It's been the hottest June on record in Utah, and my poor little toddler and 30-week pregnant self have really felt it (not to mention Daddy, who has been out installing a sprinkler system all week). We've gotten pretty creative when it comes to keeping cool, with activities including but not limited to playing with soap bubbles on the kitchen floor, filling the little pool and playing in the yard, borrowing Grandma and Grandpa's shade tent, pouring cups of water down Mommy's fully clothed back (that one was all Jack's idea of fun) filling a bin with water and then climbing in it, taking cool baths and showers three times a day, dunking our heads under the faucet (that one was NOT Jack's idea of fun), playing with and singing into the fan, eating ridiculous quantities of Otter Pops, and running around in nothing but a diaper (too bad Mommy can't join in on that one).
Despite the heat, it's been a fun summer so far, and I absolutely love all my time with my little guy. Daddy has been busy working on research as a research assistant to an accounting professor, studying full time for the GMAT, and this week installing a sprinkler system. Here's hoping the GMAT goes well at the end of the month so we can relax a little in August!
