Weekend Recap

Hello, Monday! 

I took a little break from blogging at the end of last week, and then again on Monday. Both boys had colds, Jack got his first ear infection (which meant two nights of no sleep for me), and I somehow managed to come down with strep throat. Yuck! We were healthy for the weekend (yay!) but by the time Sunday came around, I realized I hadn't gotten a post ready for Monday. So, here's my Monday post on a Tuesday. 😉

We had a fun little weekend that I wanted to share some highlights from. It was Dustin's weekend off (yay!) and it happened to be his birthday weekend, so we had to squeeze in as much fun as possible. 


On Saturday, we took Sammy to Monster Jam, and he was living his best.boy.life.. He couldn't have been any happier! My parents watched Jack for us, and it was nice to have some 1:1 time with Sammy. 


At one point I looked over, and I wasn't sure who was having the most fun...Dustin or Sammy. 😂

On Sunday it was Dustin's birthday, and we did our best to celebrate him all day long. 

We had a family birthday party on Sunday night. We grilled out burgers and hot dogs, and had some yummy sides to go along with it. 

Dustin requested poke cake for his birthday, so that's what we had. 

And Sammy very kindly helped Dustin open his birthday cards. 😉 Ignore that big dead spot in the yard, that's where the baby pool lived last summer. Haha. 

It was such a fun weekend! But by the time Sunday rolled around, I was wishing for another day off. Summer will be here soon, friends!

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...
