Morning walk along the beach 💙 Living in Edinburgh was beautiful but I sure did miss this view! While we’ve been back in Perth and staying with my in-laws, I’ve been going for long morning walks with Connor in the pram about 3-4 mornings a week. (Some weeks I’ve been every day but some weeks only once or twice 🤷🏼‍♀️) But we’re getting ready to move back into our own house now (the tenants we had while we were away moved out a few weekends ago) which is a 15-min drive (as opposed to 5-min walk) away so I’m trying to go as many mornings as possible now to soak it all up!

Definitely one of those days today! ☕️ Connor was 4 months on Friday and he’s still waking up 3-4 times a night 😭 (Only feeding once though.) I’m going to start some gentle sleep training soon to try and get that down to ideally just 1 (or none?!). He goes to bed at 7.30pm easily though and naps great during the day (usually 2 x 90mins and 2 x 45mins), so it’s just the *staying asleep* part I want to work on. I think it will mostly come down to getting rid of his dummy so he can learn to put himself back to sleep without it. Considering going cold turkey which will no doubt be painful for at least a few days 😵😴 Wish me luck!

Brunch at @theshorehouse for the second weekend in a row 👌🏼 Just delish ✨

This guy! 😍 #babyConnor #2monthsold His faces just kill me. He’s so freaking adorable. I could spend hours just looking at him 💜

So yup we’re back in Perth 😍🌲 Our new family of 3 moved moved back from Edinburgh to our hometown in mid-September. I already miss the people in Scotland - we made some amazing friendships in our 2 years there - but it was definitely the right time to come back and I couldn’t be happier. Especially when we get to go for walks like this every day... Matilda Bay you are very beautiful indeed 🌲🌿

First cut and colour in 2 years! I really should look after my hair more 😬💇🏼‍♀️ 〰️ P.S. Outfit of the day: @babybjorn carrier 😄 He loves this thing! As soon as I put him in there he falls asleep almost immediately. Who needs a pram?! (Or a gym, now that he weighs almost 5kg / 11lbs! 😱)

And just like that, we were a family of three! Connor Murray William Westphal, born August 7th 💙

37 weeks!! The past two months has seriously flowwwwn by 🚀 Can’t believe I have just a couple of weeks left (or it could be any day really)! Come on baby boy, we’re ready to meet you 💙
