San Antonio Bound

My Uncle Tim and Aunt Dee are celebrating their 50th Anniversary this weekend. My dad’s side of the family is all very spread a part and so we rarely see each other, but a bunch of us are heading down to Texas this weekend to celebrate! I can’t wait to see my extended family, especially […]

Nana and Papa Swainhart’s House: Week 1

I had the pleasure of visiting my parents again for a couple of weeks. My dad had two video jobs that he wanted my help with and it didn’t hurt that it was also my mom’s birthday during the time. Here are a couple snapshots from the first week. Lots of wagon rides • Melting […]

Flying with an Infant

When Eva was four months old, I flew with her to Kentucky. Little did I know that that experience was going to be the easiest time I’d have flying with a baby. It even started off with a blowout before we got onto the plane. Washing her dirty pants in the airport bathroom sink was […]

Fall is in the Air

For weeks, I had been craving chocolate chip pancakes. I finally bought a little mix and we had breakfast for dinner one night. I also bought bacon for the first time in our marriage! T.J. was a happy man… even though it was turkey. Every day we have been spending a lot of time outside […]

10 Months

In two months, my baby girl will be one year old. I can’t even wrap my head around that! But I have to admit, as much as I’m sad about my Evabug growing up, she is becoming to be one of my best friends and I love seeing her grow and develop every day! It […]

Adorbs

Our home teacher is my good friend Erin‘s husband. So, that’s awesome. Sometimes if his companion can’t come Chris brings Erin and it’s the best home-teaching in the world. Last month they had us over for dinner. A full out turkey dinner with beautiful dishes and the cutest place setting you have ever seen. Check […]

Regional Conference

For Regional Conference, our Stake Center had both chapels and four classrooms open to watch the broadcast. We decided to head to one of the classrooms because it would be easier with Eva. Little did we know we’d have the place to ourself! It was awesome! Best two hours of church we had ever had! […]

My Little Sicky

Several weeks ago Eva was having a rough couple of days. I thought it was teething (I’d blame everything on teething if I could), but no more teeth have popped through. One morning when she woke up, I was trying to help her feel better and thought, “Maybe she’d like a binky!” Eva hasn’t taken […]
