Shame on me — I’m a bad, bad, blogger! I’ve been doing a fairly decent job of getting lots of sleep + snuggling my babies. So basially I had the best excuses ever.
Oh, and I worked — a LOT.
But here are the exciting parts of our week, as told by pictures:
[a trip to the akron zoo to see the ‘fla-mangoes!’]
[visited the new local craft brewery, HiHo]
[ari’s first t-ball practice]
[a pizza birthday party with friends]
[lots of playing]
[a teensy bit of work, a lot of coffee from akron coffee roasters]
[miss bea’s first taste of ice cream, courtesy of chill artisan ice cream]
Not pictured: A low-grade fever from one silly toddler; loads and loads of unfolded laundry; and lots of chaos. Like every week, our days were filled with lots of ups and even more downs. But I’m trying to keep on the brightside. And this upcoming week is no different. Well, it’s a little different because Ari is on Spring break — and that means I’m taking a little time off to do a few special things with the kiddos!
And here’s my Mantra for the week:
Love “flamangoes”. And amen to that mantra. Why is that such a struggle for us mamas and so hard for other people to understand? :/
I love the pics and the mantra.
What a fun way to share your week! I love the picture of your daughter eating ice cream! She looks so happy!
I’m in OH too and we were able to get out a bit this weekend. I am looking forward to warmer weather – with no rain! – so we can spend more time outside.
This is such a good idea, your week in pictures! Looks like it was such a good one too! Kids are precious 🙂
I am all for the craft brewery and the ice cream. Beer and ice cream, two of my favorite things! 😛
awwwwww what a fun week for the kiddos!
Looks like fun all around, minus the fever!
I’ve heard good things about HiHo! Did you like it? Should we go together sometime when I come home?!
What a fun week! ICE CREAM YUM!
Yes! I’ve been in that spot too! Love your mantra!
Looks like a great week! I’m totally wishing it was warm enough to go to the zoo here!
Looks like such a fun week! Ice cream is my fav! Cute kiddos
Great family shots and I love your motto. As mom, it’s so easy to get caught up in what everyone else needs instead of what is best for you.
Sounds like an amazing week!! Sometimes we need to switch it up!
Looks great to me, I love the zoo and craft breweries are fun too! Sorry about the fever though.
What a fun week! I’m loving being outside more now that the weather is warming up.
Your week looks like it was so much fun. It makes me think of all the great little moments I have that sometimes go overlooked. I should start doing something similar, even if I only keep it for family use. 🙂
Looks like you had a great week! We get to go to the zoo in a few weeks!

any week that includes pizza, the zoo and ice cream is a win in my book!
Oh I love this little glimpse into your week! I’m also a bad-bad blogger lately. Ha!
Looks like a fabulous week! I can’t wait to get to the zoo someday soon!
