I always thought a baby would be harder to wash than a dog… boy was I wrong! This little lady is the wiggliest fighter when it comes to bath time. We have to physically get in the tub with her or she won’t cooperate. It’s always a party, let me tell you.

A few weeks ago I was lucky enough to spend the day at the brand new Villas Fashion Island apartments. We were wined and dined by True Food Kitchen, enjoyed a tour of the beautiful grounds, had a special fashion presentation by Fashion Island and ended the day relaxing by one of their gorgeous pools. It was pretty amazing.

Summer isn’t really winding down around here… our hottest months are usually September and October. Even though we still have awhile before we’ll be breaking out the boots and jackets, I wanted to end the week by sharing some of my favorite summer finds. These are by no means limited to warm weather, just the little things I’ve been loving this season.

When there’s a heatwave in the summer, the only place I want to be is in a body of water. Or next to one with an ice cold glass of rosé (side note, has anyone tried frozé yet??). Or even better yet, combine the two and hop on a floatie.

May/June is a crazy time for us between our Birthdays, Anniversary, Mother’s Day and Father’s Day. Since this year it’s Jeff’s first Father’s Day I knew I wanted to do something special for him. One problem… he never wants anything and since his Birthday was just two weeks ago I was a little stuck. Then I started thinking a little outside the box, we’d done a few spa days in the past and he always seemed to enjoy them. Now that we’re new parents who didn’t really sleep for the first month, plus he works full time and never really stops to relax, I thought a massage would be the best gift I could give him.

I’m struggling to get myself into a routine with Crosby. I base our days off of her feeding schedule but it changes daily depending on what time she wakes up for the day. Lately it’s anywhere between 6 and 8 am which means I sleep until then too. Before baby I woke up at 5 am every day for work so this is kind of unlike me. I think I’m going to try to start getting up at a set time each day even if she’s not awake to get stuff done. Any moms have any tips or advice?

But anyway, I wanted to share some instagram pictures from the past month. Lots of baby and spring fun. Looking forward to the summer months ahead! Just a reminder, you can always shop these via the ‘Shop My Instagram’ tab on the top of this page.
