Home life

Snow Day

Tomorrow is officially a day off for Mike and I. Why yes I would love a three day work week. I have chicken and dumplings in the crockpot and a pork roast to make tomorrow. Also, this is the first time in my whole life that I planned any sort of meal before I started making it. This is a milestone, people.

In honor of my excitement for a snow day (yes just like the excitement I felt as a small child) I took Alf outside and we snapped some photos. Not many of them turned out. He’s a fast little guy, but I got a few and I have to share.1Snow2Snow3Snow4Snow

Happy Snow Day brave friends.
Until next time,

Thankfulness {lately}

If you follow me on the instagram you might have noticed a “Thankful” theme. Yep it’s a real thing. I’m attempting to recognize one thing I’m grateful for each day. It makes me happier throughout the day and it helps me to realize more consistently how wonderful this life really is. I don’t want to just repeat those thankfuls but don’t be surprised if a few of them show up here as well.

Who wouldn’t be thankful for this little guy…IMG_1483

What are you thankful for lately?
I’m off to eat girl scout cookies and clean house!

Alfie Day

Alfred is almost 5 months old!

He is still just about the cutest little guy ever though.IMG_3829
Tricks he’s mastered: sit, down, touch, spin, roll over, wave. He also rings a bell to go outside and he hasn’t had an accident in our house since new years. Woohoo!IMG_3802

Our favorite Alfie traits: the ears, when he sneezes he lets out a really big grin right before, he sleeps on his back with his legs straight up in the air, when he’s tired he looks confused and excited all at the same time, when I get home he lays on him back until I pick him up and snuggle him, when Mike gets home he runs around in circles until Mike gets down on the floor to play with him, and his tiny little nubbin tail wags like crazy anytime Mike and I are around.IMG_3813IMG_3818IMG_2832

Also, can’t believe how much he’s changed. This is him at 2 months.

We still love our little guy (if you couldn’t tell)…

See you soon,
The Jaderstons
