Fall Days

Our Cozy Sleepyhead

Sometimes I realize that I haven't even stepped outside for days. I love being a mom and taking care of Clara, but it can be a bit seclusive sometimes. The other day Jordan and I decided to take her to the park. Obviously she couldn't run around and play, but it was an absolutely beautifully cold day, and I couldn't stand staying inside one minute longer. The funny thing about me is that I literally hibernate in the summer months, I can't stand the intense heat, and I pretty much just stay inside where it is cool for the whole summer (unless it involves going to the beach). But then when fall and winter roll around I am itching to get out and enjoy the cool weather. With me the colder the better. I just love sweaters, blankets, hot beverages, baking and all the other wonderful things that come along with cool weather. It is just so cozy!


In other news, we are getting ready for a big trip coming up next week. We are flying to Minnesota for a family wedding and reunion, and then immediately after we are flying to Salt Lake City for a friends wedding. I am definitely a little nervous about flying and traveling with a newborn. She is a great baby most of the time, but she has her moments, and when she cries it can be extremely loud and piercing. The trip should be fun and I am praying it all goes smoothly!

Look at those chubby cheeks! We are going to miss her (and you guys, of course) so much while you are gone.
