Behind Schedule-Hayward, etc.

Well, life has gotten a little more crazy in the last few weeks. We went on a fun family cabin trip to Hayward, WI with my family. On the way up there, I got a call offering me a new job (I had an interview that morning). We got home on Thursday, I went to my old school to clean out my old classroom, went to a cabin on Saturday to celebrate Kathryn's upcoming wedding, and started my new job on Monday. I'll do my best to play catch up with my photos, as my phone is full of pictures. Thanks for a great week in Hayward Nana! We had a blast. 
Summer fun means days filled with lots of activities, which makes napping harder for Izzy. This particular day, she got up and wouldn't sleep, so I laid with her, she fell right asleep then.

Eating Mommy's birthday cake from Gma and Gpa for breakfast!

We went to the pool with Lainey our last week, these two are adorable together.

I'm not proud, but he is our second, so a little show at 5:30am (his new waking time) does us all good. 

Sharing her ice cream at our new local favorite, Cocoa Loco.

Last day of summer gymnastics, she has been showing us her moves since it ended. She can't wait for it to start again next week.


Izzy came with me to my old school to drop something off and got to play on the playground. 

She LOVED the equipment. 

It made me sad when she told me that she would get to play on this playground everyday soon when she starts Kindergarten. With my new job, I don't know if she will go to my school, which was my plan at my old school. :( Time will tell.

Izzy slept during the car ride to the cabin. Bobby wanted to party instead.

Showing off Kiki's FIRST PLACE medal! YEAH Kiki!

I can't imagine having twins, but these two are pretty funny together.

Pat playing with kiddos. 

Mealtime fun!

She looks so sad while on her time out. 

Izzy and Julie! 

Bobby was obsessed with this rocking chair!

Such a silly girl! First ponytail too!

Izzy asked that I include this photo of her in the hot tub.

He looks so old here!

Boat ride fun!

Life is so hard when your parents make you eat your mac and cheese. :)

Katelyn and George watched the kids while we got dinner ready. Here is their dance party for the kids as they ate. :)

Cabin life...playing in the bed of the truck.

Izzy slept on the floor for a few days, but would always manage to be in new positions when we'd come to bed. 

Tickle time.

Izzy trying out Uncle Tom's push up bars.

Izzy feeding Olivia.

We went to town on the rainy day. Bobby found a new hat.

Izzy LOVED the candy store.

So much to choose from.

She was in heaven.

I was in heaven too. A wall of jelly bellys!

Super proud!

These two are going to be trouble together soon!

George taught Izzy how to play 104 card pick up since they had two decks. 

Goofballs!

Bobby LOVED Katelyn!

Taking selfies together.

Bobber was getting some teeth and had a few off nights, so we were going on walks to try to get him to sleep, it didn't work. 

Our little family!

This girl!

Bobby fell asleep in the car after driving around to get him to sleep for a little bit. He is one stubborn boy.

Cheese sticks on a boat, doesn't get much better than that!

I thought this sign was funny at Famous Daves.

Bobby decided to pull out all of the kleenex from the box as I was packing up his stuff. Stinker.

Izzy colored so nicely while Bobby napped on the ride home.

Catch Up!

To say that life has been a little insane lately, would be an understatement. We have been busy, but having so much fun! The pictures will tell the stories...
 
Goofball trying on my shoes and doing some yoga!

Someone loved the American Girl Doll catalog and was pretty excited to see that Isabelle is the AGD of the year. Of course, only available until December. We shall see if Santa will come through. 

Picking out what she wants and thinks she earned haha.

These two were so cute together at the West End Concert last week.

Izzy waiting in line to try the hula hoop.

Seems so weird that she will be in preschool soon and be lining up a lot.

Evan came to play. These two are such buddies!

Jumpy house fun! We bounced with Evan and then my coworkers came over and jumped with their kids too!

A boy and his truck.
Friends from the start! Izzy and Lainy used to share a nanny at our house. They have too much fun together!

 This was a picture Izzy took on my phone. I think it is funny, if you look closely, you'll see Bobby on the monitor sitting up.

Girlfriends!

We stopped at a school playground on the way home. The kids loved the extra time to play and run around. 


These two!! Melt my heart all the time when they play and hug each other. 

Izzy sharing her juice with Bobby. Total second child, gets a juicebox at this age, Izzy didn't get one until she potty trained at 2!
