My Framily

Nope, that is not a typo (though I know these posts can be full of them... proofreading is not my strong point...feel free to comment any typos you find)  It's just a stolen word from Sprint's new ads about Framily Plans.

But it got me thinking how lucky we are to have such good Framily in Hutch with our families too far of a drive away to help watch Declan on a whim and swing in for dinner.  Plus, Declan most likely won't be having cousins anytime soon, so I love that he has friends his age close by.  You know... because an almost 8 month-old totally need friends.  Or shall I make the new word frousins... or cousiends... Ok, I'll stop attemping humor and just put up the cute pics of Dec and friends.

Major positives of two more cold days... visits from Malorie, Noah and Cameron (who I sadly forgot to get pics with, but Bailey loving on Croix will have to do :) )   Their parents all came too... adult time was great!  











Andy has been off shift work for a few weeks now, but for the past year and half, I was so grateful to be invited to Sarah and Dave's house for dinners and walks and playtime whenever Andy was on afternoons and I was lonely by Wednesday.    Dave is still on shifts so I'm trying to pay Sarah back for all the meals they fed me.  Her and the boys have been over a couple times so far this year, but I hope to get them over a lot more.  As hard as shift work was on me with one baby, she has 2.5 kiddos and is inspirational!   I couldn't be more thankful for her friendship and our conversations on life, love and advice on anything baby ;)


Declan and Daddy on Dad's Birthday


This past weekend = more Framily time!  We got to celebrate Andy's 31st birthday with our Schwedler Framily and my first Andie and Jesse.  While Andie and Jesse graciously watched Declan before dinner, we went to Cabaret (and though this blog is not a review for theater I have to prepare others... the show was very well done, I'm so glad we saw it,  but don't go to the show to be uplifted... I knew nothing of the storyline and was caught off guard.. I'm leaving it at that...)  


I got in trouble for taking this picture... 


Sunday, Schwedler's came over for brats, AMAZING cake from Costco that I may just get a membership to buy that cake from, playing with golf and there may have been some football game on in the background too...  Eli held Declan before bed practicing his future big brother skills!
