I can't believe how long it has been since I have updated this blog. I guess I can, I have never been that great at doing it, but anywho.....where to start with this update??
December 30, 2011, Antonio and I went through the temple to receive our endowments and to be sealed for time and all eternity. We were priviledged enough to receive permission from Joseph & Michael's father and Channing's mother to have them sealed to us as well. So we are all sealed together as a family forever! I was working on getting my degree, but had to put some classes on hold in March when I kept getting sick and wasn't sure why. Well, we now know and it's because we are expecting our 2nd child together, my FIRST little girl in a week! My C-Section is scheduled for Monday October 1st, so let the countdown begin!!! The name we have chosen is Olivia. She is being named after my favorite character on my favorite show. Detective Olivia Benson from Law & Order Special Victims Unit.
As for our other little ones, Channing is in the 5th grade this year. She enjoys reading, science, coloring, and playing outside. She is extremely excited to FINALLY have a little sister and not be the only girl! Joseph is in 3rd grade. He enjoys playing outside with his friends and occasionally reading. Joseph has been selected, based off of high test scores and teacher observation to test for the Talented/Gifted program. We are so excited and proud of him. Good luck Joseph! Michael is in the 1st grade. He loves school and is currently only interested in Indiana Jones. He is very adamant about changing his name to Indiana Jones or Henry. He is just a fun little boy. Ande is going to be 3 on October 22nd, and is currently attending a pre-school class twice a week at a friends home. He loves going to school, playing outside, and wrestling with his brothers.
Antonio is currently employed by ManPower who has contracted him to do a job for Abensa. They are building the largest power plant in the world in Gila Bend, AZ. He is a crane operator and loves his job. Unfortunately, 2 weeks ago he injured his back due to work. We have been to doctors visits every single day, sometimes 3 times a day and are waiting for an approval on an MRI that was ordered. The doctor's think that he has a herniated/ruptured disc. We are hoping that this is not serious and that he will be able to continue on without back surgery.
As for myself, I am still staying at home with the kids. Every day brings something different and can be quite challenging. I am enrolling in classes at the college again in January. Hopefully I can do online classes for now so that I won't have to leave Olivia with a sitter.
This year has been busy and full of new and exciting things. We hope that once little Livvie arrives, things will slow down a bit!
Bye Bye!

Finally, an Update......
It is official, I am super lame at this blogging stuff, but I will continue to update anyways. So much has happened once again.....I am a stay at home mom/student/wife now. I am an Independent Gold Canyon Consultant, the BEST candles, oils, scent pods EVER!!! I am currently attending EMCC working towards my Associate of Science and then I will be transferring to a university to study Psychology. I either want to be a Psychiatrist or be a Psych Nurse, in that case I would have to get my degree in Nursing. Decisions, Decisions. Antonio is currently working on the LARGEST solar plant in the Nation in Gila Bend, AZ. He is a Crane Operator/Lead. We were so greatly blessed with this job and the ability that it has provided me to be a stay at home mommy.
Channing is in 4th grade and doing well! She loves to brush my hair and give me massages, Seriously she does. It is actually VERY nice! She loves school and helping me with my chores, etc. Joseph is in 2nd grade and doing AWESOME! He brings home spelling tests with 100's every week! He loves playing baseball and doing karate. Mikey is in Kindergarten. He loves school and is completely girl crazy. He loves playing baseball and doing karate with his big brother. Little Ande is now 2 and is definately a terror. He loves cars and anything with wheels. He enjoys playing outside and picking on his older siblings. These are some of our fun family adventures.
Ande's fro
After the fro!

This year so far.......
January 1, 2011- Mikey had his 5th birthday! It is so amazing and sad how fast they grow up. He still seems like a baby to me. We had a little party for him at Peter Piper (his choice), and just had family and friends over.
March 16, 2011- Joseph turned 7! He is getting so big and in a year he will be able to be baptized! Just the other day he asked me if he could get married in the temple. I was so happy to hear that he loves the gospel.
Also in March, I quit my job to stay home with my little boys again.
April 2011- I began a new job working from home for U-Haul. I really enjoy it and
I love being able to stay home with my babies. The boys love it too. I have so many more opportunities to bond with my boys. Just a couple of weeks ago, I went on a field trip with Joseph to the AZ Science Center. It was lots of fun and I got a lot of pictures of Jojo and some of his friends. I have also decided to start being more dedicated to my blog. I need to be better at updating our blog, so that is my goal.
Antonio is doing well in his job. Although he is already looking for a new career. He is hoping to get back in law enforcement, so hopefully he can find a job with an agency soon!
Ande is getting so big and loves dancing. He climbs on everything and when he hears any music he starts dancing with his daddy. He is 18 months now and in nursery and We LOVE it! Everyday with him is an adventure, h
e has such a sweet, yet sassy and demanding attitude.
That's all for now.
