Guys. I have some bad news. The entire foreseeable forecast here in Sac is 100+… Like, what even IS that?! I can’t live like this. Anybody have a beach house they want to loan us for the next, say, week and a half? That’d be great. Because I’m pretty sure not being able to be outside from noon through 8pm is going to be TOR-TURE for us. Am I being dramatic? I could never ever live in the desert, that’s for sure. Not sure how you desert folk do it. Maybe teach me your ways? I’ll have some time to test them out…
Anyway. We will be spending a lot of time doing water activities the next week, I can assure you of that. Good thing Sam and Sophie both LOVE the water. It’s all that sounds good when it’s so dang hot out.
This week was so full of fun! Pool parties and coffee dates and working out with friends and family dinners. It was so good! Here’s to a fun weekend! And some photos from the week, before I sign off…
I’ve teamed up with Wantable to share their fun monthly subscription box. I got my first box of fitness clothes- and GUYS. I. Love. It. I mean, this kale sweatshirt is basically my life. I took a little profile quiz and gave super detailed notes on what I love and don’t love, and a box showed up at my house and I loved almost everything in it! For someone who is SO picky about my clothes and am obviously my own stylist and don’t trust other people styling me (true story), it was hard to relinquish a bit of control, but I’m so happy with what they sent. It helps that I left such detailed notes ;) and had such an awesome stylist! Check it out here if you want to try it out for yourself! So fun!
Me and Sophie had a little coffee date with some friends- it was crazy, full of snacks for the babies and some screaming (from the babies), but oh so fun to spend quality time! Sophie and Chloe are just 5 days apart!
Catching my girl having a sweet little moment in her new adorable rocker (thanks to Wildkin!) It is absolutely beautiful, a definite heirloom piece that will be around for generations! Love it so much! And she does too- she just climbs up into it and reads or rocks. It’s the cutest.
Okay. Weekend tiiiime!
Tell me: what do you love to do when it’s H-O-T? Gimme ideas, please!!

The funny thing about living in the desert is that you get used to the heat so much that 100 degrees doesn’t feel that hot and suddenly 80 degrees feels cold. I swear your blood thins!! Once it gets above 100 that’s when we admit it’s hot. (I live in Tucson, AZ and we’re going to experience 115 degrees this weekend…eeeeeek!) Anyway, we usually wake up early and walk the dogs and enjoy outside before it gets too hot. Then we usually avoid the heat by going to see movies in the middle of the day, or having a movie marathon at home or just take a nap…because the heat sucks all the energy out of you. Then once that sun starts to set we come out of hiding and enjoy what little daylight is left. POPSICLES are a must!!!
That is CRAZY to get used to this heat, but it makes sense!! And yep, waking up early and getting things done is key, for sure! Movie marathons sound fun- we’ll have to do that. :) Thanks for the ideas, girl!

Samantha basically summed it all up! You don’t even notice it’s hot here in Tucson till it’s over 100 but you think your freezing at 80!! Hahaha popsicles are a must! Try making your own different flavors would be fun! Water time and shopping is also a fun way to keep cool! Do they have any water park areas around you?! We have a few parks that have water zones for kids to play in(:
Oooh making popsicles- such a fun idea!! And yes, we have water parks and also lots of little wading pools and splash pads- I think we’ll be hitting those up! ;)

YES so much pool time!! Necessary. ;)

Such a sweet picture of Sophie. :) That IS hot! I remember living out in Oklahoma and it being that hot and now I don’t know what I’d do without the beach! Love just sitting on the stairs in the pool with a book! Probably not practical with little ones though! haha.
Ugh I wiiiiish I could sit on stairs in a pool and read… haha! Some day…! ;) Enjoy!! That sounds heavenly.
