Catching Up...

Sorry that I haven't posted anything in a couple of weeks. The Schnabels have been pretty busy! Last weekend we headed back to Iowa for Miss Ella's 4th birthday party. We had so much fun. Will loves to play with his cousins and see everyone. On the way there I was asking him who we were going to see and he said, "Ella, Claire-bear, Papa, Grandma, Jami and Erick!" It was really cute. The party was a Hannah Montana party and was a big hit. It was super cute to see the girls dancing around and putting on their make-up. Made me think that I hope my second child is a girl although the boys there were cute too. The one little boy loved to beat, and I mean beat, the pinata with the bat until there was nothing left!! Guess that is what I get to look forward too = ) After cupcakes and ice cream, we all went swimming. I got Will a new life jacket and with the pool only being 3 feet deep, he loved swimming around by himself! Sorry I don't have any pictures from swimming...no need to see me in a suit but hopefully next time we can get some of Will swimming around.
Here are a few pictures from the party:




My little Hannah Montana rock star nieces! Love and miss them so much!!!

We had so much fun and can't wait to see everyone again. Yesterday I asked Will who was going to come to his birthday party and he said, "Ella and Claire-bear!" He is excited to see his cousins and play some more!!
Last week was more work and daycare. Tuesday night we had friends over for pizza and Will and Maci got to play. As always they had lots of fun and laughs.
Last night I went out for dinner with some friends from school. It was great to catch up and to hear about everyone's fieldwork experiences. Lots of laughs there too!! Brian and Will hung out and played the Wii while I was gone and I am told that they had a good night too.
Today we are headed to a friend's house for the big game. I am going to try to remember my camera to get some more pictures of Will and Maci playing so I will post those a little later.
And to end with more pictures of Mr. William. This is cute sensory activity that I learned from work...blowing bubbles in a tub. Will loved it and of course made a huge mess with it but it was fun!



ooohhhh and while uploading these pictures I remembered that Will wanted me to take a picture of EE the other day. So here is a picture of the famous EE!
