Oh my GOODNESS is it hot here already, or what? Is it really in the 100's already?! This pregnant lady just can't take too much of the heat. Our little one doesn't seem to mind it though!
Almost every morning after Jillian feeds Austin outside, she turns around and says 'Bye-Bye, play self' and runs off into the backyard. She is getting so independent! She and Austin will run circles around each other and keep themselves quite entertained for usually 20 minutes. I get to sit inside and watch the 2 of them through the patio doors and drink my coffee and catch up on the morning news..... Ahhhhh!
However, once the afternoon hits, it's blazing hot. Most afternoons we will still spend about 30-45 minutes outside right before dinner. Hosing ourselves off is key. So we water the plants, spray Austin, stick to the shade, and often times our next door neighbors kids pop over!
Here's a few pictures of Jillian just drenching herself and LOVING it:
Her favorite way to be - NAKED! All the time. Without question. She asks me probably 30x a day if she can get naked. After the drenching her diaper was really soggy, so I asked if she wanted to be half-naked and run around. This got a 'YES!' and many claps. I had to snap a photo of that precious little tushy.
Another way we are beating the heat is with the new easel Nana and Papa gave her for her birthday! They gave it to her a few weeks early, and it has been a life saver! She is quite obsessed with it! She loves to draw circles and show us. And lets be honest, that's about the only thing she can draw right now. She loves the eraser (erasee!).
Thank you again Nana and Papa for such a perfect gift!!
