On returning after a long hiatus.

Hey, guys! Damn, it's been a hot minute. The Esakoff's have been busy this past year! I promise I'll get back to posting more frequently, as I'll have so much to talk about come July...

A not-so-secret anymore, Eric & I are expecting a sweet little girl! She is due July 29th; we're taking bets on how accurate that'll be ;). We talked & talked about waiting before we tried again, but it was just the right time for us. We couldn't be more excited. I'll post later about this experience for us (but spoiler, it's been really great).

This was our little announcement picture.

I noticed I haven't updated since May of last year, so I have a quick rundown of what we've been up to since then.

New car! Isn't she gorgeous?! My little EOS was NOT going to fit a carseat.

We went to Oklahoma for a short lake trip. We do this every other year with E's dad,
it's always a complete blast.

A little staycation in Dallas. We stayed at the awesome Belmont Hotel, a huge recommendation
for anyone looking for a night away. It is so unique.

Shane-O came for a visit! We love having him here in Dallas, but now that he's done with his documentary, I fear we'll never be able to bribe him back.

Beach trip to Port Aransas for mum's birthday. So much swimming, so much beach hair <3.

Weekend in CA with Stephen, for a quick getaway. Can't wait to visit our favorite winery again.

& we treated ourselves to a first class trip to CA for a little "babymoon". Thanks for the cheese, Virgin ;).

New puppy! I think we may have been crazy to do this, but he's now 9 months old & so sweet.

This is our little one, at 20 weeks. She is already a handful & never stops moving. Wish us luck ;).

& last but not least,

my 20 week bump. I can still see my toes, so all is well.

I pinky-promise to update more. I'm sure it'll get easier when I can't really get around much anymore, haha! We're working hard on the nursery & moving the house around. Nesting, right? I'll share more on that later.

Sending much love, take care.

xo Chlo.

Just a little sidenote: It has come to my attention that someone has been magpie-ing from this blog. As much as I try to think of this as flattery, taking the very personal words from my post regarding the loss of our baby is entirely inappropriate & super uncool. Not to mention, your actions constitute copyright infringement. I think it's clear where I'm going with this. I wish you all the best, but cut it out.
