Benjamin Boo is Two!

Posing with his presents so artfully wrapped by his Aunt Rosie


Most of the kiddos at his birthday party having cake (the folding table and chairs set was a gift from Grandma Debbie)


The Thomas the Train cake that Rose decorated all by herself! And everyone thought was store bought!

We had a little party for Ben while my sister was here visiting. It was a small gathering of people but with parent and kids the house filled up quick! It was fun though. With my sister's help we made a Mexican feast - so yummy!
There will be more pictures to come - my photo editor is messed up so I have to wait until it gets fixed.

Noah is 4 months old!

Noah posing nakey :)


Just for comparison...Ben at 4 months...same chair!


He just recently found his feet and loves to grab them!


They are so sweet :)

Noah is becoming quite the talker lately. He is actually pretty loud and especially likes to talk when he pulls his paci out of his mouth, sometimes at 5am! He is sleeping through the night but not taking very long naps. But Ben didn't sleep through the night at this age and didn't take long naps either so I'll take what I can get! We go to the doctor for Ben's 2yr and Noah's 4 month next week so we will have stats then!

Photoshoot Time!

I took these pictures about 3 weeks ago...I guess I forgot to post them on here! Things just slip my mind... It was hard getting Ben to cooperate and Noah not to cry but there were a few cute ones :)

The Family

Our most recent picture... we had to bribe Ben with food so he's got a mouthful in this picture but it was the best out of the bunch!

"Boose"

New moose slippers from Granma Cathie


Excuse me, "boose" not moose :)

Science through Toys exhibit at the new museum

Ben's favorite exhibit... the race car


"Fishing" with his buddy Mallory!


Me and my boys




Climbing the stairs to the kid house

We went to the new museum to check out this exhibit with our friends Cassandra and her daughter Mallory. It was really fun. We are excited to go back with Brent next time so he can play more with Ben and the toys!

Wildlife Sightings...

The "pond" next to our house...


Moose checking out Brent's new shed


Bear on the side of the road


Taking pictures from the car... he actually started to walk towards the car...brave bear!

In a period of about 2 weeks we saw 12 moose total on our property. Strange since before that I'd never seen any moose at our house! One was a group of 5 with a young bull moose calling to a cow because it's mating season...apparently his rack wasn't big enough for her and she just put him off - kind of funny!
