Friday Favorites [5-10-2024]

 


It's Friday and I couldn't be anymore excited about the upcoming weekend! I'm linking up with Andrea and Erika to share some of my Friday Favorites from the week. Settle in, I've got lots of them this week! 

This week was Teacher Appreciation week, and we were spoiled by our PTA. There were an abundance of treats and drinks all week long! My favorite little gift came from one of my students. It was this cute basket filled with all of my favorite things...so thoughtful!


It was Grandparents Day at Sammy's preschool on Monday. He was such a lucky little boy to have both sets of grandparents there with him! 

I snapped this picture of my boys before we went to church on Saturday night. We love an opportunity to match, especially when Bluey is involved. 😉


On Sunday my dad filled a raised garden bed for us, and it involved moving around some dirt. Sammy couldn't have been more thrilled. He ran up to the door and made me admire his worm. Look at that smile! You can tell he was mid-laugh. Haha. 

I used my sourdough discard to make THE BEST pizza crust ever. It was so good! We topped it with sweet Italian sausage, green peppers and red onion and it was perfection. 

Tornado sirens going off at 1AM are NOT our favorite. Look at those sleepy faces! We've had a couple of weeks with severe storms (always occuring in the middle of the night!) and I'm ready for a reprieve. 


I am loving that the boys are able to play more and more with each other. Sammy loves to make Jack laugh, and Jack is always pretty close in proximity to his brother. I hope it continues!


Dustin and Sammy went to an iCubs game on Thursday and had a great time together! Sammy got called onto the field to play a game and I think he ate everything being sold in the concession stand. I love the picture of the two of them! 

That's it for today, I hope everyone has a Happy Mother's Day this weekend! See you back here on Monday. XX

    I love that so many school join in with Teacher Appreciation week. How wonderful, teachers are amazing people!
    Oh gosh, the storms sound like such a worry.

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 and they were a hit! We loved this eas

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, where most of
