Evan's Turns 2!!

We had a fun time celebrating our little man turning 2 years old!!

He was lucky to have Gangy, and Grandma/Grandpa Fetrow in town to celebrate!

We had planned on going to the Zoo to ride the train, but the weather was not cooperating, so we went to OMSI instead and had our very first visit there. The kids had a great time playing around and exploring. After that, we headed home for dinner, cake and presents! He was a very happy boy!

On that Saturday, we celebrated his birthday with all of our close friends at Metzger Park- with Nemo being the theme! Evan LOVED it and so did the rest of the kids! We had fun playing around, blowing bubbles and swinging.

Evan is our little sweetheart. We are amazed by him every day. He can do so much for his age and is very smart- thanks to his big Sis for showing him the ropes!

So, happy 2^nd Birthday to our sweet, adorable little boy!! I can’t imagine our family without you in it!! 

Trip to Medford

We went down to Medford on Memorial Day weekend to visit our family.
So excited to see my grandparents and just have a nice visit home!
Spent time with GG/Papa, Gangy and Grandma and Grandpa Fetrow!

Mother's Day

I had THE BEST Mother’s Day this year! It was sooo fun because both Evan and Sage were into it and got really involved in the whole day.

I was able to “sleep in” and heard them stomping up the stairs ready to deliver my surprise breakfast in bed. Truth be told- this is my absolute favorite part of our Mother’s day tradition. I love watching them walk/run into the room, cards in hand and hearing them say ‘Happy Mother’s Day’ that they rehearsed so well.

I love watching them struggle to climb up onto the bed and crawl over to me as they tell me what it is exactly that I’ll be eating for breakfast. But the best part this year was hearing Sage say “Happy Mother’s Day” followed by Evan “Hipet Ters Daaaaay” in their cute little innocent toddler voices. I hold onto that memory, knowing that there might be a Mother’s Day they’ll forget or be less enthused about. I like to think that would never happen!!

They each hand me a card- which are all homemade and listen to Sage as she described each picture and her “cool” hand print. While Evan is babbling away waving his card in my face, trying to copy all that Sage is doing!

Then come the presents!! Of course, I had help to open them. As requested, Brad got me rings with Evan and Sage’s initials. I LOVE THEM!!!

And he got me new sneakers!!

Then- I was by myself to enjoy the quiet, watch a TV show and eat my breakfast!!

We spent the day together- playing in the backyard and relaxing! I was able to run a few errands for ME all by myself while the kids napped and then came my second favorite part of the day- DINNER!!! I had put in a request for flank steak, but it was denied by something so much better- ABBY’S PIZZA!!! This was seriously the best surprise Brad did. He arranged for Abby’s pizza to be delivered as close as they could drive and also got me Red Robin fries. It was the best tasting pizza and fries I’ve had all year!!!

It was a perfect day- all thanks to Brad. He did everything- cleaned up, took care of the kids and let me just relax and enjoy the day! 

It was my most favorite day of this year ;)
