5 year and 18month doc visit

I booked 4 appointments today. Yup all in one day. As a working mom, I need to use my days off wisely. I survived! Whew! 

We were up early like any other day. Had breakfast and out the door we went! 

First to the dentist for Mr K. Then Mr K's 5 year checkup and baby M's 18 month checkup and needle... a quick stop at home for lunch then it was back out to baby M's ear doc appt.

They did so well! They were both on their best behavior! Baby M didn't even cry or make a peep when he got his needle! Super strong! 

Mr K is 37.4lbs and baby bro 21.4lbs slim guys the doc says ha! He did mention adding daily vitamin D to their diets. So we will do that! They had perfect checkups. I can't believe baby M is almost 18months old!!!!!! 

Baby M's ear tubes fell out already so he is booked in for another procedure :( but this will help him so much. Less ear infections makes for a happy kiddo. 

What are these kids up to these days...

Baby M feeds himself with a fork which is the cutest. His favorite foods are - Pasta and meatballs. Blueberries and bananas. French fries and chicken nuggets and all kinds of dairy free junk foods. And once in a while he gets his hands on foods he shouldn't eat! This boy is always eating!!

 
 Mr K is currently in weekly swimming lessons and weekly piano lessons. He loves both! So proud of this little guy!

 

February is jammed packed with fun. We are excited. Lots of birthdays and fun events!  

 
 
 

Kids Calendar

Last summer while I was shopping for ink at Staples, I came across a school calendar. It's a calendar for the school year. I call it, the mommy calendar. Ha!

It comes with all these event stickers too which makes it fun for the kids to put on. 

 

 

With the kids appointments and events and our own appointments and events, we need this calendar. On top of our phone reminders and calendar this one is right in the laundry room, right in front of the door we walk in from. 

Today we had one of those busy appointment days. 

Baby M had his allergy test in the morning. The good news is that the reaction to dairy is less than it was the last time we did this test. So things are looking positive that he may outgrow this allergy. 

Then in the afternoon Mr K had his dental cleaning. 

He just strolled in and out of there like it was an afternoon coffee date haha. 

 

We had a quiet weekend. Swimming lessons and piano lessons, a stroll through IKEA, and a lot of movie watching with popcorn. And a little Sunday baking :) 

  

Oh and how can I forget, Friday night sushi! Mr K's fave!

 

We haven't been to IKEA in years! 

IKEA furnished our first home back in 2005. We lived at IKEA!! It brought back so many memories. The smell of those cinnamon buns took me right back to the feelings and memories of us being young and renovating a hundred year old home. 

So long ago! 

 

Sunday I felt like I lived in the kitchen. Cooking breakfast, lunch and dinner for these hungry boys. I baked carrot cupcakes nomnomnom which I ate wayyyy too many of. And for breakfast we had Baleadas. We have them every weekend. A yummy Honduran breakfast. 

A yummy warm flour tortilla, regret beans, avocado, eggs, cheese mmm we add bacon sometimes too. Soo good! 

I could go for one right now! 

It was nice having this long weekend. 

Now it's back to the school/Work rush tomorrow, and looking forward to the weekend! 

Have a great week friends! 

 
 

 

 
 

It's a beautiful day!

Those are my 4 year olds words every morning when he wakes up and looks out the window. He always makes sure that I SEE it too. "Mom, mom! did you see! It's a beautiful day!" 

We can learn a lot from these little people. :) 

I'm so proud of my little 4 year old. He melts my heart with his energetic personality, excitement for every little thing, gratefulness, kindness, loving, oh the list goes on. 

Our kids grow soo fast! I never want to forget these precious moments! 

He's an awesome big brother to baby M, but he is a 4 year old so of course he loves to bug his baby brother to get a good laugh. 

He loves watching E.T ha! I think that's hilarious. 

He loves school, and doing so well! With a big interest in the math and sciences. 

He had his first dental work done, a few fillings for this little. 

He did great! So brave! 

Our backyard fence is going up as we speak. We got this bouncy for the kids to enjoy.

Soccer begins at the end of the month and we just bought a baseball glove and bat to practice that! 

We are excited for this beautiful weather! 

And today. It's a beautiful day! Have a great Wednesday friends!
