Summertime & Bloglovin'

What an amazing summer we are having in Seattle this year!! Totally loving all the gorgeous sunshine, and Harper has been trying to keep cool with popsicles and pools.

 

Summer also means that I will have some time to catch up on the blog, Harper's baby book, plan a 1st birthday party (how did that happen so fast?), run summer camps, eat cleaner, exercise more (hello 30 day shred), and enjoy extra time with my hubby and baby. Sounds busy doesn't it? Team Winters knows how to do summer!

 

I'm currently making the switch to Bloglovin', so feel free to follow me through it. I promise to have more posts of my sweet little baby, life with Team Winters, some recipes, book reviews, and more. Whew! Sounds like I may have added to my summertime "to do" list!



Harper's first 4th of July!

The Fourth of July is one of my most fave holidays (well, let's be honest - I do heart all holidays): fireworks, adult beverages, time with family + friends, street meat, and so much more! Plus, this was baby girl's first Fourth, so we just had to go all out.

Jesse and I were both able to take the next day off, so we really lived it up. Themed breakfast of pancakes, watermelon, and blueberries for baby girl. Followed by some relaxing family time, then Jesse went over to our friend Winston's for the annual friend fireworks extravaganza!

Harps and I headed over to Bellevue with my awesome mom-in-law and sister-in-law, Jules. We did a little shopping, ate some yummy Red Robin (what's more American than Red Robin?), then headed over to the big Bellevue Family Fourth in the park.

 

Not only did Harps stay up to watch the fireworks (which she LOVED), but she even got to eat one of my most favorite treats - an elephant ear (thanks for standing in that long line ladies).

It was an amazing day, that we all paid for the next day since Harps was a crank pot for staying up so late. But, totally worth it!
