Friday Favorites [4-19-2024]


Friday, it was so nice to see you this morning. This week had a lot of "stuff" and it left me beyond ready for the weekend. I'm off today for my yearly dermatology appointment (make those appointments, ladies - they're important!) and tomorrow we head to Illinois for a bridal shower. I'm linking up with Andrea and Erika to share some favorites from the week. Here we go!

Did any other families LOVE watching the new Bluey episode this weekend? It aired on Disney + on Sunday, and we were giddy at my house. We've watched it several more times this week and laugh and find new things we hadn't noticed each time. The story telling in Bluey is always a favorite of mine. 😉



Pictures of the boys during the day are also a favorite of mine. I can't wait to spend my days with them in the summer! 

We celebrated Dustin's birthday on Sunday. He was off, the weather was perfect, and it was so fun to have everyone over for a meal to celebrate. I love this picture of my boys. 😊

This salad that I prepped over the weekend was a big favorite as well. We're reaching the point of the year where motivation is starting to reach an all-time low, so having having healthy lunches ready to go in the fridge was a big help this week. 


Going to Monster Jam was Sammy's favorite this week. He was living his very best little boy life! 

And one last favorite...last night Sammy had the Kindergarten Social. He got to go to school, visit the classrooms and see what things were going to be like next year. He was pretty nervous about this event all week, but I think that overall it was a success. Now, someone come hold me so I can go cry about my baby going to Kindergarten. 😉

That's all for this week, I'll be back on Monday! XX

  1. My girls are older so I have missed out on watching Bluey but it is such a big thing. I have seen clips and it does look a sweet show.
    Happy birthday to Dustin! It sounds like a lovely celebration.
    I am sure Sammy will love Kindergarten. They do grow up so quickly though.

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...
