January

Here are the highlights from January.

Luke still loves his Star Wars legos. But I think he's starting to like Harry Potter legos just as much.

Hailey loves to sit at the bar with the big kids now. No more highchair, which is actually the first time in over 6 1/2 years that there hasn't been a baby occupying it.

The kids love cream of wheat with food coloring. 

The most exciting event in January was even more exciting this year.... Ben hit the big 3-0! We (the kids) had so many ideas for the cake, they couldn't make up their mind. But finally we narrowed it down to a Chargers bolt, sprinkles on the sides and in the bolt, one heart from each of us, so he knows we love him, and of course happy birthday written on. Which sadly, had to be done in yellow frosting, since the kids used up all the other food coloring on their cereal.

We made dinner, cake and ice cream, and Ben's parents stayed with the kids so Ben and I could go to a movie.

 Abigail fashioned a sling all by herself for her baby to be carried in.

Ab is growing up too fast. She's constantly asking when she can be her own boss, when she'll have her own little baby girls, and when she will get to be the same age as me.

This girl is probably going to be even more girlie than Abigail... which I never would have thought possible. She is constantly wearing dresses, combing her hair, and spraying perfume.

I love spending all day everyday with these sweet kids!
