Seth Charles Schmidgal

I can't begin to show how grateful we are for the wonderful blessings in our lives lately, and how thankful we are for another sweet baby. On Jan. 17th, Seth Charles came into the world. 6 pounds, 14oz., 19.5 inches, he is so sweet and fits right in. Chad was even allowed to deliver him, we couldn't be happier.
Now on to the next big adventure, moving to San Antonio in the next few weeks........















The kids love their new brother, always trying to help and shower him with kisses and hugs

























































Chad should defiantly get extra credit for this.











Ethan is really getting into watching the Steelers' games with his dad. He jumps around, waving his terrible towel, shouting at the t.v., its so cute.





The kids loved shooting off fireworks this year for New Years, in fact the next night we had to go out and buy a few more.

Catching up

We have too many pictures to share, lots of good times and family fun. Ethan turned 2, had his third ear surgery, and has been basically all over the place. Alivia has finished out her semester at school with lots of parties, field trips, and playing around. Chad is finally home for a little while, one semester down as well, we are so proud of him and all he is working towards. Plus new baby is due any minute now, we are finally going to move to San Antonio, and lots of adventures ahead.

We were lucky enough to go on two field trips this last week with the Spark program, the first was to a nature park in the area and go on a guided ranger tour to see how pioneers and Indians lived.
