Happy Halloween!

Branko is getting good at putting clothes on himself, especially Conrad's clothes. They fit like a glove!
Making worms in dirt dessert (in a different pair of Conrad's pants)

Branko fell off his bike at school and cut his chin open again after a fall running into Bennett, when it's cold, you can still see the redness from it a month and a half later!



cute feet!

Branko loves playing with the snapchat "spooky" filters

My mom got the boys season passes to Green Meadows, this was the last weekend they were open until next year. As being passholders, we got to pick out pumpkins from the pumpkin patch. Little did I know, there weren't any left and it was SO hard pushing them in the stroller in the mud. Eventually, I just parked the stroller and picked out a few pumpkins and called it a day.




Our neighborhood does their trick or treat the Saturday before Halloween. The city always does it on the Sunday before. The neighborhood goes ALL out and it truly feels like you're in a movie. We set up our patio furniture in the garage as it's next home is down in the basement for the winter. 

Spider oreo cookies
I got a little festive with the food
last but not least, pumpkin oranges!
We set up the jumpy house in the front yard, it was a hit with all the kids




Since trick or treating at Jellystone, Branko has been obsessed with "spooky skeletons." Our plan B costume were skeleton pajamas. He didn't want to wear the pants, but at least we got the shirt on and he let me paint his face! Branko had a BLAST! He loved being able to finally knock on the neighbors doors and say "Trick or Treat" "Thank you! Happy Halloween!"

One house a few blocks away sets up a maze getting to their door. The owners spend multiple weekends getting this all set up, it even had me jumping from being startled!

Every day we go for a walk, Branko sits across the street and stares at this neighbors yard. He was in awe being able to stand so close to it. Again, he stood there for a while soaking it all in.

Conrad enjoyed staring at everything too.



The next day, my mom came up to pass out candy. We decided to take Branko trick or treating one more time around the neighborhood as he had so much fun the day before. 




He got to go through the maze again!


Spaghetti for dinner!

Halloween pants and Christmas decor

Patricks Aunt Julie got the boys matching sweaters with their names, I just love them so much!

My  mom got a new desk for the boys









I got to take Conrad to the zoo by myself one day. Instead of pushing him the stroller, I decided to wear him so he got a different perspective of the zoo. I think he enjoyed himself.

Eating the Halloween cookies, of course Branko chose the Frankenstein one with black frosting!



Now that Halloween is over, it's time to think about Thanksgiving. Here is Branko's "Turkey in disguise."

My co worker gave us some winter gear that didn't fit her boys anymore. Branko tried on the snow pants and said he was a firefighter!

  Someone got into the red paint post bath.. Fun trip to the library This wall had them entertained for a while Conrads a bit more of a nurturer than his brother Get in m belly! Farm fresh eggs from Taylor! Branko has been a huge super hero lover these days. He has 6 stretchy small super heros that I actually got for Conrad for valentines day. The material its made out of gets full of lint and hair, so Branko gives them "baths". Playing with the outdoor lights. There was a crazy storm one night and Branko set up Hulk/Ironman in the window to watch the storm with him. I thought I had a picture of it, I guess not! Pics from school :) Our photo frame is always a big hit with the boys Panera (or First Watch) with Grandma Conrad is so proud of himself getting the coins in the piggy bank A normal night in super hero capes and Conrad climbing on the end table/couch My oldest is getting too big to carry :( Enjoying a rare solo bath Culvers, yummmm Enjoying the spring air!

Disney World and baby #3!!

Both boys fell asleep as soon as we landed.... in Orlando. We waited for everyone to get off the plane before waking up these sleeping beauties. We started the trip out rough, I was super sick with no energy the day before we left and Patrick had the same symptoms the day we left. I think we may have had Covid after hearing what other people's symptoms were after we got back. I didn't want to bring their car seats, so we booked a bus to take us from the airport to our hotel. NEVER AGAIN! (at least while the boys are this young). We waited in the airport for the bus for an hour and a half. Recipe for disaster after waking up early, driving to Midway airport, being on a plane, waiting in line for the bus, and then sit on the bus to get to the resort. It was a lot and not a great way to start the trip. We'll get a car rental next time. Yes, we thought about an uber, but they only have options for 1 carseat. We stayed at the Contemporary Resort to be on the monorail and close t...

 On Wednesdays, Branko has daycare, leaving me with the two younger boys. To be honest, having all three of them is easier than juggling the younger two by myself. Conrad is at a tough age right now where he wants all of my attention and gets aggressive/jealous when I need to feed or hold Michael. On this particular day, we needed to get out of the house, so Conrad led us through Target. He ran away twice, which was fun chasing him with the doona stroller. Thankfully, it wasn't busy! I hate the running away phase! We also went to my favorite coffee shop. Meanwhile, Branko learned about trains at school and was excited to go to his mama's house as his destination. Michael has started to be more alert these days. I just LOVE his eyes Superhero brothers! Our neighbors who live behind us babysit for us sometimes and this particular day Carsen was on spring break and lent a hand on a Friday where it was me and all three while Patrick was working. She played with the older boys and h...
