Family Vacation 2012

So I know I have been terrible at blogging lately!!! The pregnancy has been by far the hardest, longest, sickest, etc. and we are nearing the end! I finally finished our Vacation Book and the last half of 2011 is close behind! I hope all is well with your families and that you have a wonderful and blessed holiday season!

1st day of preschool

 
Today was a day of a new adventure for our family- Nathan started his first day of preschool!!!



He is attending the Child Development Center here in Riverton, 4 days a week in the afternoon class. He is going for speech, some social/emotional, and lots of OT. We found out through the different testing that 99% of children are LESS active than my child!!! Boy, did that make me feel a bit relieved- I haven't just been imagining his over-active-ness-high-strung-never-stop-energy!! Apparently Nathan is very high on the sensory spectrum meaning he doesn't ever feel like he is getting enough sensory imput to focus or calm down. This would explain why, when we visited Disneyland and Sea World and all the really high energy places on our trip to California- Nathan was great!! He was so perfect and well behaved- because he was getting enough stimulation from all the over sensory information available. Now that we know what is going on, we can hopefully get him the help he needs before he goes to Kindergarten in a year or two!!


Now his first day went GREAT!! He checked himself in by finding the worm with his name on it! Micheal and I dropped him off (Ammon cried the whole way home!) and he rode home on the bus!!



 I was a bit bumbed because we had a 20 minute downpour- right as the bus was dropping him off. So I don't really have any pictures but let me tell you he was so happy and focused this afternoon- after one day there was a noticable difference in his behavior and attention span. He actually sat through dinner, has played actively but without his whirlwind out of control. Boy, this is good.

It's A.....








Boys taking a bite to see if there was pink or blue hidden in the cupcakes....




Its BLUE!!! A BOY!!!


Nathan's jumped up put his fists in the air and yelled "YAY ANOTHER BROTHER!!"
Ammon profoundly said "Blue" and pointed to the inside of his cupcake.

Where have we been?

As you know- I was really looking forward to completing my 365 project- I was doing sooo good too wouldn't you say? 3 straight months and all scrapped!!!

Well some of you might be guessing (or so I have heard) and some of you already know but to make it official on our blog..... 

we are expecting baby #3!!! 

We are super excited but boy April gave us a long hard go!! I was super duper sick and pretty much in bed the whole month :( My poor boys were so good to let mommy rest and Michael really picked up the slack where he could! 

To add to my stress of not taking care of my family- we had been planning our 1st family vacation to California!! How was I going to go on a trip when I was soo sick? Lots of prayers and a few blessings later I went, survived, had fun and conquered! Here are some pics of our time in the sun:



Nathan and Ammon's first Theme Park Ride at Sea World

 The view from our back porch at sunset- beautiful no?

 Nathan got to meet Pluto first thing as we entered Disneyland!

 The whole family poses for a pic with Pluto!

 Nathan got to have the honor of walking with Mickey as Toon Town opened!He was SOOO excited!!

 Nathan and Ammon got to steer the Mark Twain Riverboat! They received offiical pilots license afterward too!

 Nathan becoming Diego

 Ammon had to have a turn :)

 This is my favorite pic of Nathan :)

 Where we were staying for the week- Imperial Beach, California!

 Ammon really loved the sand! the water - not so much

 Nathan and Michael had fun in the tide- until Nathan fell and decided he didn't really like the ocean :)
The boys with my grandparents, Loretta and Gerald Schiefer- LOVE YOU GUYS!!


I am now 12 weeks along and baby is due December 4th- we are going to find out what we are having this time because Nathan insists its a sister and if it is a brother he 'is going to be sad' and he 'will cry' as he has told us. Sooo I want to be prepared! 

Oh and on a side note- I graduated with my AA in Early Childhood Education this last semester! It is official I am qualified to teach preschool! And about the 365- it just feel apart when the preg tested positive and my head was in the toilet. I just didn't have the energy or desire to continue- sorry!! 

Now who's ready for summer???

Week 3 of 365


Here is our week three! It was a busy week- Michael and I both started school at CWC, we got our first exercise bike (I hope to get some of my baby tummy to disappear with it!), we had three 50 degree weather days (I have been in heaven- warm sunshine in Wyoming in January!) and Michael and I went to Billings, MT on Saturday to attend the temple (which was a long trip but wonderful!) and the boys got to spend the day with Grammy. Off to the start of a new week! I hope all's well with all of you!

Week 1 of the 365 Project

Hi all! I am still working on catching up with summer, fall and winter of last year (no biggie right?) :) and I am starting a new project this year- the 365! Everyday you take a picture and then at the week's end you compile them into a page and viola! the week has been documented! I have even set an alarm on my phone to remind me to take a picture everyday! It has been lots of fun so far and I am excited to continue :) Here is a look at our first week of 2012- I also post all my scrapbook pages on anjldezigns.blogspot.com if you ever want to see them! Hope you all are having a great start off to 2012!!!
