What simple pleasures did you find today?
Sorry I’ve been a little MIA this week. We’ve been busy introducing Adele to her grandparents! It’s been so fun having my parents in town. I know they are just so in love. ![]()
I’ll be back later next week with a ton of new pictures, stories and updates. I’m just living in the moment and soaking it all in this week. (Plus, think of all the things I can get done this week with two extra sets of hands!!!) ![]()
My favorite time of the day is when we unswaddle Adele after a nap. She loves to stretch out and I just think it’s the cutest thing to watch. I’ll have to capture it on video soon.
Yesterday morning, Irving and I packed up the stroller and walked down to the park for a few hours. The weather was perfect… blue skies with a cool breeze. We left as soon as Adele finished eating so that she would nap as much as possible. ![]()
We laid out two blankets, stretched out, and enjoyed the time as a family of three. Adele loved hearing the older kids running around, seeing the squirrels jumping across the grass, and feeling the breeze on her face. ![]()
Stretch, Adele, stretch! She’s so cute, we can hardly believe she is ours! ![]()
I have dreamt about this day for a long time. The day where I could pack up my family and enjoy a lazy morning outside. I am so excited that it’s here. I love my little family so much. This is what it’s all about. ![]()
We brought a picnic lunch and read stories. ![]()
Irving read some magazines, and I wrote in my journal (I’ve been keeping a journal for Adele. Hopefully she’ll want to read it someday!). ![]()
There is nothing more magical than seeing a baby snoozin’ under the shade of a big tree. Perfection. ![]()
I can’t wait to do this again soon! Someday she’ll be able to run with the other kids…. slide down the slide, play in the sand, climb up the ladders… But for now, I’m enjoying her like this. There will be plenty of time for that later. ![]()
During the 10 months Adele was in my belly, she visited a lot of places! Before she was even born, she bounced all over the country!
