Update

I have failed to update the blog for so long! Okay, well our lives are so hectic and crazy right now! We are both taking 15 credits this semester and on top of the Eric works three days a week, so I don't get to see him as much as I'd like to :( Eric is in the Accounting Society on campus, actually he is the head of the Advertising Committee and he does such a great job with it. Eric is loving his classes but they are very time consuming, most nights he is up until 2am just doing a homework assignment. I am so proud of him and grateful that he is such a hard worker. I am doing mostly online classes (except one which is on campus) and let me tell you-online classes are much more difficult then being on campus; it is very hard to try and get ahead to be prepared for Mason's arrival when there are 20 plus items due every single week. Mason is seeming to grow very well and he still remains very active-which to my demise means by rib cage is just his jungle gym and I feel like the bruises on my ribs will never go away. I might be getting induced (because of finals being so close to Mason's due date) the doctor said that would not be a problem, but we would talk about it as it gets closer-hopefully this Friday!!!! Currently Eric and I are watching my mother in laws dog...it is very different. We thought the dog would be very calm and relaxed (because she is like that at mom's house) but oh no she has showed a different side to her completely! She runs around all the time, barking at nothing, peeing/pooping on our carpet, and waking up at 4am! She seems to be getting better though and I think we might have trained her a little better, because she lets us know when she has to go outside to do "her business".  Well, that is pretty much our lives right now: always busy, stressed, trying to get ready for Mason, and stressed :) but we are loving life and so happy that it is starting to warm up!!!

May 17

As some may know my father passed away when I was right years old on Aug. 16, 1999. This past Tuesday would have been his 44th birthday. Words cannot describe how much I miss him and how much I wish he could be here. I wish that he could have meet Eric because I know that they would've gotten along so well! I love you and miss you daddy!

Ice Fishing

We went ice fishing today...my first time ice fishing.  In total we caught 14 fish in about an hour: 7 white fish and 7 trout. I caught three of those 14 =) two trout and one white fish. Eric caught two white fish, and Dad Peterson caught the rest. It was a blast and I can't wait to go again!

JULIAN SMITH - I'm Reading a Book

BABY BOY!

So, it is probably no surprise to anyone by now (because of Facebook etc) but we are having a baby boy! I really am sooo excited! At first I was a little disappointed because all the visions of princess, dresses, flowers, and huge bows left. Now I am way excited for cuddly mommas boy, and trucks, and just a rough and tumble little guy! Mommy and Daddy cannot wait to meet you little Mason LaMont Peterson! We feel so blessed to have you become part of our family; all I can hope and pray for now is that we will be the best parents we can be for you, and hopefully not embarrass you too much ;)

Little update

OK so Eric and I are now back in school (finally)!!!!!! We have been looking forward to coming back for months. Now that we are here....we've moved into an amazing apartment and have made it homey! I promise to post pictures as soon as I can. We have also been to classes and have dropped some and have changed some things. Eric is now an Accounting major and he is minoring in....CIT! Our little nerd how cute <3 he is so very enthusiastic about it though and is loving it so far. As for me I am very stressed by my classes, but very excited because I am getting into some of my education classes and am just so thrilled and cant wait to be a teacher. Our classes are very hard though and we are very stressed....this will be one interesting semester!
