Happy Monday

I'm not really happy it's Monday because that means I'm back at work while my boys are home still snuggles under blankets on the couch. However I'm trying to be positive.


Here are some bullet points of our life lately and the goings on.

Grayson is potty trained even at night and during nap! High five to no more diapers!!
He had his 2.5 year check up (insert crying face here why does he have to get big?) He is a doing wonderful but of course didn't say 2 words to the doctor until she was about to leave and then he names off all colors of the rainbow and counted to 10. That kids drives me crazy because he talks non stop but if he gets shy he will not speak at all. He had to get a flu shot and did not even wince or cry at all. So that earned him ice cream after dinner. Love this little underwear wearing boy!



We picked apples again this weekend and it was perfect because it was 60 and sunny and that is the perfect time to pick apples. We also enjoyed homemade donut!



Grayson now gets to do show and tell at school once a week on Wednesday's and he chose this tractor and rock to take to school. #suchaboy


Our Bills are 1-1 and while I wish we would have slaughtered Tom Brady and Patriots I will say that we played arguably the best team in NFL and only lost by one score. That's not bad for a team that last year was not so great. In all reality we could only have 1 loss this year. We will see. I'm a die hard Bills fan and that will never change. 


Last week this was my Jesus Calling and man did I need to hear it. Sometimes I get caught up in the planning that I miss the true joy! So I have been trying to let God figure out the details a little bit more lately.


And it was 47 when I woke up today! Welcome Fall!

Friday Favorites

Love that it's Friday Love that its Friday and we have a beautiful weekend ahead of us! Linking up with Andrea today! One These PJ's. When we first got married (and even before I was married really) I used to wear cute PJ's to bed and then I started to wear not so cute PJ's to bed so I ordered some new ones and OMG girls get these now. So so soft so so comfy and under $20.00! Plus they have pockets!   Two While your shopping at Kohls throw some of these picture frames in your cart! Just for fun! I love that they are easy to change out and have a distressed look! Plus they can sit on a shelf or be hung on the wall. Love! Three We have been swimming like crazy and that equals all the things that go with swimming like a million towels and swim suits. My bathroom was a mess. I usually never wash my swim suits I just rinse them out and hang dry they last a lot longer doing it that way and so I had things hanging every where! So I ord

A nice little sweet spot

The sweet spot…. We seem to have hit one. I feel like we have not been in a sweet spot since the twins were about 6 months old. You know before they were mobile and can get into a ton of mischief. When kids are 0-6 months they still like to be held they eat mostly bottles and they mostly just stay in one spot. No issues, you can go places and even though you have to pack up your whole house to be prepared you can relax. And if you are in my family someone is always willing to hold or feed or change a baby. 7-months to 2.5 years old is what I refer to as the lost years. You have so many things you have to do for them they are not potty trained and they are mobile and get into EVERYTHING. Going outside is more work than its worth and with twins they scatter in opposite directions. Three on one is so hard handle in big open spaces. I would often find myself skipping outside time because the work was just too much for me. When the twins turned 3 and Grayson was 6 it felt like we had a

Home Schooling

Ah home schooling something that all of the country was thrown into. March 13 th was the last day that Grayson went to school and Charlotte and Marshalls last day was March 12 th . We got the call on March 15 th that school was closed for 2 weeks and that a pick up for at home materials would be on Tuesday. It was not required just suggested and so we loosely did school work. A worksheet here, spelling words here, some math problems ya know simple things. We truly believed that 2 weeks and they would be back in the classroom that is what the district presented as happening and so the distance learning was just to occupy time not to really learn anything new. Everything we were given was review.  Then we got the notification March 30 th we were closed again for another 2 weeks. Again, we were being loose with the learning because I was now working from home all but one day a week and had all three kids home and lets be honest it was a lot. Michael was still working 4-5 days a wee
