"Tried to run to the grocery store really quick before naps. Eli didn't wake up when I got him out of the car. He slept in the grocery cart the whole time!"

For real

Eli has a fierce army crawl that he has perfected for months now. But yesterday he actually crawled with real crawling moves!!

Sorry blog

I wish I was one of those people that jourals everything and keeps track of stuff.  Especially since I have a horrible memory.  But I'm not and my memory still stinks.  So while I wish I had documented our crazy life the last several months oh well.  So here is where we finally are.  We have been in the new house for almost a month.  YAY!!  Still unpacking and organizing the new house.  But it is so nice to have more space and be in.  Our builder bought our old house as it did not sell before this one was done.  A blessing that we had that option and we are so thankful.  I know everyone wants pictures of the house and I will try to take some more and get them posted.  I have been so caught up in trying to get the house unpacked that pictures has been the last thing on my mind. 

We are taking a super hard Advanced Corporate Finance class.  Our midterm is next week.  So I should be studying but yet I'm blogging! hehehe 

The kids are growing as always.  I realized today that my header was from when Ben was about the age that Eli is now.  So I added the one from my sister in laws wedding, but I think a new family picture is sorely needed!

And now we head into our crazy time.....  My birthday is the 14th (the big 3-0 this year), then Ben is the 20th, Thanksgiving, Eli the 29th, then Christmas, James is Dec 30th, and then Sariah is Jan 7th.  Let the fun begin!!  (And yes we obivously stink at family planning!)

Ben

Ben has become much more talkative lately. Normally he was happy to let sissy or someone else talk for him. But now he's become a little chatter box.

Some funny things he says.

I too busy. (when asked to do something)
Or... In a minute.

Today I got new pink slippers. Ben looked at them and said "you have cute shoes mom"

This morning he told me, "mommy your hair is messy. You should go brush it."

And we saw a mummy at the store. One of those blow up lawn pieces. In trying to tell him the difference between mummy and mommy I sounded it out really slow. So now he says "we saw a mmmmmmmommy at the store"

He is so stinking cute sometimes.

Today I took the kids to the library and the grocery store while James worked on his paper for school.

At the library, Ben bee-lined for the kids' computer. It is seriously his favorite thing. And how cute is he with those big headphones. Looks just like daddy.

Naptime snuggles

Ben often wakes up from his naps but isn't really awake yet. So I love when he climbs up with me and goes back to sleep.

I know there will come a day where snuggling with mom won't happen anymore. So thankful today isn't that day.
