Friday Favorites [3-1-2024]

 


It's Friday and I'm here sharing my favorites from the week. As usual, I'm linking up with Andrea and Erika. Here we go! 

My very first favorite is that Jack is 9 months old today! I can't believe he's been "out" for as long as I was pregnant with him. 😊 He is the happiest little baby, and we just can't imagine life without him. I shared a little monthly update on the blog today as well. 

Another favorite is that Sammy lost his second tooth over the weekend. He pulled it out himself! I told him that pretty soon he won't have any teeth left. 😉

An easy sheet meal dinner was perfect for our Wednesday night. I took some italian chicken sausage, sweet potato gnocchi, and green beans, plus a little olive oil and seasonings and roasted it up for about 20 minutes. Sammy loves chicken sausages, so a fuss-free dinner is always a win in my book. 

We put out some St. Patrick's Day books over the weekend and have been enjoying reading them. I keep a basket of seasonal books out on our main floor so we can easily enjoy them. We're all ready for some St. Patrick's Day shenanigans. 

One of Jack's favorite things this past weekend was enjoying a little shopping and lunch with his Grammy and I. I love his happy little smile behind the pacifier! 


A little [or a lot] of Starbucks on a Thursday morning always brings some joy. I am having a moment with the Hazelnut Oatmilk Shaken Espresso. It's so yummy!

After school walks in February were a highlight of the week. I was so thankful for the warm weather we got to enjoy! 

This weekend will be spent getting prepared for parent/teacher conference week next week. It will be a busy week to say the least! After next week is over it will be Spring Break and we.are.so.ready. See you back here on Monday! XX

    Aww! Jack is just adorable and what a cute gappy smile from Sammy!
    I miss having a box of seasonal books for my girls to enjoy. They're too old for that sort of thing now.

      The seasonal books are one of my favorite things! It's such an easy way to make the seasons a little more special :)

  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....

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...
