A new year! This is the year of the horse. We picked up this Starbucks card so our child will be able to have it – maybe they’d think it was cool. I would have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My birthday came and went, and this year I got a mission belt. I thought the reflection of the Blazers logo on the belt was pretty cool. Why don’t they make a Blazer’s mission belt?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On November 30, 2013, Paul Walker died. We took a trip to go see the area where Paul Walker died (it is in the city my parents currently live). There was a bunch of stuff (car parts etc.) that had messages written on them to Paul and his family. The sidewalk also had been written all over with messages to Paul from his fans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One thing that is nice about working so late, is that most places have little to no lines. We went to Mcdonald’s and we had to wait a bit for someone to come to the speaker for us to order. How funny.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jake is being super cute and LOVES laying down between your legs. He snuggles right up next to you with his soft paws stretching out. We’ve been going to church each week- despite the fact that we live 45 minutes away we think that Central will be our home church – at least it feels that way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Coyotes! We ended up getting cheap tickets to a game, and considering that the Glendale arena isn’t super far away from us, we went to the game. While at the game why not get some Tim Hortons!? I don’t know if any other place stateside where you can get it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The last photo is of the waiting room for the location that we go to for our appointments to checkup on the baby’s health. We see Dr. Damian Bass – outside of hating LA he isn’t so bad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pregnancy cravings are no joke. Maryia has been craving Popsicles and the like for some time now. We keep them stocked in our freezer. We have also been to target recently and shopping the clearance asiles. It has been a little hard to get things that can work for a baby boy or girl, BUT we figure sports is pretty safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Above is a candid photo of Jake and me taking a quick nap-a-rooni on the couch. The last photo is more of a status check to show how pregnant the wife has gotten.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

just Pray<\/p>\n\n\n\n
