New recipe tonight! Spicy California Shrimp Stacks from Skinnytaste. Seriously delicious! Tastes like a fresh deconstructed California roll and it was absurdly easy to make. Yes!! http://www.skinnytaste.com/2015/10/spicy-california-shrimp-stack.html?m=1

You're welcome.

Few things in life are better than watching my parents in their element as Grandparents. Jack and Max are the luckiest 😊

Max is the best snuggler.

Easily at 2ft and the heaviest snow is currently coming down. Back to school by February? ❄️😜❄️

And more to come...

Our yearly trip to the Udvar Hazy Smithsonian. The boys were so well behaved and they humored me with recreating my absolute favorite picture. My boys, walking towards space shuttle Discovery. Top left 2016, top right 2015, bottom right 2014, bottom left 2013.

Max would like to read you a book 😊

We took advantage of our FONZ membership today and got to see Bei Bei, the baby panda. The cool, misty weather kept the crowds at bay and the boys were on their best behavior. Bei Bei was asleep, but an adorable ball of fur, nonetheless. They each chose to spend some Christmas money on a new panda. Great start to the weekend!

Ugh...

Dan and I went to an Argentinian Steak House last night that was really good...until about an hour after getting home. I've never had food poisoning before, but good lord I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. If you need me, I'll be huddled on the couch with saltines and water.

Excuse the terrible blurry pic, but I had to share my little guy. He had another food allergy scare last night that sent us to the ER for over 3 hours. We *think* we are adding pineapple to his (growing) list of allergens. He presented in his typical fashion with an immediate rash, panicked scratching, and then vomiting. This was a much quicker reaction, but fortunately no breathing/airway issues. The ER showed very little urgency for our poor guy, which was disconcerting, to say the least, but he really seemed to feel so much better after getting the offending fruit out of his system. We were in Maryland, celebrating NYE with our best friends and they sprang into action getting us what we needed, cleaning up the mess (eww), and taking care of Jack while we raced to the hospital. Benadryl and a steroid were given and we were eventually released whereupon Max immediately fell asleep. This morning he slept on me for over 2 hours and seems to be back to his usual self. Following up with his doc this week. Being the parent of a child with food allergies is completely terrifying, but I am so thankful for my husband and amazing friends for helping me remain as calm as possible to get Max what he needed. My New Year’s Resolution? No more trips to the ER.

Day 1. Thanks to my sweet mother in law for my new journal. With interesting prompts, and a short entry space, I think I might have a shot at sticking with this one!

Initially I was only mildly annoyed that Jack's set of Star Wars figures didn't include Rey. After seeing the movie I am furious! She's the main character!? Apparently I'm not alone.

The Force Awakens!! Finally 😊

Merry Christmas Tumblr friends! Our morning started at 5:30 with ridiculously excited boys and seemingly endless presents. Hope everyone is having a wonderful, family-filled day. *I recommend champagne before 8 everyday.

Jack's reaction to his collection of Star Wars figures. 😂
