Friday Favorites [3-29-2024]

 


It's Friday, I have a long weekend, and that makes me a happy lady. 😉 As usual. I'm linking up with Erika and Andrea and sharing my favorites from the week! 

My day on Thursday started off pretty snuggly. Jack woke up when I was wrapping up my workout, so I headed upstairs to help him. We were snuggling in the rocking chair, and Sammy woke up and joined us. 😊 Those few minutes of snuggling and rocking my boys absolutely warmed my mama heart. 

I love this picture of Jack. He was working on a piece of bread about the size of his head! He's at the point where it appears that he's eating really well, but then you lift him up out of his highchair and wonder if any food *actually* made it into his mouth. Haha. 


My Greek Inspired Pasta Salad was another favorite from the week. It made for a yummy, easy lunch to bring to work! We're reaching the point of the school year where I'm gradually losing steam with packing lunches. 😅

I shared on What's Up Wednesday that I've recently converted to the LMNT Electrolytes, instead of Sugar-Free Liquid IV. Starting my morning with a big cup of LMNT is one of my favorite things. 

Thursday was a really special day at my school. It was called "Think Different Day," and it is a mental health day for teachers and students. We take a total break from academics, and the kids rotate through stations throughout the day. They could make kites, learn how to make balloon animals, play with play dough, make a kazoo...lots of fun things. I hosted "Diary of a Worm" dirt cups, where we read "Diary of a Worm" and made a little pudding dirt cup snack. It was a nice change of pace ahead of the three day weekend! 

Dustin kept the boys home on Tuesday, and they had a snuggly day together. I loved getting pictures from Dustin throughout the day. Look at this one of Jack trying to climb Roo's dog stairs. He's thinking, "Thanks for getting me something to climb!"

Sammy started a T-Ball camp this week at the YMCA and he was so excited! He couldn't have been happier to head out the door with Dustin. I'm looking forward to watching all the T-Ball games this summer! 

My last favorite of the week is this sweet picture of my two favorite little boys. 😊 I love any and all opportunities to put them in matching clothes!

Happy Easter, everyone! I'll see you back here on Monday. XX

    The Think Different Day at school sounds wonderful!

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...

Friday Favorites [4-5-2024]

  Hello, Friday. It's always nice to see you. 😉 I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  to share some favorites from my week. Here we go!  My first favorites are these sweet Easter pictures. We had a fun weekend celebrating! I love any reason for my little boys to get dressed up and get a cute picture. 😉 Another favorite on April 1st was celebrating Jack's 10 month birthday! I can't believe in two months he will be one. I loved this picture showing off his top two teeth.  3 years ago, my family was at one of our favorite places...Disney World! We went to Florida over Easter in 2021 with my extended family and it was a fun little trip. This trip was rescheduled from March of 2020, and I love seeing all of the memories from our trip. Sammy looks SO LITTLE.  In this picture we were riding Dumbo. I remember that Sammy got off the ride and promptly asked to go again. Haha.  We made my  Easy Weeknight Tostadas  on Tuesday of this week ...

Friday Favorites [5-3-2024]

  Yay! It's Friday and it's the month of MAY! Both of those things are very good things in my book. Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  to share some favorites from the week.  On Monday I shared that we had a busy weekend! My mom and I hosted a Bridal Shower for my sweet cousin Caitlin, and then our new niece and nephew were baptized on Sunday. It was a fun (but tiring) way to spend the weekend!  Jack especially loved all of the family time, and was happy to sneak in some giggles with Great Grandma before the shower began. 😉 We whipped up these  Burrito Bowls  for dinner one night this week, and it was a new favorite. It was such an easy meal that Dustin and I both loved!  It's May, which means that it's time for me to read "Charlotte's Web" to my class. I read it every year during the month of May! This book has seen much better years - I think it's time for a new copy. Haha.  The boys and I love to play in the basement...
