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!

Four Things right now

Four things about all of us right now... Grayson One- This boy has finally found his groove in 1st grade. Kinder to 1st was a big adjustment but he's doing well now. And he is a spelling champ! He does sooooo good on his spelling tests! Two- Hockey is life for this kid. He skates twice a week (once doing a hockey specific clinic and once doing family skate see below) His skills are really growing Three- He loves reading and so we are riding that wave all the way. Four- He has to wear his glasses full time now. What started out as hey wear these when you watch TV that is farther away or when you sit farther from the board has turned into needing them full time. Our school has a local organization that comes in and does eye assessments for free for the elementary schools and they sent home a letter saying get him to the eye doctor he needs glasses (well that was the jist of it) and we since we already had glasses from his eye doctor he just started with tho...

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 ...

Conferences, Grocery Pick up and trying to get out the door

I had grand plans to document our day on Friday. I was going for an every hour sort of thing and then after the 3rd hour lost track I will shoot for next Friday though we will see I'm off on Friday's ( all the happy faces for a 4 day work week and the $$$ saved on daycare ) It was our February break from school so Grayson is home too. I get up at 6:15 on Fridays which is sleeping for me because during the week I'm up at 5 and I head downstairs to do a workout. I'm in a funk right now with that stuff but I still move my body. Today I did a 10 min arm video and 10 min lower body video. I stretch for a few mins and I'm done just in time for Grayson to come wandering down the stairs. I chug some water. Check in with Michael and head upstairs to get Marshall and Charlotte from their beds. They both woke up dry (we are in the throws of potty training and are still in pull ups at night for now) They charge downstairs yelling that they have to pee and demanding...
