One whole year!!!

It has been 1 year since I have last posted. WOW!!! I don’t know how I quite feel about it anymore. Either I am just lazy or too busy. Big changes have happened in our house this past year.

-I got a new job working from home, which some days I love and others I hate. If I don't get work done while Blake is sleeping, my house gets destroyed. It is nice to be able to stay at home with Blake all the time.

-This year my parents took me, my siblings, and our spouses (no kids) on a Mexican Riviera Cruise! Awesome!! We loved it. It was so relaxing to not have to worry about taking care of Blake, but I sure did miss him. Thanks to my wonderful sister-in-law and mother-in-law for taking such great care of him!!! It was so hard to come home after a week of being waited on and have to do everything myself.

-We both recently got new callings in our ward. Eric is now the Sunday School President and I am now the Young Women's Second Councilor. YWs is super busy and I am always doing something for it, but I love the girls and have so much fun with this calling.

-Our biggest news…Another Schoenfeld will make presence in February 2012. It is a girl and we could not be more excited. Blake always gives his sister kisses and says he loves her, but he also tells me daily he is going to beat her up. I had my surgery (cerclage) in August and it seems to be keeping this baby in with no problem. I don't know how I would handle being on bedrest with a 3-year-old around. We are so thankful and feel so blessed that this pregnancy has been so easy. Well, I was pretty sick for a while, but I am over that now and feel great!

Me at 24.5 weeks!

Goodbye Summer

What a great summer we have had, I'm kind of excited to start Fall (if it ever comes.)
We have enjoyed going camping and love the new spot Eric found for us. We went fourwheeling and the colors were so beautiful, B of course loved the ride, and being able to run around and get dirty. These pictures are from two different camping trips.

B loved the 4-Wheeler!

Our camp site was next to a herd of sheep.

Look at his eye...Dang pink eye would not go away.

He is planning what evil thing to do to mom next.

The best we could get of the family.

This is B running, very hard to get a picture of a very active 2 1/2 yr old.

Hunting season started...Eric is very excited. He has gotten B to say "I wanna shoot ducks." Poor ducks. Whenever B asks for Dad during the day, he asks to shoot ducks. I feel bad for all of those poor birds.

Summer 2010

Blake's new "Big Boy Bed"

First night...did ok. Second...horrible!

Blake posing with his new "unders" (underwear).

Grandma bought a fun blowup slide, Blake loved it. Eric and I were the only adults to actually get in and play...does that make us kids at heart, or just immature?

Blake has been going on the potty for about a week now, he is doing awesome and only having a couple accidents a day. He knows to hold it, and has gone 2 nights staying dry. Blake's new bed is a lot harder then the crib. He used to just go to sleep when we put him in it, now he gets out. Last night about 4 am I heard a door slam and then right in my face Blake said "I want milk". It kinda scared me, I'm used to him crying to get my attention. We have officially started the throwing fit stage, over anything. Eric just got back from Seattle, he was working on the temple up there. He was greatly missed, Blake asked for him several times everyday. When we went to pick him up Blake started running to him yelling "daddy, daddy" he was so happy his dad was home.

St. George

Last weekend we went to St. George with my parents, sister and her kids. We went and saw Tarzan at Tuachan, which was amazing. My Grandma got to come to the play with us, and we visited with Grandpa. It was super hot, we ate lots of good food, went to the outlets, and swam a lot. There was a kiddie pool where we stayed that was only 2 feet deep, and Blake loved it. He could swim without us holding on to him, he dunks his head under and tries floating on his tummy...he has got no fear. Eric watched the two boys while we went to Tarzan, and caught up on some much needed sleep. Blake slept 3 hrs both to and from, making the drive quite nice. Next trip Seattle...then to Mexico...I am so excited!!!

Brielle wanted to be in our family pic!

Monkey from Tarzan (he had really bad B.O.)

Toy Story 3

I was so excited to see Toy Story 3! I love those movies, and I knew Blake wouldn't sit in a crowded theatre. I took him to see Shrek 4 a couple months ago, and he just ran up and down the stairs. So I figured the Drive-In would be perfect, plus we had to break Eric's new Truck in! It was so much fun...Blake did pretty good. After Toy Story the boys slept, while I watched Prince of Persia, which I really liked. It was a fun night to spend with the boys!

Yay!!!

We got these in the mail the other day!! We are so excited for next year and can't wait!!!!

Spring 2010

We have been doing a lot this spring, and time has just flown by. About a month ago we went on our first camping trip of the year. It was just to Antelope Island for a night, but it was fun to get out.

Blake loved the gravel around the campsite!

We bought these huge marshmallows for S'mores, they were a little to big, the insides were never cooked enough!

Look how close the Buffalo was!

We went to Treehouse Museum with my sister and her kids.

We went up Farmington Canyon and shot Eric's new gun!

Baby Animal Days in Wellsville.

I got Eric to stand by the snake, he was freaking out, he hates snakes!!
