A Summer of Memories and Milestones!

Happy September!

I honestly can't believe it's all ready nearing the end of summer. I also can't believe that I can officially say that my daughter is turning 1 NEXT MONTH! I really need to start on her birthday decorations and experiment with a practice "smash cake" before the big day. So much to do this month.

Since summer is coming to an end soon, I thought I would share some of our experiences from the past 4 1/2 months! It was so fun to enjoy Eisley's first summer (outside of the womb)! Granted a lot of it was HOT HOT HOT. There were many days back in June and July that the temperature was well over 100 degrees. But, we still enjoyed little family outings and letting her experience new things!

So here was our summer in pictures. Enjoy :)

It's definitely been a fun summer.

Eisley makes life so much happier. We couldn't be more blessed. I can't wait for fall and all the fun and holidays that come with it. It's my favorite time of year, and now we have a sweet little bean to share it with!
