scenes from our second week living in connecticut,

scenes from our second week living in connecticut, much more overwhelming than the first, but luckily it still fully feels like vacation in between all the terrible logistical crap.

arlo took up fishing in our backyard river (!!!), we soaked up lots of beach time, had an amazon cotton candy sky on a night when i really needed it— and i’ve officially decided the house needs an outdoor shower

we’re still drowning in boxes but it’s feeling more like home

the boxes are endless and the to-do list is a mile

the boxes are endless and the to-do list is a mile long but i just hung a fish on the wall and feeling great about it!! 🐚

our first week of living our new life in our new h

our first week of living our new life in our new house— lots and lots of boxes, sandwiches, mosquito bites and happy tears. oh and free dining chairs!!

june was the most eventful month of my entire life

june was the most eventful month of my entire life!?!!!

we moved out of our house, had a going away party and said bye to all our friends and family, threw arlo an early birthday party, he finished 2nd grade, turned 8, and went to his first ever concert @alfredyankovic

then we headed to connecticut, patiently waited for the moving truck and now we just like LIVE HERE!!?!

today my baby is 8! 😭🤯 insane how fast it’

today my baby is 8! 😭🤯 insane how fast it’s all gone, arlo has always been the funniest, coolest and most passionate kid of all time.

a little walk down memory lane with some favorite arlo memories — purple guy, sand eater, chronic tripper, the most loving little dude.

may you see all the sharks eating people, collect all the rare pokémon cards and eat all the orange pasta and soup dumplings your heart desires in life!!!!

greetings from new england!!! still cannot believe

greetings from new england!!! still cannot believe we’ve officially left los angeles for the connecticut shoreline WHAT IN THE WORLD???

i’ll do a more in depth tour soon, but for now, this is it!!! she needs a looootta tlc but such good bones and a freaking killer view too. my literal life goal has been a gorgeous view to look at every morning and every sunset and i cannot believe this is real life 😭

so grateful. so excited. soooo nervous to live in an old house.

oh and yes for those worried about the children with the water yes me too— we got a latch for the top of the back door so they can’t go out without us and izzy starts swim lessons next week!? the previous owners had young kids too so i think we can live here safely! we also have a huge flat fully fenced in front yard they can play in safely!

need a name for the house!! it’s blue and it’s on a river… !? would love your suggestions!
