Friday Favorites [2-23-24]

 

Hello Friday, it's nice to see you. 😊 As usual, I'm linking up with Erika and Andrea to share some favorites from my week. Let's go! 


Are you even from the Midwest if you don't mention this GLORIOUS weather we've had this week? It has been so nice out! It's been lovely to have the windows open for fresh air, and to go on walks and not be entirely freezing. 

Jack hit a milestone this week: riding in the stroller without the infant seat attachment. He couldn't have been happier! His legs kicked the entire walk. 😊


Oreos for an after school snack are ALWAYS a favorite in my book. 

Easy Trader Joe's meals were saving my life this week. This week hasn't been busy, but Dustin was late coming home several evenings. It was so nice to just have quick meals that I could prepare in a few steps, and with a baby on my hip. We tried the teriyaki chicken from the freezer section this week and it was a new favorite. 


These pictures from childcare have been a favorite as well. I love getting updates through the day! 


And I love this new picture of Jackson. He is an army-crawling machine, and doesn't like to stay in one place for too long. 


& one last funny to end for the week. I saw this on Instagram, and spit out my water. Haha! Can you believe next week is the end of February?! 

Have a great weekend, I'll be back on Monday!

    Send some of that warm weather this way please, it's still feeling like winter here.
    I haven't had Oreos in so long! I always used to eat them as a snack. I must get some.
    hahaha! That is so true, February has flown over so far!
    Have a fab weekend.

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...

What's Up Wednesday [September 2024]

And just like that...it's the last week of the month! Time for What's Up Wednesday with  Sheaffer  and  Shay .  What We're Eating this Week... Fall weather is officially upon us, so I'm craving warm, comforting meals. This week's menu is... Sunday - Meatloaf and green beans Monday - Chicken Pot Pie with a green salad Tuesday - "Smash Burger" tacos  Wednesday - BBQ Chicken bowls Thursday - Spaghetti  Friday - we're grilling up the Trader Joe's Unexpected Cheddar Chicken sausages...so good!  My boys have been eating a lot of pumpkin muffins this week. I had to make a second batch this evening because Sammy ate 5 (5!) in one day.  We're basically eating pumpkin in whatever we can these days, which is why I made these pumpkin sourdough discard bagels. A warm bagel + pumpkin cream cheese from Trader Joe's = a little slice of heaven. 😊 What I'm reminiscing about... As always...this time last year. Look how small and squishy Baby Jack was!  T...
