whoa. where the heck did this week go? it's all a fuzzy blur of holiday-summery-goodness. let's relive it, shall we?
spoil alert: something major happens on friday.
monday was the fourth of july & we celebrated in true parent style. sam wanted to do some yard work {go crazy!} so parker & i went for a run. don't feel bad for him, i cleaned the inside of the house beforehand. we're all about equal opportunity around here.
after the our house was all ship-shaped, we headed to a fourth of july festivus where we picnicked in the grass to eat bbq & frozen bananas. we found ourselves on an impromtu hike when we chose to take a "shortcut" back to the car so we could make it in time to our fro-yo place before they closed. we made it & it was delicious.
then parker slept through the sounds of WWIII while sam & i watched fireworks displays on tv. turns out watching fireworks on tv is actually awesome because you can rewind the finale & relive it. can't do that live, suckas.
tuesday started with a mini-hike & playdate with some of our besties. the weather was amazing & we had to be outside in it. then we headed to costco for some essentials {ie: razors, otter pops, & string cheese. you know, the staples.}
it was an all around good day. my little guy is so much fun to be around lately & i truly enjoy everyday we get to just hang out together. and side note on that last picture: i'm not that skinny. i promise there is more belly hiding behind parker's juicy thigh.
wednesday. if you follow me on instagram {which, if you have an iPhone you totally should... amy_agoodlife. find me & say hi!} you saw a similar picture posted, only it included abs. you guys? i'm feeling good. i'm feeling like i'm finally back on track in my health & fitness stuffs. look forward to some future wellness posts.
and bonus points if you noticed p-ray's cute little face poking up above the counter.
it was a gorgeous day. we spent lots of time out in the sun & even hit up some more fro-yo. yeah, we may have a slight addiction. once parker was in his pj's & ready for bed i took off for a girl's night. nothing like talk of diapers & boob size fluctuations over some half price apps to make you realize you're not alone in this crazy thing called motherhood.
i was stuck in some construction on the way to work & decided to commemorate a good-hair-day by waving "good morning" to my instagram friends {seriously, are you on instagram yet? you should be, it's pretty much my favorite ap.} we had a picnic potluck at work & i provided the green salad. i'm telling you guys, i'm being super healthy.
back at home parker played all day with the babysitter & did cute things like get gobs of food in his hair while signing "all-done!" it's so cute i don't even care about the sticky hairs.
thursday night consisted of a campfire, s'mores, & a ridiculously cute sleeping baby. 'nuff said.
friday morning parker had plenty of time to hang out in his pj's & get into mischief before stroller strides since he was up at like 7:00. that's early for us! ick. we hit up some target after stroller strides where parker nommed on some squeezy pouches & half my pretzel. he's definitely his mother's son... the kid can put away some serious pretzel.
i couldn't resist this shirt, "Everything I know I learned on The Street." ummm, cute right? i thought so.
we had another campfire friday night where i hit up round two on the s'mores. and here's the crazy part... parker WALKED all over the place. i can't reveal too much, this is obviously a post in itself. so there's the teaser.
some late night skyping with blogger friends wrapped up a pretty amazing week. and now i'm ready for an even amazing-er weekend!
