Exploring Corpus Christi

Oh my goodness! I completely forgot that I hadn't posted this blog and these pictures! Things have been a little crazy around here (as you'll see in our next blog with more recent pictures:)), but the pictures below are from some of our first ventures out into Corpus Christi trying to get to know the community, which included a trip to a Hooks game, the Art Museum of South Texas. We also acquired a few more pieces of furniture for our apartment!

The Corpus Christi Hooks play regular games over the summer and Mike and I decided to go to "military night". Even though neither of us is super into baseball, Mike is into Dippin Dots ice cream (of which there was plenty there) and I like leaving peanut shells on the floor:)

Note to self for next time: getting shady seats is worth it. The TX sun can be brutal even after 6pm!

I know this doesn't look like much, but I was really proud of myself for making a pizza crust out of sweet potatoes, and I actually really liked it! 

This is a view from the cafe at the Art Museum of South Texas that (L to R) shows the edge of the Texas State Aquarium, the USS Lexington, and a boat coming in.

A reminder to go to the pool more because it is glorious for pregnancy!

Wonder Woman shirt gift from my person, Kelly:) A book that I recently finished from the library (got a library card!) and a postcard from friends in Colorado.

He loves being an only child for now haha.

Another picture of Rupert enjoying all of the extra room.

We got new bookcases and Rupert somehow managed to scale them, of course. This was the first bookcase, but now we have TWO of these! We love books:)

And you can see where this is going to go.....

I hope you can tell how crazy proud he is of himself in this picture.

I have been pretty good about working out thanks to a plan for prenatal workouts I got online that helps keep me accountable and safe:)

Beautiful sunset

New shoe rack and keyholder for our entryway!

You were not allowed to take pictures of Art at the Art Museum of South Texas (so you all will just have to come visit!), but Mike did take a picture of me trying out this collage art simulation:)

Get excited for another post soon (hopefully today!)!
