Two already?

Happy Birthday to our little man! It feels good that we already celebrated with him since today is a school day for Benjamin, early release, violin lesson, & mtg tonight. Here are a few more pictures from his little celebration. So, today, we'll slow down and enjoy our time with a little boy who's growing way too fast!





For comparison...here's Benjamin when he turned 2!

Labor Day!

2 years ago on Labor Day was one of the happiest days of our life...giving Benjamin a little brother. Our lives changed forever. We love our little boy so much and it is amazing to watch him change & grow every day.

We had a small birthday celebration yesterday. It was just right. Russell & I had so much fun decorating the cake together...nothing fancy or extravagent, but perfect for Trevin. He was delighted to have a train cake. Choo choo, let the fun begin...

Top Five

Top 5 for Benjamin at school is...

1. Eating in the cafeteria
2. Going to Spanish class & learning some new words
3. Meeting some "really nice boys"
4. PE! I played freeze tag
5. Meeting my new teacher


You can teach a student a lesson for a day; but if you can teach him to learn by creating curiosity, he will continue the learning process as long as he lives.Clay P. Bedford

Little Brother

Trevin didn't see Benjamin wearing his backpack on the first day of school. He didn't even go to school with us....however, he sure knew what was going on. After I returned home from school, this is what Trevin requested....that he wear his little backpack! It was so cute.
