 ~ WHAT I AM EATING THIS WEEK ~

Monday- Beef Enchiladas 
Tuesday- Dine to Donate Panda Express
Wednesday- Zoodles
Thursday- Thanksgiving
Friday- Pizza
Saturday- Dinner Out?
Sunday- ???

~ WHAT I AM REMINISCING ABOUT ~


I have an addiction to Time Hop on my phone. I am on day 1145 in a row. It pulls photos and posts from my Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Google Photos, and Camera Roll. Right now is a lot of Thanksgiving, grateful, Elf on the Shelf memories, other holiday traditions (some of which are being switched up this year), and lots of photos of the kids.


I am unfortunately in the habit of comparing Austin and Audrianna. They are 4 days less than 4 years apart. Austin was such a chunky little baby, with barely any hair.

 

Audrianna is the opposite with lots of hair and just starting to chunk up. There is a big difference between girls and boys and formula fed and breastfed babies, I know this. 


Here is Aubriella just a few weeks old. I can't believe I have an 8 year old.


5 years ago we surprised Ella and went on the Polar Express and she loved it. This year we took all the kids on the Polar Express and Austin was in heaven and Ella still loved it. Some places and memories are for all ages. 

~ WHAT I AM LOVING ~




For Mother's Day two years ago I got a hibiscus tree. We thought it was suppose to come back every year but then found out it was only a one season tree. (why would you spend $50 on a tree that isn't going to last?) When colder temps hit we bring the tree in the house and it sit in front of our patio window all winter. This year when the tree was outside all summer it seemed like it was dieing, one 1 or 2 flowers. Since we have brought it in the house about 2 months ago we have had over 13 flowers. They are so beautiful. Everyday the kids and I look for any new buds.



These lips. She is so precious when she is sleeping. (She is precious and happy when she is awake too)


Audrianna's new thing is touching my face while she is feeding. At first I wasn't so sure about it, but now I think it is sweet. I will miss it when she stops.


This smile and that hair. We are going through hair styles. It is getting to long to spike anymore, but we don't want her to look like Trump and still to short to do a Peebles. 

~ WHAT WE HAVE BEEN UP TO ~



Aubriella and I had a mother daughter date that started with Starbucks and Target. Ella showed me a bunch of stuff she would like for Christmas, mostly craft and art supplies.


Austin has been getting more and more cuddly when my arms are free. I think he is jealous of Audrianna usually being in my arms.


Lots of play time (and cuddles and feeding) with the little princess. She likes to go from her play mat to her exersaucer to the floor to the pack and play. Audrianna doesn't like to stay in one place to long.


We finally had a nice enough day to rack leaves and jump in them. 


Brian and I had a somewhat date night, but I will take it. Ella was with her dad, Austin went to the in laws, then Audrianna, Brian and I went to a birthday party, did a little Christmas shopping and stopped to get appetizers. 


Audrianna turned 4 months


We had our first snow.


We hosted our 3rd Annual Friendsgiving.


We surprised the kids with riding the Polar Express


They got a golden ticket


And Santa gave everyone a bell


I see this is how our year is going to be with Santa photos.
