July has been a good month. We've had sun! (And that's enough to make it a good month alone!). We've really loved having some sunny days to relax outside. It's almost felt like we've been abroad somedays, especially during our recent day trip to Bournemouth, which was literally like being on holiday somewhere ultra hot! Plus, at home we've loved having our brand new swimming pool out.
It's felt so good to get back in to a normal routine this month. A routine of having to just juggle work and the boys and no longer having to try and somehow fit home redecorating in there too. We're finally finished with the rooms and it's so nice to finally just be able to enjoy them, rather than see them as things that are on the never ending to do list. I've recently shared a room tour of our new loft conversion on my blog as well as one on my youtube channel if you'd like a peek.
We've also seen big changes in the boys this month too, suddenly they both seem so grown up and their bond has changed too. They've gone from existing with each other to actually playing with eachother and forming a really lovely bond. Adam and I have both noticed it and I can really see it in our latest family video - I had so many lovely clips of the boys doing things together rather than alone.
This months photo is a sunny one from our recent beach day out, we all look a bit tired because we took it at the end of the day rather than when we first got there. But it's not about how we look really, it's much more about the memory of us actually being there. :) Hope everyone had a lovely July!
