In a Nutshell

We've been crazy busy.  With what?  Not exactly sure but it seems that our weeks go by quickly and the weekends even faster. Our life is sort of like a well oiled machine.  I say sort of, because of course we have hiccups and bumps along the way but you could pretty much press START and you'd see the same thing go on week, after week, after week.  Monday through Friday are school, work, homework, dinner, bath time  story time  bedtime, x5.  Weekend nights we enjoy movie nights with the boys because those are "Stay home days" as the Reagan & Camp like to refer to them.  Then Saturday & Sunday are spent running errands, planning our menu for the week, grocery shopping, having fun with our friends and spending as much quality time with the boys that we can possibly squeeze in.  Then repeat. Hence, why most of my updates have been via facebook and instagram and not here.  I love documenting what we've been up to here, since I haven't kept up on scrapbooking the old fashioned way!  But maybe this is my new scrapbook, and in that case, then I'm not doing too shabby.

Kai took the boys to Barnes & Noble to pick out some new books while I was getting my haircut.  Reagan told Kai he needed some privacy while searching for a new book.  Really?  Privacy.  Where does this kid get these things from? 

Afterwards we enjoyed some yummy bagels at Bethesda Bagels.  

We enjoyed a dinner out with my nephew Nick before he headed back to school at Northwestern.  Sad that this is the only pic that I got, but Reagan was soooooo excited to share his Pokemon book & poster with Nick.  You see Nick was of the first generation of Pokemon lovers.  He was really into Pokemon as a kid.  Reagan also says he wants to become a connoisseur

of Pokemon!  Seriously...I need to start keeping a log of things that come out of their mouths!   

We had to represent our love for the Seahawks by flying our 12th Man flag all week leading up to the Redskins vs Seahawks game.  I was a little nervous our Redskins neighbors may not appreciate our gesture. They keep their flag flying all year long! 

We had friends over to watch the game with us.  We were happy with the outcome, but sadly our Redskins friends were not.   

Even Isabella enjoyed a bit of the game. 

Keith and Erin sent the boys some new Seattle Sounders glasses, which they love!  If you recall they also got Reagan & Camp these glasses last summer. 

Thanks Erin & Keith! 

The boys were invited to a classmates birthday at the pool.  We may have Camp's birthday there too since he hasn't stopped talking about it. 

We took a long walk in the cold to Great Falls.  It was so nice to get out and hike around the trails even though it was a bit chilly! 

I had the day off & Reagan wanted to go to school so off to the city we went to see Daddy for lunch.  Camp watched the town fly by and picked out all the trucks, diggers, bulldozers and cranes he saw along the way.  

Camp picked our lunch spot, Yo Sushi.  He wanted tomago and a Japanese soda with the ball in it.  

This boy is super serious about his tomago.  The waitress is always taken back when placing our order because this little guy can put away a lot of tomago! 

FINALLY!  We got some snow.  At least it was enough for us to put on our snow clothes and go out to play!  I bought the boys boots last year & it never snowed.  I didn't buy them boots this year in hopes we would get more snow this year, than last.  Thankfully Camp wore some hand me downs and Reagan's still fit from last year.  I'm hoping my reverse psychology will work and we'll get get more snow!    

Our neighbor Bella found us playing at the park and hopped on the sled with Reagan!

 Thankfully we got a 2 hour delay due to freezing rain after our very busy weekend so we could rest and ease back into the week.  Reagan had his first and hopefully last sleepwalking episode that left me laughing so hard my body shook.  I didn't dare make a peep as I didn't want him to know I was laughing at him.  Let's just say, I'm glad he still had his pajamas on as I found him staring at the wall, while he thought he was standing at the toilet!        

In a nutshell...it's what we've been up to!
