City Museum

We had a great time at City Museum with Ben's cousins and Bubba & Grampy. Wow, that place would be EASY to get lost in!!

Box...

Ben is having a great time with his cousins this weekend. They went to a pumpkin patch, had movie night with pizza, went to Grants Farm for a Halloween party and today we're headed to City Museum. A.K.A. - Camp Bubba & Grampy (thanks, guys!)!

They also ALL had a great time with the big box from our new air conditioner. Charlie was a magician having Ben and A.J. pop out of the box at different times. That's it, EVERYONE is getting large boxes for Christmas.

Man with Gloves

Ben drew this yesterday... when I asked him to tell me about it he said it was a man with gloves so his hands won't get cold. Hmm, makes sense to me!

Tickets, please!

The day was finally here - Ben got to ride Amtrak with Bebe & Grandad!! He had quite the send off - Joe & I along with Bubba & Grampy were at the train station to see them off...

Ben even wore his favorite train shirt...

Grampy's pie was big as Ben's head!

Ben and his crew! How lucky is he?

It was one of those awesome days I'll never forget!

Ben & Maggie

A few weeks ago Ben & I had F-U-N watching baby Maggie all day... Ben took very good care of Mags. He helped her find toys to play with, shared his exersaucer from when he was a baby and made sure she was happy at all times. She does a lot of LOUD babbling - seriously, she's really, really loud - it's hysterical... and while Ben was in his room *napping* he heard her talking and wanted to be sure "everything was okay with baby Maggie." They're pretty cute cousins!

Arch-

Ben has been extremely interested in the Arch - when we drive near it or see it on TV while watching a ball game... So, we headed on the MetroLink and had a picnic under the Arch.

Messy Play Day

Baby Abbie loved climbing the slide!

Dillon really liked the bowl of spaghetti!

We hosted a messy play day/picnic in our backyard... it was a lot of fun and the weather was awesome. We had paint, spaghetti, bubbles, shaving cream, etc. and the boys (+ Abbie) seemed to have fun with everything. We just LOVE our playgroup friends!!
