Our little prodigy:)

For labor day we visited Jeremiah's family in Topeka. Amaya loves the water and had fun swimming with Daddy and Grandma and Grandpa Estes. It was such a beautiful day, I was so happy that we could enjoy it before the rain and cold weather came.

For some reason I have a very difficult time updating this blog. Maybe it's because I haven't been feeling well lately, but I am going to try to update at least once a week now.

I am now ten weeks pregnant and unfortunately still dealing with morning /all-day sickness. I am hoping that all will be well again in a couple of weeks, for now I am just taking it easy. I am enjoying my afternoon naps most of all;).

Baby Estes #2!

Today I had my first prenatal appointment and everything went great! I am almost 9 weeks now. The baby had a strong heartbeat 179bpm! It was so exciting to see new life again.

I am feeling ok these days, mostly I am just really tired, nauseous, and hungry. I'm ready to be done with this morning sickness! It's totally different being pregnant and taking care of a one year old, I am exhausted:).


BIG SISTER!

Piggy Tales :)

We've been trying to do something with Amaya's hair lately...it's been a mess! We're trying to grow it out but it keeps getting in her eyes, which is driving me crazy. Yesterday I sat her down and put pig tales in her hair. She hated the process but boy does she look cute!

Vacation Part 2: New York, New York

The next stop on our trip was NYC. We had a great time seeing Melissa again and checking out her new place. We kept very busy for the few days we were visiting. Enjoy the pictures!

Vacation Part 1: Jim Thorpe, PA

We left last Tuesday to go to on our week long vacation. We visited Jeremiah's sister Melissa in New York and my mom's side of the family in Pennsylvania. It was so much fun seeing my family again. It had been nine years since I had seen most of them. Amaya got spoiled of course and Jeremiah and I loved hanging out with family, they really made us feel right at home. I wish we could have stayed longer but we had plans for the weekend in New York City!
