A Day at the Park






We had so much fun today. I borrowed from Lauren Andrews idea of getting together at Floyd Lamb State Park. The weather was so nice. It was Carson's first picnic. I had such a great time visiting with everyone. A big thanks to the Stuarts, Andrews, Summers, Gearin, Tracey, and Miller families for joining in on the fun!

What is his name? Benjamin Aaron Juarez

How long have you been married? Almost 2 years

Who long did you date? 2 years! That's 10 in Mormon years. :)

How old is he? The big 30! He says he doesn't feel old, but I think he's in denial.

Who eats more sweets? Me, me, me. Ben hardly eats sweets, which makes me feel really guilty when I'm the only eating a big bowl of ice cream.

Who said I love you first? It was me, after approx 9 months of dating.

Who is taller? Ben, by one inch.

Who can sing better? I think Ben can sing better, the few times I've heard him. He doesn't like singing.

Who is smarter? I think we're a good match, but overall, Ben wins. His dad is a doctor and brothers: computer programmer, engineer, and pre-med student. Sometimes the conversations at their dinner table are about things I can't pronounce.

Who does the laundry? Me. But when it comes to ironing, Ben definitely wins.

Who pays the bills? Both

Who sleeps on the right side of the bed? Ben

Who mows the lawn? Sadly, no lawn.

Who cooks dinner? Always me. Once, Ben cooked a hot dog for me.

Who drives? Both. But I prefer Ben. He's a fleet safety trainer, and former valet parker.

Who is more stubborn? Him. Ben likes to prove his point.

Who kissed who first? He kissed me

Who asked who out first? He asked me

Who proposed? Him. He didn't propose, he told me that was going to marry me. It took him 8 months after that to formally ask me (which drove me crazy!!!).

Who has more siblings? I have 5. He has 3.

Who wears the pants? That would be me. Ben is the most easy going guy. That's one of the things I love about him.

Tagging... Jessica, Mary (if you haven't done this already), Tricia, my college friend Katie, and Kim.

My boys have left me

Sorry I haven't done any updates for over a month. Between work, taking care of Carson, trying to train for a half marathon (which for the most part is not happening) and trying to be somewhat of a decent wife, taking the time to update my blog just hasn't happened. Tonight is my first night without my little boy. My sister, Kim, who usually watches Carson on Thursdays, went up to Utah. I thought grandma and grandpa Stephenson and aunt Rachel and Audrey would love to have a day with Carson, so I agreed to let her take him with her. I can't believe how hard it is to not have him for just one day! What's worse, Ben left on a business trip to CA this morning and won't be back 'til Friday night. I miss my boys! Ben, is pretty much the greatest guy I have ever met. For those of you who don't know my husband, one of these days I'll have to fill you in. And then there is Carson, who is the perfect baby. He is always (mostly) so happy and sweet. Lately, he is trying to talk. He talks to us, to his blanket, his toys... it's really funny. PLUS, we discovered he is VERY ticklish. :) He's growing sooo fast!!!

Only one day left with him...

Happy Wednesday everyone! I took some pictures of Carson this morning. I only get one more day to share my mornings with Carson during the week days. I go back to work on Friday. As you can see from the pictures, his charm and good looks are going to make it REALLY hard for me! We have so much fun together. Hopefully, this going back to work thing will not be for very long.

Very funny!

My brother in law, Corey Miller, made this video after recording us playing a game of Guesstures. It's pretty funny.
