldn't be more excited for the weekend ahead! I'm linking up with Andrea and Erika to share some of my favorite "happies" from the week. We had THE BEST weekend last weekend! Saturday morning we were up and out the door early for a trip to Trader Joe's where we filled out cart with all the pumpkin-goodness we could find. We were home by 11 and decided it was time to put some more fall decor outside... ...to the delight of the boys. 😉 We have an inflatable dachshund (of course we do) that says "Happy Fall-oween!" It's a favorite of the boys for sure. A trip to Trader Joe's means that my family is having yummy (easy!) dinners during the week. I made a ridiculously easy Potsticker Stir Fry for an easy dinner this week while Dustin worked late. We also made some yummy flat breads using their Carne Asada, chimichurri sauce and arugula. This one was our FAVORITE! Jack's favorite thing to do these day...
