Happy Thanksgiving!

My sister moved in with my parents bringing in some new animals into the house. Branko talks about Bourbon and Kipper (the dogs) a lot, but doesn't bring up the reptiles too often!





Branko has been refusing naps lately, so we're working on "quiet time." For some reason, he always takes off his pants and eventually pees in this basketball waste basket looking game. I have since thrown it away and he no longer pees anywhere anymore. (knock on wood). He did this 2 or 3 times before I finally threw it away!


A group of my coworkers get together every year for Friendsgiving, here's our group shots!



Fall is in the air!



Branko got invited to his first birthday party at a jumpy place! He sure had a good time!



Pics from daycare









Double seats!


We went to Eddies one day for lunch and football, the boys had a great time!



Pics from Grandma and Grandpa!







We put up our tree the weekend before Thanksgiving, Branko had fun putting up the ornaments and Conrad had fun taking them off the tree. It took me 3 days to get the tree complete, but it's up and it looks perfect!







Branko thought bunching up tin foil would be an touch to the tree.



We celebrated Thanksgiving on my side the day after and we got to meet the newest member of the family, Zoe!





You may not be able to see, but there is a bearded dragon on Conrad's left arm.






Conrad sure loves his baby cousin!

So bummed this picture is blurry!





We got a little bit of snow that melted the next day. I couldn't find Branko's gloves, needless to say, we are not prepared for winter!


My friend Mary Bryn was in town from Maryland, so we all got together to hang out. Not all of the kiddos are pictured, but out of six girls, we 've all had boys...six boys!! 

All of these boys were born in 2022!


Conrad was feeling a bit under the weather as we had RSV in our house. He got to experience his first cake pop!



We're redoing our guest bathroom, here is our new tub!! Pics coming soon!

First smiles!

Image
November 6th was our little guys first real smile, and boy does it make all the exhaustion worth it! Starting to bring his hands together :) Nora being put to work and getting to feed her baby cousin! More smiles with Auntie Jodi! My favorite time of day are mornings in bed with Branko, that’s if he slept well the night before. But he is extra smiley in the morning! And those blue eyes really pop with the lighting in our room! Fun filters with Nora! This was the first onesie I bought when I was pregnant. I was in Arizona with some girlfriends for the Waste Managemenr golf tournament back in Jan/early Feb. I didn’t realize it at the time, but the onesie is a tad girly with the ruffled sleeves! (hard to tell in this picture). I like to call this the “Bjorn” shirt. If you know, you know.  Since the masters were cancelled this year, it was rescheduled for November. Patrick and Branko have matching “Yama boy” shirts. Hidecki MatsuYAMA is a Japanese golfer who Oatrick is obsessed with. Him a

Christmas in Florida!

Image
 We were lucky to spend another Christmas in Florida with Patrick's mom, sister, and papa. These pictures uploaded in reverse order, but you'll get the idea. We had an early flight that left at 6:40 AM, yikes! I was nervous with how Branko would do, but he did fabulous waking up at 4AM and acted like it was a normal morning. We got to the airport and through the line for security when my ticket wouldn't scan. My husband thinks my birthday is June 20th and not June 25th! This isn't the first time he's done this. Last time was before our trip to Cabo (that we never got to go to due to Pat hurting his back), however, Patrick caught it the day before we were supposed to leave. Luckily, the airport wasn't too packed and we were able to get through the line again without any wait. We were very lucky to fly out before this "massive" snowstrom that was to come. Schools were cancelled-including colleges during finals week, allowing for kids to have 2 days extra

Ozarks 2023!

Image
We went to the Ozarks a week earlier than normal, and the weather was much more bearable this year. (Or maybe it wasn't as miserable being outside because I wasn't pregnant). The boys did great during the drive. They both were starting to lose it in St. Louis-which worked out because we were going to stop there for lunch anyway. Then, they lost it when we got to Branson-which worked out because we were there!  This photo is out of order, but Branko was Nora's shadow the whole trip! Thank you for taking him under your wing Nora! He sure looks up to you. When we arrived, we settled into our room. It was the perfect room for us-main level, corner room, with no neighbors on either side of us. Hopefully we didn't wake our neighbors above and below us!  The car was pretty tight, but only because our stroller takes up most of the space! Branko didn't nap the whole way down, but was very content watching shows on his tablet.  Our first morning, Mary was making bacon, and sh
