Mini Vacation!

My little family and I are doing a little in-town vacation, starting tomorrow :) We are staying in a hotel for 2 nights, and then taking the bebe's to Cliff's Amusement park. It probably won't compare to Cedar Point, but I have wanted to go there ever since we moved here, 5 years ago. I'll be sure to take lots of pictures, and follow me on IG if you don't already ;) "lovebodysoul". I hope everyone has a safe and fun Memorial weekend! :)

Hai??

It's been.. 20 days since my last post. I need to change this, because I plan on having this blog for a long time, and want to actually be able to look back on these things, which, is impossible if I never blog!!

Anyways, things have been pretty great around here. I've been spending tons of time on instagram, buying nail polish and other stuff I don't need, and trying to get little Noah walking. He isn't really interested in walking; or standing unassisted. Actually, he doesn't even want stand assisted. He had his 12 month checkup last Friday, and the doctor isn't worried, so I'm not worrying too much. He will walk when he is ready!

Cody is going to be... 5.. yes, FIVE in just over 2 weeks. Where has the time gone?! ): I've got all of his papers filled out for kindergarten, I have to drop them off on Wednesday. This Friday is his last day of school, then I have a kindergartner. He's so smart. He doesn't really listen to us, but he is excellent in school. I'd rather him be a crazy kid at home, and so good at school. His teacher told Nate that Cody is the best student she's ever had. She is ALWAYS raving about Cody. I am so so so proud of him. He got glasses last Thursday. He doesn't like keeping them on, at all. Hopefully, we can work on that. 

Here are a few pictures from the past couple weeks :)

 walking with the family!

 I never noticed the difference between cheap nail polish, and ones like Essie and OPI. Essie wins.

 My boys got me this for mothers' day :)

 We got these for Noah, and went to 3 different walmarts to find matching ones for Cody. 

 Cody and his glasses!

Oh hai!

I have to start on dinner very soon, but wanted to update quickly.

The weather has been staying nice, finally. I can't wait until they open the pool up here.

I have really just been doing a whole lot of crocheting, so that I can open up my own etsy store very soon! I have a few orders that I got the past couple of days. So, I have been a busy bee.

Cody had an eye appointment last week, and we found out that he is VERY far-sighted, and needs glasses. We are going to order those Friday after he gets out of school. He is going to be 5 in just over a month, and I'm thinking of doing a party at Peter Piper or Chuck e cheese. Not my ideal place, but he loves it at places like that. It would really be only friends, since our family is back home, but I really feel like he is getting to the age where he would really enjoy a birthday party with kids his age.

I really need to be starting dinner now, but here are some instagram pictures of the past week. (I really need to pull out my Nikon more)

 about everything we can do on a balcony. Sandbox, garden, and there's 2 birdfeeders. Only 1 is pictured. We also laid out carpet on the concrete.

 homemade broccoli cheddar soup in homemade whole wheat bread bowls. Yum.

 New clothes for Noah from Gymboree!

 Making his own pizza for lunch!
