What is love???

At Ben's school they were learning about what it means to be a good friend and what love is. While I was dropping Ben off at school the other day, I noticed this giant heart hanging in the hallway and saw Ben's sweet answer. Pretty cute!

Miss Stripes

Happy #5!

Ben decorating his birthday cake - with sprinkles, black icing and red hots.

More Star Wars!!


Ben had a nice little party at home this year with cake, ice cream and presents. He has been very excited for his birthday and to be "five like A.J." This year Ben got lots of Star Wars items, a Lego alarm clock, paint-by-numbers, Sponge Bob PJs and Super Mario Sports Wii game. He seems so big and grown up - a lot of it has to do with seeing baby Nora and how small she is, but turning five is definitely a milestone. We love you big guy!!

A real bath-


At Nora's first doctor's appointment she decided to lose her belly button cord so we got to give her a real bath. Very exciting and exhausting for Nora. At the doctor we also learned that she gained weight... 8 lbs. 4 oz. he even put her on the scale again to be sure because she had gained so much. Yahoo, we have a good little nurser and a pretty laid-back little girl.
