What's Up Wednesday [February 2024]

And just like that, February is over. Can you even believe it?! I'm linking up with Sheaffer and Shay to share a little bit about "what's up" in my life right now.

What we're eating this week...

Sunday - We grilled burgers
Monday - We grilled up chicken and onions, and sliced it all up for some chicken and onion sliders. 
Tuesday - I had a hair appointment, so we enjoyed leftovers from the night before. 
Wednesday - Tonight we're having ham balls and green beans
Thursday - I've got some chicken Italian sausages that I'll roast, alongside some sweet potato gnocchi
Friday - It's Lent, so we have some fish from the Freezer section at Trader Joe's that we'll cook up. 


This past weekend I made a batch of Ramen Salad, and I've been enjoying it for lunches this week. It is so yummy! 

What I'm reminiscing about...

I cannot believe that Jackson is going to be 9 months old on March 1st. It's so crazy to think that this was my belly 9 months ago...


...and here we are today. 

What I'm loving...


This sounds silly, but I am really loving this mouthwash. My breath is minty and I feel like it's helping to strengthen my enamel. That or I'm just a sucker for the cute coloring on the bottle. Haha. 


I'm also loving this lip butter balm. It's been living on my desk at school and I use it daily! 

What we've been up to...

In the month of February we had lots of fun celebrating Valentine's day, and we've been really enjoying the mild temperatures!


Sammy LOVED his Bluey Valentine's Day box. 


& Jack has been enjoying the walks. 


We've also been very busy chasing this one down as he learned how to army crawl. He's gotten so fast! 


The tooth fairy was also busy visiting our house. ๐Ÿ˜‰

What I'm excited about...


I am SO excited for Spring Break! We have nothing exciting planned, but Dustin is off with us. We have a few projects to complete around the house, as well as some spring cleaning. Hopefully the weather cooperates and we can enjoy some time outside! 

What I'm watching/reading...


This month I read "Outlive" and "The Frozen River."Currently, I'm working on "The Women".


What I'm listening to...


Bring on summer, I'm ready for it. ๐Ÿ˜‰

What I'm doing this weekend...

Parent/Teacher conference week is upon us next week, so I plan to do my best to relax in preparation. I'll do all the things on Saturday so on Sunday I can focus on spending time with the boys. I always miss them extra during the long conference days! 

What I'm looking forward to this month...



Is it silly to be excited for St. Patrick's Day? Because I'm very excited. ๐Ÿ˜Š We'll start the day with some green pancakes, and I've got some shenanigans in store for the boys. I love making the holidays special for them! 

That's all for this month, thanks for reading! 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. ๐Ÿ˜‰ 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! 

Disney World: Day 6 Recap

We're a little bit behind in posting, but today I'm sharing our day 6 recap to our Disney World trip! Today we went to...Animal Kingdom!  I love an Animal Kingdom park day following a rest day. Animal Kingdom has lots of opportunities for animal viewing, and the animals are most active during the morning. It's a great idea to start your day at Animal Kingdom early to maximize your animal viewing opportunities.  On this day we were up and on our way around 8:00. We had a lightning pass for the Nav'i River Journey beginning at 8:05. This ride is located in the Pandora section of the park and it is truly amazing. There are lots of floating mountains, water features, and fun details throughout. Although the boys had zero frame of reference about the movie, we enjoyed the ride and some breakfast before heading to... Festival of the Lion King! Truly - this show is worth the cost of your park admission alone. We loved the songs and the dances, and Sammy was thrilled with the f...

Disney World: Day 7 Recap

We woke up on January 1st ready for our last full day at Disney World!  The boys were a little slow moving this morning (who came blame them after 4 park days ๐Ÿ˜…) but we had a Lightning Lane booked at 8:05AM for Tiana's Bayou Adventure (formerly known as Splash Mountain). I sent Sammy and Dustin ahead to Magic Kingdom so Jack could have a slower start, and we met up with them in Fantasyland right around 9:30. We knew today was going to be a long park day. We were worried to leave for a rest in case the park reached capacity, and we wanted to make sure we stayed for fireworks!  We packed our morning with lots of rides and tried the new beignets. Sammy loved them! I also caught my favorite picture of the trip this morning. I was trying to take a cute picture of the boys, and Sammy's arm was around Jack's shoulders. At this exact moment... Jack took hold Sammy's finger and bit it. He didn't bite very hard, but hard enough to get this reaction from Sammy. ๐Ÿ˜‚ It is somet...
