HUMAN SPACE INVADERS

Estes family update

It has been a while since we posted an update so I thought I'd put something out here to let our friends around the country know what's new.

Firstly, Jennifer and Benjamin are doing great. Jen is beginning to show and the nausea has finally passed! Her last doctor's visit went well and she was able to hear baby's heartbeat. We still have a while before we'll find out the sex, but we're looking forward to that. Jen's also busy with MOPS and Choir. Ben is cruising now and learning a lot of new things. He likes to walk behind his push-car that we got him for Christmas. His favorite word is still "clock". I've shown him every clock in all the offices and classrooms of the church and he loves it. Maybe he'll be a clock or watch maker or something (not a Sylar type watchmaker, for the "Heroes" fans out there).

Things are well for me also. I'm enjoying vicarage and appreciative of all the opportunities my supervisor and congregation have afforded me to learn. I'm still preaching regularly and leading the young adult Bible study on Sundays. I've also been leading a new member class this month along with my regular responsibilities.

A recent highlight for Jen and I was getting to attend a Cardinals game in Jupiter. We left Ben with his grandparents and made a day trip of it. If you open the above picture you may be able to make out Reyes' old-school socks. He pitched well and they beat the Marlins 4-1. We're looking forward to our vacation in May. We're going to Maggie Valley, NC for a wedding. We'll spend a week in a cabin in the mountains with Ben and my folks.
