Oh Southern Florida. I love you. I love you for the beaches, the nice weather year round, and the wonderful produce. I DO NOT love you for the God awful weather from hades in the summer.
It. is.so.hot.
The days of walking in our neighborhood around 10AM are long gone..by then the heat index is well over 100 degrees and I cannot have my babies overheating in the stroller or in my baby carrier. So we will stay inside until the evening time, when it's only 90 instead of 105.
Life is moving, and moving FAST! I cannot believe it's already July. They say time flies when you have children, but when you have more than one, man is that ever true. It makes me so sad sometimes, but so happy too. How can that make sense? ;) I cannot wait for Hogan to start playing with Winslow and for them to become built in best friends. Because they will never EVER fight, right? HA!
Winslow has started making Hogan laugh so much lately, I love it. He will get right in his face and say "Ah do do do do do" and Hogan just laughs and laughs! His little eyes light up and then Winslow is so proud that he was able to do that. Then Hogan will grab his hair or his face and W will say "Mommy! Hogan touched my face!"
We are getting lots of fresh mangos from our neighbors yard and have been making popsicles and mango sorbet. it's DELICIOUS. Fresh fruit straight from the ground is not even comparable to the store. Seth got me a fruit tree for Mother's Day and I have yet to pick it up. I can't decide which type I want!! I am leaning towards either a lemon or a tangelo tree. LEMONADE all summer would be amazing..but fresh tangelos are also the bomb.
Grilling out has also become a weekly thing here. We usually do chicken, grilled veggies and we did pizza last night on the grill! It's so easy and the taste of grilled food is out of this world. Also, we don't have to heat up the house with the oven.
The boys and I are making our first SOLO trip to Texas this month. I am a little hesitant about flying with two by myself, but it's a straight flight to Dallas so I think I will be okay. As long as I had the ipad and some snacks for Winslow and mommy's milk for Hogan. All will be right with the world ;) We are visiting my dad for a few days and then all heading to the lake in Arkansas. I can't wait- going to the lake growing up are some of my favorite memories ever.
As usual, here is a photo overload! I take SO many pictures and don't have the time to post them all! I am at Starbucks (with NO CHILDREN) right now (Thank you HONEY!!!) so I actually have time to sit and think without refilling sippies or playing police and keeping Winslow from throwing toys at Hogan's head. ;)
Heck, I may spend the night here.
