Halloween 2021


Oatmeal pumpkin chocolate chip muffins for snack 

Trick or treating as warmly as possible. 







Elias could not believe how much candy he got. He wasn’t old enough to trick or treat two years ago and last year was canceled. 










Cathedral Trunk or Treat



















A Pet

This is the closest thing to a pet my kids will probably ever have. Plus it’s super fun to watch Lewis take care of it. 

Two moths escaped so no more moths. 



The fly worked perfectly. Lewis is hoping to find a spider next. 

Fun Times


Elias currently loves this puzzle. Luckily, I like it too. 

Cousin time is always the best time. 

Lewis got his own library card! 

The middle paper. 

It’s Off!

Now three weeks in a brace and then hopefully back to gymnastics and all the fun things. 

Back to Me & Him

It’s just Levi and I during the day again now that we’re over covid. The big boys are all happy to be back in school. They say it’s less boring than being home all the time. 

Turns out Levi is allergic to some bandaids. It took three days to clear up. 

He finds cozy paces to sit lately. Here…

and here. 

Daddy took him on a fantastic adventure…to see a real live turtle! Levi got a little stuffed turtle last summer on our family vacation and it is always with him. He often asks for help finding “bee-tee turtle” (binki and turtle). 

We got out our toddler toys and they we’re like new since we hadn’t seen them in a while. 

Levi has some great building skills both with blocks and Magnatiles. 






He sees his brothers read while they eat breakfast so he did the same.

Birthday Parade


Lewis really wanted a birthday parade but I told him no because people won’t really come to those anymore now that we can live carefully with covid. Then we got covid, so I figured people would come if we were quarantined. 



Grandma Kathleen even called LPD for a cruiser drive by!
















It was a fun morning!
