1 Month

Oops! How I did I go a whole month without blogging? Here is a picture overload in no particular order.

I had a couple days alone with just Easton. Some friends of ours invited us out on their boat both days. Easton was excited to be on the water. It's way easier doing things with just 1 child vs all 3 of them.

While I had my one on one time with Spencer, Nolan spent time with Grandma and Grandpa one on one. They think he is pretty easy to have when it's just him. Grandpa took him fishing.

They had dinner at the root beer stand.

Nolan got to tag along to a retirement party.

Grandma found some old toys for him to play with.

And the lucky little boy even got to go golfing with Grandpa.

While Spencer was at reading camp Easton and Nolan attended Bible camp. This is by far one of their favorite camps.

See this mole on Nolan's head…. we were referred to a pediatric dermatologist. We go in a week. His Dr said it looked slightly more irritated then what he likes to see and wants to be safe it's nothing to worry about. Fingers crossed!

We went back to school shopping with the boys. They were excited to stand by the turtle from Wonder Pets. Once again Spencer still won't get close to things in a costume.

It was time to finally take the boys to Build A Bear. It took them forever to decide on an outfit for their bears. I can't imagine doing this job but the people working there truly seem to like what they do!

They had them do all kind of things to their plastic hearts before putting them in the bear.

I thought he made a cute bear!

We have a Badger Player.

And Heidi the Marine

Nolan's so cute when he sleeps.

This however doesn't look comfortable.

Nor does this….

Ryan got away for a few days and had a guys weekend with his dad and brother. They met up in New Jersey where JB lives.

Nolan making himself right at home at Grandma's. He hardly made it in the door before getting comfortable.

Every once in awhile Josie will still have accidents. Easton likes to help clean them up.

We had National Night Out! It's a tradition now to grill in the middle of the cul-de-sac and hang out with the neighbors. This was the first time we got to see how well Josie does with the invisible fence. She couldn't cross over to where all the people and food were. It was nice and she's really learning how the fence works, it's been great.

When we hang out with the neighbors you never know what will happen.

I feel lucky that not only is Amanda my neighbor but also one of my best friends.

And this is why we don't have gum….. How does this even happen?

Reagan had lunch with us at Buffalo Wild Wings. The easiest place to bring kids.

The older boys had school picture/registration day. Nolan wanted to check himself out also. 

Spencer waiting for friends to come find him on the Buddy Bench.

Easton was practicing smiling for the camera.

I love Nolan's hair longer but it's a crazy mop most of the time.

This is how Easton felt about our long drive to Green Bay. We were on our way for the family night game. 

All 3 were excited when we got there. 

I wish I could request a room off by itself whenever we stay in a hotel. I never know how excited/wild they will be about staying in a hotel.

Nolan was SOOOO excited to see Lambeau Field for the first time!

We tailgated with friends from Hudson. 

This was it the first time all 5 of us were able to go to the game. It was Nolan's first year. 

Ryan and Nolan walking into Lambeau together

The boys needed to move around a bit so we went and found the temporary tattoo booth.  

They were so proud of their new tattoos. 

Nolan just couldn't last anymore and fell asleep on my lap. 

It was only a few years before when it was Easton sleeping on my lap. 

By the end of the night everyone was tired! 

Easton picked out 2 things in the pro shop. A new real jersey and packer arm warmers only he uses them as leg warmers.

Spencer also got leg warmers and Nolan picked out a t-shirt. 

On our way home from the game we stopped at Grandma's. Timber was there visiting. 

Grandma had won a pool party package for the kids. We invited some friends to join us. Their set up was unbelievable. The kids loved the pool...

But their indoor gym was over the top amazing. 

This blue under armer outfit is Nolan's favorite thing to sleep in. 

Again, Easton this doesn't look comfortable and this isn't where you were when you first fell asleep.

The week of summer the boys really look forward to, Camp St. Croix. Spencer along with Finley (who was staying with us for a week) did climbing camp with the other two did the traditional day camp.

To cool off the boys went for a swim after camp. 

Had dinner int he trampoline. 

Relaxed and watched movies on the couch. 

The mornings were easy because they were excited for camp. 

Nice face Nolan.

Their backpacks and lunch bags often came home like this. 

Sam spent a few mornings with us before camp. They LOVE watching YouTube videos right now. 

Each night we attempted to wash all the dirt off. 

There were a few late nights but for the most part they were so tired in the evening that they would pass out.

I had my annual girl's weekend at a friends cabin. At the cabin there is a small pipe that sticks out of the ground. Well, Heather didn't see it and ran it over. Her car ended up needing to be towed. As if that isn't bad enough while there the tow truck started on fire!

So then the tow truck needed to be towed. 

This calls for the selfie stick! 

We posed with the tow truck drivers! 

Girls weekends is a time to let loose and have fun. There's always a human pyramid. 

Lots of drinks are had. It's a great time to spend with friends minus our kids when we can really sit back  and relax.

Ryan took the boys to see what was on the other side of the dam by Grandma and Grandpa's. We always see the top when we are on Grandpa's boat but they've never been to the other side. Ryan said it was really neat. 

Easton tried and got up on the kneeboard. 

Spencer did the knee board also…

Easton's allergies are bad. His eyes are puffy and swollen and his nose is dripping and red. It amazed me though that even though we are a few weeks in to Spencer's allergy shots being outside didn't bug him at all. I won't be surprised if we go down this same path of allergy shots for Easton. They make such a difference. 

Here we are playing Tenzi while we kill the 30 minutes we have to wait after. 

Easton fed Spencer a snack cause Spencer's arms hurt.

Ryan attended the PGA Championship and look who he spotted! #12 (Aaron Rodgers)

Josie loves just hanging out in my car. 

Ryan took the boys to the annual beach house week with Grandpa Ron and his family. The weather wasn't the best but that didn't stop the boys. They went swimming, kayaking, fishing, tubing, playing with cousins and oh did I mention fishing?

Nolan looking for minnows.  

Spencer loved fishing so much that he was even out there in the pouring rain by himself

They stayed in a hotel near the beach house, and the boys still wanted to swim at night!

There is a pool on the grounds and the boys had a blast jumping in. Spencer liked to show off his flips!

The last day they were there it was low 60 degrees and a little rainy. But they still had a blast

Josie isn't allowed to sleep on our bed but when her bed is on our bed I guess that's ok. 

Josie likes to sleep in the bathroom while the boys are in the tub. 

Once again how cute is he sleeping?

Little brother giving big brother a ride.

Wild man Nolan with wild hair!

Nolan went to his best friend Jake's birthday party. He asked Mrs. Amanda if he could bring power ranger swords home for his brothers.

Best buds!

Summer is coming to an end and we still have so many things I want to do. We never made it to the drive-in but this is just as good. Mr. Nic did a movie night. The kids laid like that for about 20 minutes but then they were up running around playing games in the dark. It wore Easton out so much that he slept in until 12:30 the next day.

We have 1 full week left of summer. I hope to fill it with lots of adventures and playing. I'm so excited for them to start school but I will miss our lazy summer days.
