Wagon Our Tails

 Anyone else feel victimized from going from beautiful sweatshirt weather spring to SURPRISE welcome to deep summer in the JUNGLE... May your day be filled of humidity, 90*, and an insane amount of mosquitos.... Overnight?!? SIGH!

 On Tuesday in the new found heat, I took the dogs outside for some recess and some fun in the great outdoors and we all had instant regrets. 

Kipper and Lulu refused to leave the shade

And Phoebe was just a waddling out in the blazing sun (GIRL I feel you! Last summer almost did me in when I was pregnant with Thatcher!)  

Then....

DUN DUN DUN DAAAA

Hazel to the rescue!

Don't worry doggies! You don't have to walk when I have a wagon!

To the wagon!!

And so we sang our new made up silly song:
'All Tails are Waggin! We are all aboard the wagon! It's a puppy wagon riiiiide'

And suddenly the too hot muggy buggy day

Turned into a great one indeed <3

Alright summer... We are WAGON our tails and are warm weather ready!

Always,

Amelia

Back at Home

 Clarence finished Camp Always Amelia with gold stars!! 

I was so excited to have so much progress to tell his PAWrents and to have had such a lovely time with one sweet boy. 

Where we started 

to

Where we finished, One Star Pupil!

Sitting during distractions (Hazel gets an A+ here HAHA)

The most patience during toddler potty training 

Clarence: "Been there done that"

No tears nap wake up call duty

"DOG!"

Clarence gave his all every

Single

Day

He was a joy to have in our home

Clarence did GREAT not jumping on anyone by the end of Camp

And as as bonus, my FitBit also loved having Clarence at camp! We hit 20,000 steps every day he was here! Woot!

Table surfing no more! Not even for baby puffs and cheerios!

Tired and ready to return home <3

What a GOOD BOY Clarence!!

Now remember everything you learned for your PAWrents!

We love you!

Always,

Amelia

I Did It!! Sourdough Sunday is Back!

Over the past few weeks I have slowly getting myself back into the sourdough game. 

It started with a loaf of sourdough for my Aunt who came to visit for Hazel's 3rd birthday 

Then a loaf for Mr. Yesteryear Acres' best friends Mom's birthday

Then my sister who was craving a stuffed cheesy garlic sourdough bread

And then finally, a loaf I wanted to eat too

Because squishy sourdough bread should be required on salad nights

Which leads to Friday's loaf that Hazel and I made together. 

Pure sourdough squishy bread magic!

And we all ate carbs forever and ever again.

I did it!!!! Wohoo!

Sourdough Sunday is back baby!!

Always,

Amelia

Happy Caturday!

Always,

Amelia

That Fri-YAY Feeling

It's FRIDAY Y'all! We did it! We made it to the end of the week! I don't know about you, but I felt like I had 4562174895064 Wednesdays in a row this week. How did it go on so long and yet I always ran out of hours to get everything done?? Not that our job ever has 'weekends' but it feels like a nice emotional and mental marker of "wohoo we are surviving!" and also I let myself wear sweatpants on the weekends - because 'casual' amiright!? Anywhoos, I feel extra excited for the weekend this Friday and Nellie was all too ready to celebrate the happiness with me!

Hi Amelia!!!

OHH we are so extra happy today, I can do that too!

It's Fri-YAY?

I don't know what that means, but I love it because you love it

It means more fetch?? COUNT ME IN

I AM READY

I see it! I have time to get that before my babies need me back inside... Hold on one sec

*ZOOM*

Okay Back! I love this game

And I love you and I love... What is it you called it??

Fri-YAY.. Ahh yes. I love Fri-Yay!

May you all have that extra happy Fri-Yay feeling today!

Always,

Amelia 

& Nellie of course! <3
