Binging home Summer


Summer came home when she was just one day old and was welcomed by not only her brother, sister and Nanny- but her cousins Teya and Harper and her Aunt Steph, Aunt Tawny and Uncle Phil and Uncle Dave!!! It was a full house for about a week and I am so grateful to have such a wonderful family who love each other so much. Chloe, Teya and Ezra played so well together and were outside in the backyard for about 10 hours a day making mud pies, swimming in the tiny pool and just being cute little summer kids. We had big family dinners almost every night and mum cooked the most wonderful dinners night after night. Summer's first outing was going down the street to Il Torrito restaurant and it was a major success! The kids surprised us by being really good and Summer slept the entire time in her car seat. It was so nice to get to know Harper after watching her grow on Steph's blog. She had a cold though, so I was a little weary about getting to close as I am paranoid of summer getting sick. Mum sent Steph and I shopping to Forever 21 with $100 each and were instructed to only buy things for ourselves- not our babies. I had Summer and Steph had Harper and it made me wish that we lived closer so that we could do things together all the time. It's now back to being just us and Mum and the house feels very quiet, but i'm sure that will change the second Chloe and Ezra wake up tomorrow.

Summer's squished baby face is so cute. You and your sister hold babies the same, it's cute.
