Here’s Maya helping me shop for bedding for our new bed.

Somebody doesn’t want to be a little Jayhawk! Uncle Lee & Kaitlin stopped by later that afternoon and after spotting the KU outfit from Nanny Katie went out and bought her 2 new MU t-shirts. Pics of those to follow soon.

We went to Stephanie’s house for the 4th to celebrate with some friends from our Friday play date group. From Left to Right is Keira, Eva, Maya & Liam (Stephanie’s son). We tried to get a good pic of the babies on the couch, but those never work out…

Maya’s future b-friend?

Snacks, attack!

We took another trip to see Aunt Brie. Here’s baby girl the day before getting excited about the trip.

On the plane ride. Maya got the 2nd best baby on the plane award on the way there and the #1 best baby on the very long ride home with lots of help from Kaitlin and Lee.

We hung out in Pacific Beach one day.

We all had Maya strapped to us at one point or another.

Beach bum


Hanging out in La Jolla. We wet to La Jolla 2 days. Once during the day to hang at the beach and the next time at sunset to look at the seals and do some shopping. Uncle Corey came with us the 1st day, but couldn’t come the 2nd time we went. I didn’t take very many pics this trip because Lee brought his fancy camera and he got the best shots. If I get the images from him and Kaitlin, I’ll post some more later.

San Diego Zoo. We road the tram for a 40 minute ride through the zoo. We only had a few hours to spend at the zoo and we’d like to go back one day when there’s more time.

After the Zoo we went to Coronado for lunch and one last look at the beach. Maya’s wearing the dress Uncle Corey got her when he was out to sea with the Navy several months ago.

Wearing Uncle Lee’s Royals hat, hanging out in the SD airport ready to go home and see daddy! We missed daddy very much. Vacation is just not the same when one of us is missing. Whenever I’d say dadadada to Maya she’d get a huge grin on her face and look around for him. She’s going to be so excited to see him tonight!

We had a wonderful trip. We got in around 2am last night, so we’re a bit on the tired side, but we got to do a lot of fun things in San Diego and got to spend a lot of time with Uncle Corey & Aunt Brie enjoying their beautiful city before they leave in August to MOVE HOME (back where they belong I might add). haha. Safe travels, we love you! Thanks for your hospitality!

Last week I had to go to Wichita again for work. Grandma Rosie & Maya came with me. In the evenings we took long walks and did some shopping. Here we are by the water near the shopping strip.



Maya experiencing ducks for the first time. She wasn’t real sure what to think of them.

Having fun with Grandma!

We took RB to Boudreaux’s to celebrate Father’s Day with him. We got to sit outside by the pond and had a great time.

Maya & her friend Eva hanging out in Eva’s tent by the pool. Eva took off her shade’s for the picture.

Hanging out with the ladies for Denise’s wedding shower.

Maya didn’t want to go in her toy yet, but she did like to splash the water and keep her feet in.

As many of you know our house is on the market and yesterday we came to an agreement on a new house! We close early July and are very excited. Now we just pray that our house sells quickly.
Yesterday we had a showing so Maya & I had to find something to do. We decided to go to Mimi’s for breakfast. Here she is sitting next to me on the booth playing with her spoon. Here’s her face when I tell her we just got the call that we’ve got a new house! I’m not sure she cares much.

Our new neighbors. These horses live at Leawood stables which is right behind our new place.

Here’s a shot of the back of the house for Brie.
