Our Week

~ Monday ~

I had my 6 week checkup (from giving birth)…all is well with me!

Zane was my side-kick. And everyone loved him :)

Then I conquered two grocery stores with two kids. 

My first time. I was proud!

After the grocery stores success - I took the boys to the park.

We have had the most beautiful week and I am taking full advantage of it!

Jaxen was tuckered out from all the fun at the park…

and fell asleep in the tent we built in his room.

That night we had dinner with friends.

They live close enough that we enjoyed a family walk to and from their  house.

(you can see Nik and Jaxen further down the sidewalk).

~ Tuesday ~

So Monday night, Nik shaved his beard off and then Tuesday, he got a haircut.

Jaxen has been saying the funniest thing to Nik all week:

“Daddy, I like your mouth.”

Hahahaha!!!!

~ Wednesday ~

We met up with some friends at the park again Wednesday morning.

After a Sonic Stop :)

Then we came home and since Zane was sleeping, 

Jaxen and I had our snack on the porch while we waited for his OT to start.

OT on the front porch.

Nothing better in Jaxen’s mind!

This cutie is getting more and more active.

It is so fun to see him move and smile more!

~ Thursday ~

After Nik received a phone call from me on Wednesday

where I was super frustrated over something that should not have been frustrating…

he decided to take Thursday off.

He knew I was exhausted (and that he was leaving again Friday for 4 days)

and decided I needed him home and we needed to have a little family time.

Best. Decision. Ever.

He let me take a morning nap on Thursday while he took care of Jaxen and drove him to school.

Then he did a few things around the house that I needed him to take care of.

And since it was such a beautiful day we decided to have a picnic lunch at the river!

It was such a nice time.

Just the four of us.

It was needed.

 That was our week in a nutshell!

Bring on the weekend :)
