Friday Favorites [8-30-2024]

 


It's the end of our first full week of school with students, and I don't know that I've ever been so happy to see a Friday. 😉 I'm linking up with Erika and Andrea to share a few favorites from this busy week. 


I made these savory sausage muffins this weekend and they were a favorite for quick breakfast option! Dustin really liked them, too. 


Sammy is settling into the groove of kindergarten! He wakes up excited to go each day, and we're so thankful for supportive family members who can help get him to and from school safely. On this day my aunt picked him up and had her dog with her. He was so excited! 


Last weekend the boys (and I) had a jammie morning. We were so happy to be home relaxing together! I'm looking forward to a repeat this weekend. 

In so many ways I think I prepared Sammy well for kindergarten and knew how to make the transition smooth for him. However - I neglected to think of myself through this transition. Haha. I miss having "access" to my boy during the day! If I had a question, I could quick text his childcare provider and hear back instantly about how he was doing. If there are any veteran moms reading, I'll take any and all tips about how to get through this. My sweet parents sent me some flowers to boost my spirits after a hard drop off (for me - not him 😅). I know things will get easier, but boy - I am missing my Sammy! 

Today's post is short and sweet. I didn't have much to share! It's my goal to be back posting consistently next week. I miss it! I'm going to take the long weekend, and I'll be back here on Tuesday. XX

    I love the sound of those muffins, what a great breakfast.
    That is great that Sammy has settled into kindergarten well. Sending love and hugs. It is hard seeing our little one's start school but it does get easier.

Friday Favorites [9-6-2024]

  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...
