My little...

...Pillsbury dough boy. Here's Ben enjoying spaghetti and breadsticks for lunch today!

What do you do...

... with a Scurvy Pirate?

MAKE THEM WALK THE PLANK!

Gerritt let me get out for a couple of hours this evening with my sweet sister-in-law. This is what I found them doing when I got home. They were playing Pirates, and making everyone walk the plank.

ARRRR!!

Just another day...

...in paradise! Ben loves to read books. Or eat them, you decide. Oh, by the way, I love that I can blog from my phone now. Maybe I'll be better now about keeping up.

TGIF!

Happy Friday! Hello spring break!

I feel....

like I'm always playing catch-up.  Life just seems to be spinning out of control  faster than it used to.

So here's a quick update:

Though Ben is almost 6 months old, here he is at 5 months.



As of a couple days ago he is crawling all over the place!

We had a white Thanksgiving! A first for me since moving to the Seattle area.

Abby and Gerritt had so much fun building this snowman.

We hope everyone is enjoying their holiday season!
