Our little mountain man’s first adventure was a success! 🧡⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
I was a little hesitant to travel with our babe so soon, but am so thankful Alessandro was persistent (his best quality 😂). Yes, it was a little stressful at first given our first day of travel did not go as planned, but just like with anything, you get through, learn a little along the way, and just gotta go with it. You’re just making memories!⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
The Mountains have always been our happy place. It’s always our go-to spot, and being able to bring our sweet, smiley, little guy here makes me the very happiest! He was a total trooper the entire time, minus some tummy issues the last day (He’s got a case of the alti-toots), but hey who doesn’t? 😂⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣
It was a much needed getaway for us and making time for family is so Important, whether that’s taking a walk, going out to eat, traveling to your favorite spot, or just watching a good ole flick. ⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! ✨✨⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
