Ben Photo Shoot

Hi Ben! Up close

Smile?

Photo shoot over... I get it

Ben Burdick!...

it has a ring to it... doesn't it!

And what a sweet little baby he is!

Daddy and his boys!

And what a great daddy they have! And what good men they will become with their daddy's godly influence! When I look at these pictures I see hundreds and hundreds of soccer games, hockey games, baseball games, pillow fights, wrestling matches... (My only rule is I can't be underneath the pillow fight/ wrestling match... how does that always happen?) I have decided since I have boys that I am really going to learn to like what they like. Truth be told naturally I lean more towards sewing, scrapbooking, do anything involving crafting, planting flowers, shopping... I am really going to get into whatever the boys get into. For instance if they are really into soccer, I am going to learn all about soccer (I actually have no idea about most anything in soccer... I know you're supposed to kick it in the goal...) You know, whose in the World Cup (one more soccer fact I know!) who are the good teams, positions etc. I don't want to just support them in what they like, I want to really like it and be excited about it too. So, I am excited to see what new horizons await!

Our first family photo

Crazy kid

Sweet Benjamin!!

Sleeping soundly! Smiling, in sleep

Laughing, in sleep

Cuddling with daddy!!!

Benjamin really is a super sweet baby. He loves to be cuddled and only cries when he needs/ wants something. He loves just to be with you!

We went to Ben's 2 week appointment today, and he is doing wonderful!

For you number people, I am a number people :)

At 2 weeks Jadon was 7 pounds 3 ounces 19 3/4 inches

At 2 weeks Ben is 8 pounds 20 inches

I think the eldest is always the smaller, payback I guess!

It looks like this apple won't fall to far from his tree. This morning Jadon put on daddy's running gloves and a beannie and started running sprints in the living room.

Ben + the chair

Our sweet little angel is doing so well. He crashed in Jadon's old sesame street chair while we ate dinner tonight.

An Afternoon In the Backyard

With such warm weather and a sunny day, we were able to get out into the backyard and have some outside fun.

Jadon played in his sandbox...

...and played with bubbles...

...and tried to eat the bubbles.

And after all that playing, he got some RnR in his lawn chair...

...while dad blew bubbles.
