Week 24 (June 18-June 24)

This has already been a busy week - lots of pictures to share! ((I STILL haven't figured out how to put the pictures with more than 1 per line))  I have been using my iphone to take the majority of my pictures these days, but looking at these pictures makes me realize I wished I would remember to use my "real" camera more often -- (haven't had time to edit any of these-- instagram is so much easier!)

 

 

Monday night we went to my mom's for dinner - my grandpa and Arliene were up from St. Cloud to visit everyone, and my Aunt Gwen was there too. So much fun to visit with everyone - it was only my grandpa's SECOND time meeting Chase - a perfect night for him to start learning to walk! Mason learned to walk using the exact same "walker" - push along, go too fast, fall down, repeat....

Tuesday night was my work picnic - Mason got to see the inside of "mommy's courthouse." He kept asking me where the play room was. Sadly, I dont have one! He then told me he was going to work at "Daddy's national guard office when I grow bigger and bigger." Hmm... wonder if there's a play room there that I don't know about??? :)

Last night my friend Stacy stopped by with her son's new puppy -- Mason was in LOVE. Chase wasn't too sure... the puppy wasn't too sure either!

Tonight my brother is coming over to watch the boys so I can to go Bobby's softball game! So excited to go as I haven't been able to go yet this year! And what a BEAUTIFUL evening - I hope the rain stays away -

Tomorrow is Friday - hurray! I'm going to try to leave work a little early to take the boys to the pool - it is always so nice during the week and rainy on the weekends - I think that this weekend might be our only "free" weekend in quite a while and FOR quite a while.

Hoping to do nothing but RELAX in the SUN!

Oh how I love the business and go-go-go of summer!

Week 23 (June 11-June 17)

Week 22 (June 4th - June 10th)

week 21 (May 27- June 3)

I have been loving my blogger app on my phone.. makes it so easy to post pictures, but a little harder to actually write.

I can't believe JUNE is already here. Summer here we come!!! Bobby has started softball - we NEED to go see one of his games - maybe this Thurs. if it is nice...

This week started out with some sad news... Bobby's grandma Hilda passed away, at the age of 99 and 3/4... She would have turned 100 on August 4th. While it is comforting to know she lived such a full, happy life, it is never easy to say good bye. Reminds us to never take our loved ones for granted - life should  never be too "busy" for family!  Her funeral was Wednesday, in Fargo.

Yesterday we had our very first garage sale! It was the city wide garage sale-day, so a perfect day to do it. My brother came and helped watch the kiddos. Got rid of a BUNCH of stuff we had packed away for YEARS and made a little money, but mostly it was just fun to do. Got to visit with so many people and it was such a beautiful day to be out in the sun!

Tonight I got caught up on making some picture frames for Chase, which I have been meaning to do for so long -  It is crazy looking back at his newborn pictures and realizing he is already going to be TEN months old this month.

Time for bed -- full week of work ahead!

Week 20 (may 21-may 27)

Chase's new trick he learned at daycare Monday -- Amanda said he kept switching hands, laughing!

Mason loves putting together puzzles -- we usually can only do them when Chase is asleep, otherwise pieces disappear!

Mason loves his movies too!

Crock pot dinners - yum yum

We are learning to use a sippy cup... mostly we just chew on it

My new *work* bag that my co-worker Marion made from "scratch" -- she is so super talented! ((and she takes custom orders!)) This was acutally supposed to be a graduation gift but I liked it so much I kept it for myself!  

Guess who is pulling himself UP UP UP??? He is so PROUD of himself when he stands up all on his own. Before we know it, we will have a walker!

Friday we took off work a little early and hit up some garage sales in Grand Forks. After that, we went out to the AFB to do some FAMILY grocery shopping. Bobby is usually the one who always buys our groceries, but I miss shopping together, so when we can go together it is kind of a treat!  Mason was wore out by the end of the day..

Week 19-- May 14 - May 20

Big race weekend for me on Saturday!! As of Monday, I'm nervous!! Going to run the 10k w my friend Jill...

Tuesday Chase had his NINE month checkup! I cannot believe how big he is getting oh so fast!! ((and I forgot my camera of course)). He is growing growing growing! 90th percentile height, 50th percentile weight.

Thursday BOTH boys had a dentist appt-- our dentist office in Warren is so great-- so patient, let mason look all around the office before going back to get his teeth cleaned. Chase is cutting 4 teeth on the top, so far only his far right tooth is popping-- not one of his front teeth but the one next to... No cavity creeps!!

Saturday morning I got up at 4AM to go run the 10K in Fargo with my friend Jill -- so much fun! So sore the next day but so worth it!!! We both finished under an hour which was our goal-- thinking of doing the half next year-- we will see!!! Bobby bought me a sweet card to congratulate me :) so thoughtful :)

Sunday after church we went to Grand Forks-- my cousin Sarah had a baby shower; chase and I went to the shower and Bobby and Mase went to the mall-- chase was loving being the only boy (and baby) at the shower. Laying in the middle of the floor just hamming it up! Busy weekend-- so fun but makes the time go too fast!!

Week 16-- April 23 to April 29

Well Bobby is now officially MASTER SERGEANT BUZICK!!! Words cannot even express how incredibly proud I am of him. I'm still learning about how the military works (5 years later!) but I do know what a "big deal" this is! Especially because this was his first year even eligible for promotion... It finally seems as if all of his late nights, being stressed out about being behind, always giving 110% has now been worth it. I am so confident that he is going to be a fantastic leader!!! We had oh so much fun at their social following! So glad my mom watched our boys!! :)

Friday night we went out and celebrated my grandpas birthday, and went over to my grandmas following for pie and coffee Everytime we go there, Mason sits on grandpas lap to read either the "Three Little Pigs" or "A fish out of water"
