back to school favorites 2020

July 28, 2020

During this pandemic, being a parent with school aged children is hard. Nothing seems like the right choice. Our kids are going into exciting years. McKenzie and Kasey are entering middle school – a new building, different type of schedule, new independence and responsibility. Harper and Mason are entering preschool – STARTING SCHOOL FOR THE FIRST TIME!! These are such big years for our kids and my heart is breaking that its not going to be the experience they deserve. My heart hurts for ALL kids.

Every year I’ve been trying to remember to take my own photos for the kids around their birthdays. This way I save money on a photographer! For their four year old photos, we walked around our little town and snapped some shots. I thought they turned out super cute!

dino-four fourth birthday party

June 22, 2020

We are at the fourth year!! I’ve been thinking about a “Dino-four” birthday since they were about two. I saw it on Pinterest and loved how catchy and gender neutral it was. So, it has stuck with me all these years. Harper and Mason are getting SO big! Harper is growing a lot faster than Mason but I think that’s pretty normal for boy/girl growth. They are starting to talk more “kidish” and not so “toddlerish”, if that makes sense. Speaking full sentences that actually make since, using bigger words, etc. It makes me sad because the toddler voices and words are my absolute favorite part of toddlerhood. Like why can’t Mason say “toodles” instead of tools forever?! Or Harper say, “can me go there?”. Ugh. Please stop growing kids.

As I am deep into planning Harper and Mason’s fourth birthday party, I realized I never blogged from their birthday last year! I did vlog it, but I usually like to share photos/comments on here too. My blog serves as a memory book for me – so I can’t believe I never added it.
