About Me

Oslo, Norway
Welcome to my blog! I am a wife and a Mommy of three. We have 2 daughters, Reagan and Hayden and a son, Grasyon. Here I write about our life happenings and try to capture memories the best I can. I hope this helps keep those close to us, in Texas, Iowa, Illinois, and beyond, a little more up to date while we're away. Enjoy!

Spring Break

Our spring break was very eventful. My sister came in town for a few days and it seemed like there was something planned for everyday. She got in town Monday afternoon and we went to Chick fil lay for lunch. We had kinda a low key day, however, we did hit up Target and Marshalls.

Reagan was showing off for Aunt Mae Mae at the Chick fil lay playground. We didn't spend to much time in there beacuse that place always fills up fast. It goes from being 2 kinds in there to 20 in no time. Reagan kept saying, "it's to loud."





Afterwards we just came home and hung out. I enjoyed the company and help during the day and we did some playing outside.

















That night was pizza night. Every monday we make homeade pizza and watch the bachelor. Tonight was even better because it was the finale! Reagan loves to help make the pizza.


She looks like a chef in all this white!






While Paw and Reagan finished the pizza, Nonna rocked Grayson to sleep.


So sweet.


The next day we had all planned to go to the Arboredum. They were having a tiny tots event so we took the kids. Reagan loves Maverick. Even though he is not much younger than her, she treats him like he is so little. She loves to love and hug on him.


BFF's

Reagan looks like such a big girl in this picture.













And of course, who else does Reagan always want to be with besides me? Dylan!! As long as Dylan is around she is happy. He is the greatest babysitter. Of course they have their moments, but for the most part, lately they have been wonderful together.












Maverick was running all over the place and managed to fall in the only mud pile there. He did not like it at all! Luckily it was a little chilly, so he had two shirts. Phew!





So cute.

Again, so cute.

And even cuter!








Gray did really good, I had him in the stroller and he slept for the most part. Towards the end he got a little a little fussy, so I changed him and fed him and he was good to go.



Wednesday Reagan spent the day with Aunt Tricia and Dylan while my sister and I shopped all day. I was in desperate need of some help with my wardrobe and sister came to the rescue. It was kinda hard to shop because I am not totally back to my pre-pregnancy weight. I still have about 7 more pounds to go, but I wanted to buy things that would fit me now and also when I lose the rest of the weight, which is tough to do. It's so funny how I can shop all day with a newborn now and it's easy, but when Reagan was a newborn I thought it was so hard. We shopped from 10am to around 4pm and Gray was up the whole time. For some reason he was being difficult that day, but that didn't stop me from shopping. And it was no big deal. A woman commented on how he must be my second child. She said I looked so calm, not like a first time mom. I thought that was so true, the second time around it is totally different. I joke that I can tackle anything as long as I just have one kid. I don't care which one, as long as I only have one!

Thursday I left Grayson with Honey and took Reagan to the zoo. Apparently everyone else had the same idea. The line just to exit from the highway was pack up and the parking line was crazy. It look us about an hour just to get inside the zoo. Once we were in we didn't have to wait in line because the McCoys's have season passes, we just walked on in!




















We didn't stay too long and I didn't really get any good pictures. It was not Reagan's day. She just wasn't into it for some reason. She wanted to be held the entire time, wasn't interested in looking at any animals and was just being a 2 year old. So we left early and headed back home. I did manage to get a few brother/sister St. Patty's day pictures.










Friday Darrin was here and we went to Chucke Cheese with Honey, Tricia and Dylan. For some reason I didn't take any pictures. Honey has some on her camera, but I don't have them yet.

Then Saturday we spend the day over at the Fitzgerald's. Their little boy was turning 2 and had a birthday party for him. We had a blast. It was a Mickey party and Micky showed up to entertain the kids. Reagan didn't want to much to do with him at first, but once he started with the hokey pokey she was lovin' it. She is a hokey pokeying queen right now! The party ended at 5 but we stayed until 8:30. We were all having such a good time. Again, no pictures. I don't really know why. I guess I was just enjoying my time talking and hanging out!

Sunday we hung out at the Snider's all day and grilled out. Darrin had a friend come over and we just relaxed outside. Congrats to Shawn and Stefanie who got engaged this week!
