Maternity Photos

These are a bit overdue considering Cambria has arrived but here are all of the maternity photos we took back in June.  Our copies were sitting in the mailbox when we got home from the hospital.  Enjoy!

Summer time fun


Here are some more pictures and things from our last summer as a family of 3.  They are all out of order and very random but hopefully you'll enjoy them!


Sarah and Claire came to visit for a night - it was so great to relax and visit 

Hello month #9 - we're getting really excited and ready for you to come Baby T

Me and Mack supervising the guys' work on the toy chest

We found this old chest for super cheap at an estate sale and Sammy helped us bring it back to life

4th of July


Spending a day at the lake over the 4th of July weekend


Week 35 fell on 4th of July


The Ensign's had a joint party with their next door neighbors for the 4th.  We had amazing food, a ping pong tournament, and finished the night off with the Wells Branch fireworks.



Emma is not a fan of fireworks

These guys crack me up

Sammy was on photography duty the whole evening

Austin Baby Shower

The weekend of June 22nd our Missional Community hosted a baby shower for us in Austin.  It was a beautiful shower where everybody brought a book instead of a card and everything was decked out in yellow.  It was a great mix of my family (both biological and church), grad school friends, and a few work friends as well.  We were so blessed by the celebration and the generous gifts.  We have also loved looking through all of the books.  Here are a ton of pictures to share...


Amazing food!!!

Next to the candy bar people could write encouraging notes to me.  Each one has a different date on it telling me when to read it :-)

Me and Amber (A-Rod)  - we had the shower at her beautiful house

Becca and Judie - wonderful friends from River Ridge

Allison and Amber - my cousin and cousin in law

Amy and Katie - the ones I have known the longest from our Missional Community

Opening presents

My Oma crochets baby blankets for one of the local hospitals.  I've told her for 8 years that I want one but she said she would wait until I was pregnant.  This was my gift and my mom said it's been in her closet for 8 years.  I adore my Oma!

Cute gift from Judie

A-Rod remembered that I had seen these baby slings months ago online.  I had completely forgotten!  When you buy a sling the company donates one to mothers in need and teaches them how to use them and their benefits.

One of my favorite books

We love these from Jenny and Daniel

Yummy - couldn't resist
