my growing belly

23 weeks

25 weeks (and I'm just holding the beer for the picture)

My Summer Vacation




While I didn't actually have a summer vacation, we've both been very busy with various activities, as well as still getting settled in our house.

In June I went to Mason, Texas to attend the annual Kensing reunion. It was nice to see family I hadn't seen since before I left for Japan. It was also some nice bonding time with my niece, Havanna!





In July, I was able to go to Florida to attend an optometry conference and also see Kristi and the rest of the Rawleys! While there, I participated in getting Kate's ears pierced as a gift for her 10th birthday!! It's hard to believe she could possibly be 10 years old already!!


It's a tough job going to classes while surrounded by the beautiful beaches of Naples, Florida---but somehow Jamie and I managed to get our needed education hours and still get a tan!! The Rawleys also came down to Naples and we had a good time searching for seashells!



In August we celebrated mom and dad's birthdays! Mom hit the big 6-0!! We had a birthday party in Waco with mom's twin brother, younger brother, Grandma and Papa, and lots of cousins! This trip also let me meet my newest niece, Marley!! She was soooo little and sweet! :)


It was a nice afternoon of family, food and a few games of washers!
