Hi. Hello. It’s been a busy couple of weeks! Last weekend we had non-stop plans with family and friends. Let’s get to it, shall we?
Awesome things from this week:
1. Last Friday night we had friends over for dinner that we haven’t hung out with in a while. It was fun to catch up with them! Good food, good wine, good friends – great night! I was up past midnight, which I never am. I was SO tired Saturday morning!
2. Saturday morning our circus loaded up in the car and headed to K2’s house so the rest of the fam could meet her BABIES! At long last! My sister had twin girls a few months back, and they’ve had a long road in NICU. But they’re HOME! And they’re HEALTHY! And we were SO excited to be able to have the cousins meet. Reese was so sweet, she sang to them when they got fussy. One not awesome thing to add: Lincoln decided it’d be fun to jump off the bottom of their stairs onto hardwood floors. He cut his lip so bad we thought he bit through it. Cue our first trip to urgent care! He was fine. No stitches necessary. Just a gnarly fat lip for a day or so.
3. Saturday night we went over to some friends’ house for dinner! The kiddos all played like maniacs. They have stairs too, so it gave me a mild heart attack again with Lincoln.
4. Sunday morning the circus headed to church! My nieces were baptized that morning and I’m officially a god mother!
5. Post-baptism get together back at K2’s house with lots of family and good food.
6. We got home Sunday afternoon and every single one of us passed out for a couple of hours! The weekend wrapped up with a super easy dinner, a family movie and some popcorn!
7. Monday I got to take Dante to the vet. It was time for his rabies vaccine and his normal check up. 10 years old, and other than some arthritis in his leg, he’s super healthy! 74.2 lbs. His steel blue eyes have turned a bit cloudy and I was expecting to hear that it was cataracts. I has so happy to hear that the cloudiness is normal in aging dogs and his eyes are actually perfect!
8. Rylee had her first soccer game of the season on Tuesday night. They won 1-0! She had some serious hustle. It’s so fun to watch her play a sport when she actually tries. Homegirl is FAST.

Lip in question… totally fine by the time we saw the doctor at urgent care. Of course.
I actually think this one is from last week, but it’s too funny not to post it. Lincoln got his dinner taken away for feeding food to Dante while we were eating. That’s a no-no. He spent the entire rest of our meal side-eyeing the dog. It was hilarious.
We made dessert to take to our friends’ house on Saturday. Reese has happy to help.
Yesterday was national coffee day.
Lincoln and I had some alone time earlier this week while everyone else was at Ry’s practice. I love it when I get one-on-one time with my kiddos.
Tried to get a pic of Lincoln, Dante and me. That worked out well. At least Lincoln thought it was funny!
Pretty boy Dante.
Things I’m looking forward to next week…
1. Lincoln’s birthday is tomorrow!! TWO! Family brunch to celebrate in the morning.
2. I need to do a final fit test over the weekend. My fitness challenge group ends today, so now I need to compare my results and track my progress!
3. I have some ideas floating around in my head for sprucing up this space… hoping I get around to it next week!
Oh and I still haven’t made it to Costco. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
