Wow

Two months? Really? That's how long it's been since I posted?!?

Sorry blog readers.

I have noticed that because we don't have internet at our house it requires a lot more effort to plan out writing a blog instead of just sitting down and writing when I get the inclination. So. What have we been up to?

Driving around Texas from Robinson, to Dallas to Houston to College Station to La Grange to Austin... you get the idea. We had a great time looking (and yes taking pictures) in the Bluebonnets. We were so excited to meet our little nephew Jaxson. The zoos in all major cities have been a big hit. We have been in a wedding and Benjamin made his wedding debut as a ring bearer. He did surprisingly well for a two-year-old.

And now we are here in Dallas as our little princess recovers from her double hip and left knee surgery. Such a little trooper. She has all the nurses wrapped around her band-aid clad finger. We are hoping to be discharged this afternoon/evening, but we are waiting for Abby to take food in and "send food out". Any minute now we hope!

Well, that was life in a nutshell. Hopefully I will be more diligent about posting in the future.

:o)

Snow Day

Brother and Sister

Seriously Mom, This Bib is Cool!

Abigail has started eating rice cereal and she seems to like it quite a bit, unlike Benjamin who was not a fan. Pictures from the first attempt- she was MUCH more interested in the bib...

Snickerdoodles

The weather has made it difficult to go outside this past week, so I decided we should make some cookies. Snicker-doodles sounded fun since Benjamin could roll the cookies in cinnamon-sugar.

Ready to roll

Trying a taste of the cinnamon-sugar

Finished cookies

Yummy!

"Washing" dishes

Dancing with Sesame Street

Really cute video of Benjamin dancing. Well, sort of, but it is really cute.

Cousins

Just wanted to share this picture of Benjamin with his cousin Colton at Thanksgiving. Benjamin LOVES his cousin and constantly asks for him and follows him like a shadow when he is around. It is quite sweet actually, don't you think?
