June's Awkward and Awesome

Awkward

  • Baby grunts.
  • Waking up at 2am to feed baby and literally falling asleep while walking to her crib and face planting right into her as I try and wake-up and gain enough composure to pick her up without dropping her. #dangerous!
  • The number of times we've ate Krispy Kreme doughnuts recently. Not to mention the quantity of doughnuts consumed each time...
  • The online AutoCAD class I have to take this summer. Homework? Ugh!
  • Trying to teach relief society when I got maybe 3 hours of sleep the night before.


Awesome


Jude, my sweet new nephew

  • Congratulating Jeff and Hilary on their wedding day and gaining this kiddo as my new nephew! 
  • All the baby smiles.
  • When people love to hold Little A and make adorable faces at her. Or rock her to sleep :)
  • Father's Day + Anniversary 
  • Seeing all the cousins cuddled up on the couch together this morning.

  • The time I slept 5 consecutive hours + 3 consecutive hours. What beautiful sleep.
  • My garden peas.
  • This hilarious face

Summer bliss

Babies are blissful.
I could have 10 of these little things.

We are having the best summer of our lives. 




We are learning to smile.



We hang out at the park with family.



We spend endless hours at Hayward Field watching the Track & Field Olympic Trials.



We chill in the backyard and stare at the growing garden.

Sometimes we stay in bed until 2pm.



and then we nap. ALL. DAY. LONG.

Best of days

     No comments


TODAY I've been married to my best friend for 6 years. 
We've shared so many fun. exciting. adventurous. and even straight boring times together. 
By far these moments were the best of the whole six. (well...nearly 10, if you count dating, which I do!)


I know without a doubt that I will spend the rest of my life and all eternity with this guy.
It's the best knowing that we'll always be together.

My Dad came to visit Amelia this weekend. 
What a cool grandpa Amelia has! (Her other grandpa is pretty rockin' too!)



So we played hookey at church and went to the park to throw boomerangs. Because what else do cool people do when they skip out on church??

Of course we ended up getting the boomerang stuck in the tree! Can you see it?

I love how my dad immediately took off his shoe and started throwing it WAY up into the tree.

 We eventually got it down....

Anyways, what a beautiful day celebrating family!

Even Lily enjoyed the walk to the park (she got her ball thrown plenty too!)

1 month

Can you believe this beauty is 1 month old already?

I'm freaking out.

How has a whole month gone by already?

I'm quickly realizing that I need to enjoy every second of this sweet girl, because she'll never be so tiny and new again!

We've been having such wonderful lazy days over here. Amelia is awake slightly more and we've got a somewhat consistent schedule going... consistent as in she dictates what we do each day. :) most of the time it's eating or napping or playing the what-are-you-fussying-about-game. Fun stuff. We love it. Way better than teaching teenagers about the periodic table :)

Although I could use some more sleep.
