We have had a bit of a ‘normal’ week. We are close to completing our financing for the a house. We put an offer in and had it accepted for 275 Oak Manor Dr in Oshkosh. We are excited for our June 25th closing date…..there is a chance for it to be earlier if the […]
This past Monday classes started at UWO and both Matt & I are in full swing with our jobs again. We have found that it is even more important for us to stay aware of each other’s schedules now that we have two kids. I was a bit worried about the pick up and drop […]
Today is the last day of my maternity leave. I look around our apartment & realize that the time ‘off’ did not result in a super organized or clean living environment. It did not result in me having dinner ready each night (Matt does most of the cooking). I have taken 10 weeks off of […]
George has started his tenure in the 3 year old room. His first day went well and we are hopeful that this continues! He did however jump into a huge puddle of water & get drenched…but I know some adults that couldn’t resist the urge either. George has been having a tough time staying in […]
The boys have mastered some new things in the past week. George has started taking swim lessons and just this week put his head under the water. Remember that milestone? Remembering to close your mouth, eyes & nose all at the same time? He loves the water and the time with his papa in the […]
Time for an update. It was pointed out that we have done little to introduce you all to our expected arrival in November. I suppose we have been so busy just taking care of George that it hasn’t slipped out minds, but instead fallen from the top of the list. I am currently 33 weeks […]
These are a few of George’s favorite things. He is now 16 months & likes to be outside to dig around to find rocks, watch bubbles (if you do all the work) and eat berries. It is fun to see him try to work with forks and spoons as he eats before he gives in […]
George turned 1 on March 15th…we celebrated with a small party featuring our own little Curious George. The past month has been a busy one…G has had lots of firsts. He had his first plane ride (he did really well) to Vermont to visit the Grant Family, his first trip to the Emergency Room (while […]
George had a wonderful 1st Christmas. Thank you to all the friends & family that made it so memorable. Our family started our Christmas adventure with the Kratzke Christmas at the La Quinta Hotel in Appleton. George did great in a room filled to the brim with family…and also had his first swim in a […]
We have survived the first two weeks with George at home. He was a bit fussy the first couple of days, but overall is a wonderful baby. We are working to adjust our schedules to his seeing he still has his nights & days mixed up…which is getting better…but not quite figured out yet. He […]
