Hey friends. July has been an awesome month. From lots of time with family, celebrating Anna and Austin's birthdays, baseball, swimming, and more. Like always even with all the craziness I want to remember what brought me joy.
Memories
Austin finished out the season of baseball after not being able to play with his broken arm and nerve damage. He did great and his team went two 3 rounds into the playoffs.
At least once a day we see the deer in our yard. The excitement the kids get, the feeling of being not in the city, even though we are.
These two started off the month with nightly sleepovers, then Austin got sick and they haven't had once since. It was cute with the cuddles while it lasted.
Forth of July parade with friends.
Brian rented an excavator to move rocks and work on phase 2 of our backyard.
Anna turned 5.
Lots of ice cream, going to get some, at home, at friends, and at church.
Lots of time outside playing in the water. For their birthday Anna and Austin got a water slide.
We celebrated Anna and she got a mermaid cake.
We also celebrated Austin who picked out a video game cake.
Austin turned 9.
We went to Cedar Point 4 times a few times just our family, and a few times with friends.
Our last date night out with our church group. We went to Merwin's Wharf on the river. It was a beautiful evening and a great group of 8. (every few months they switch up the groups)
Random adventures. The kids and I went went to a few playgrounds, nature centers, hikes... and Knocking items off our bucket list.
We also had a packed picnic in the park. This was also my way of making sure Anna could open her own lunch for when she starts Kindergarten.
I have a real life mermaid.
A fun day at the zoo.
Another day at Cedar Point with the girls I nanny for a few days a week.
Games and Fun
Austin is still on a train kick. We went to library and he played with the trains. He also has his train set taking over his whole bedroom.
Arts and crafts. Anna loves doing crafts, coloring and painting. I love these painting pages that have the paint already on the paper.
Austin has been cleared to be a kid again. He has been riding his scooter a lot.
Anna and Austin got lots of Lego's for their birthdays. They have spent a lot of time building their new sets.
Products
I am back on my sourdough kick. Give me all the bread and bagels. I have also gotten my kids eating sourdough bagels.
Each month I get a wellness box with different products that I choose. This month I got coffee, lip gloss, and more.
New collab and affiliate with Just Meats. The protein comes pre cooked and pre seasoned. Just reheat and serve with your favorite sides. Last night we had herb roasted pork and it was delicious.
