The other day I was in a store and they had all their Fall decorations out and I about fell over… How is summer already almost over?! This summer has definitely been different than in the past but I’ve still loved it all the same. It has seriously been SO hot in Utah so having a little newborn can be nervewracking at times… I am constantly worried she might be too hot! But she loves the pool so 🙌🏼

Here are some things we have been up to lately.

I finally mailed all of our baby’s baby invitations out! We used Artifact Uprising and I couldn’t be happier with how they turned out.

I am trying to exercise 4-5 times a week but running is just not cutting it for me anymore. MY BODY DOES NOT MOVE LIKE THAT ANYMORE. It’s the weirdest thing. I am hoping one day I am able to run again but for now my walks will do ☺️Because that way I can slow down and really admire the pretty houses. This home is a new one in Holladay by The Fox Group.

Our daughter is growing up every single hour I swear. Every time I grab her out of her crib she’s bigger. She is generally a pretty happy baby and I feel so lucky she’s ours. She REFUSES to take a bottle or a binky so we are trying to work through that right now but I’m sure we’ll figure it out! Right now we are practically glued to the hip at all times and I can’t be too mad about that.

We’ve had a lot of friends come into town for weddings and what not which has been so much fun too. Why do friends have to move away?! I think it should be against the law 😉

On Sunday we drove up to see the wildflowers and they were absolutely incredible! They are blooming right in Albion Basin and I’m so confused as to why I’ve never been up there to see them before. There are still so many things in Utah I’m aching to see. Including the arch and the salt flats… I know I know, I need to get on it!

It’s Pioneer Day and most companies take the day off of work which is amazing. We went up to Bear Lake again just for a night but being there is seriously my favorite thing on earth. On the drive home I seriously told Will I’d rather buy a boat than a house 😂I mean… maybe we could live on the boat, right?!

I’m still working full-time and trying to soak up my days as a mom. Some days are better than others and trust me, some days are really hard. But at the same time, I feel so grateful to have our daughter. Being her mom is the biggest blessing in my life!

Tonight we are going up to Deer Valley for a concert and tomorrow we have a going away party for my little brother Jensen. He is leaving on his mission so soon and I am already prepping for all the tears that will ensue over these next couple weeks. Here’s to soaking up these next couple days all together as a family!
