Soon!

I will be back, Soon! I promise!  To any friends and family that still check in here, I will be posting regularly again soon. There are a number of reasons and excuses I could list, but I am not going to! Just know that Ben and Clara are doing great and I will be sharing their fun antics with you all again soon! Next week is the goal! Love to all!

Carrot snapper?

Nope, He is a carrot dipper!

Hair today, gone tomorrow!

This is a pretty good shot of just how long Ben's Hair had gotten during the winter!I didn't realize until it started to get a little warm and he was MELTING! So, I thought I would trim it. This is the first round. Yup, it was that long and I cut it that much! Then I trimmed it up just a little more so it would be off his neck, it looked like this.Then I decided it needed to come up A LOT. The poor kids was sweating to death and it was barely getting to 80! (though this week it is barely reaching 60!)

I brought it up to the hair line and tried to just blend it. It ended up looking a little odd around the ears.... So, I made one last attempt before I was going to break down and take him to the barber. It turned out pretty okay I think. I have some better pictures of each stage but they are on my Ipod touch and I can't get them off!! These will, therefore, have to do.He looks a little rough, he was not in the mood for pictures, he was playing in the bath tub! Ha!

And I am happy to report that it still curls!!!

Yard Work

At the first sign of sunshine Ben insisted on getting out into the yard! He found Daddy's wheel barrow and went right to work. I took this video from the kitchen window. I was afraid if I opened the door it would disrupt him!

The Three F's of Life

I am introducing a new blog!! It is called Food, Friends, and Family! the three F's of life! I am hoping this will be authored by many friends and family! It is going to be a forum to swap recipes and other healthy lifestyle information and support! The three F's are the things we cannot live with out and that for most of us our lives revolve around!! So here is your chance, they say we are what we eat, to find out what we are all made of!!

Good Morning, Good Morning!

Yup, I have passed on my love for mornings! This is how a typical day at our house begins!

Sippy Cups full of milk, cereal, and a movie.

Any given weekday!

FHE Fish

One of our family goals for this year is to get all 52 Family Home Evenings!! I made a chart and we started. We set a goal that if we made every week from the first of January to the end of February we would get some fish, FHE Fish. Well, we met this goal!! This is the home we set up for the fishies. This is our trip to Pet Smart.

And this is Skippyjon Jones and Bobbilito!

The boy has OCD I am afraid. His cars sleep with him and they do it neatly!!

What goes up....

Must come down, right? Well, you would hope so, but at this point she can get up, but she can't get down!

Because I am going back to catch up the last couple months I am going to be putting dates at the bottom of these posts, then when I finally get around to getting by blog printed it will be a more accurate time stamp.
