Life by Design

Life lately has been notably slow. Especially as we round out week seven of staying home during the COVID-19 pandemic. But we're making the most of the good weather and sunshine and eating... everything!

With more speed than coordination, Henry's giant Tonka truck is now an outside only toy, the Alison Roman Salted Butter and Chocolate Chunk Shortbread lasted just a few days, we had our inaugural dinner outside on our new Hay outdoor furniture (hooray and on sale!) and Woodley and Henry's relationship continues to grow. As the newly appointed nanny, some days are better than others for our old dog but there's no denying he loves our little boy.

Now how's it shakin' over there?! You hanging in?

BLUE hydrangeas

The Hubs hung this framed abstract calendar page to continue the celebration of Henry

Mosquito season is here, which means our hydrangea beuts are heading indoors

Our youngest member of the family is officially TWO MONTHS (!!!)

Life lately has included heaps of hydrangeas and M-I-L-K (or as the Hubs calls it, "boob gold")! I've frankly been shocked and awed by the production of both these items. The silver-lining to all our May showers? Our hydrangeas have been growing gangbusters and are BLUE! You guys! We planted these bushes six years ago but after the first year, the flowers turned Pepto-Bismal pink. I've been battling ever since to get back my blue beauties by adding supplements to the dirt, burying a rusty nail (a total Pinterest fail) and reading up on gardening. And then this year... nothing, I did NADA and now our hydrangeas are blue AND bigger and better than ever!

While the hydrangeas have been growing, Henry too has been gaining on the charts. We celebrated two months this week and all the giggles, smiles and poo that goes with it! It's also a FACT that at our two month wellness appointment, our pediatrician was blown away by the volume of my milk production and my Hubs (completely fascinated by my new skill) glowed with PRIDE. 

On a final note... We love this little boy beyond and keep hoping time will slow down but our dude keeps on sprouting! Don't want to miss a a beat? Follow our Instagram stories to see what trouble little H and I are getting into on the daily!
