The past couple of weeks have been super busy! Balancing work and Baby A has been challenging since she is our #1 priority. We have found ourselves caring for her during the day and after she goes to sleep at 7pm, we work. It reminds me of my days of grad school when I went to class and worked during the day and came home to work on my business at night. We have launched a few more ventures lately so the pressure is on. Though it takes a lot of commitment, I thoroughly enjoy the challenge.
For the 4th of July, we went down to Shiner for the Half Moon Holidays. My parents decided to enter the BBQ cook-off with friends so we had our first annual cook-off as the “Home Brew BBQ Crew”. I think that is what we were called. We had T-shirts so we were pretty professional looking
Dad really enjoyed it and so did Avery. She loves being outside! We got to see the beautiful fireworks that the Shiner brewery sponsors every year as well.
We took Avery shopping at the Galleria for her 4th of July outfit. Here she is at Janie and Jack.
Shopping is rough!
