Beach Fun!

Mike headed to Colorado June 10-18 with the youth group for their summer trip.  That's a long time to be away from Daddy so we decided to head out for some fun of our own.  We went down to Angleton to visit my family and got to go to the beach.  Even better, Aunt Kristi & Uncle Casey, and Uncle Thomas came down to join the fun too.  Noah had a blast and I was thankful to have some extra hands to help entertain him for a while.

Roarrrr!

One of the perks of teaching at UT is that I get a real summer again!  So Noah and I have been doing lots of random stuff to keep us busy--story time at the library, swim lessons and playing in the pool, play dates, and lots of craft time.  Here's his latest creation.  Roar!!


It's been really great for me to have time off this summer.  Just as I started to get more tired and uncomfortable toward the last months of pregnancy I got a built in break!  I'm still busy preparing for my fall classes (so that I can enjoy time with the baby once she comes rather than cram to get ready for the fall) and am picking up a little part time work here and there, but for the most part I've been able to relax and have extra fun with Noah.  And catch up on all the things around the house that would otherwise never get done.   We prayed about the timing of this pregnancy and I'm so thankful that God had it all under control--His perfect timing!
