First day....

...of preschool! Abby started preschool today. She is in the ECE program at our local elementary school.

Cute as a button getting ready for school.

The morning started out a little rough. Abby cried when I left her in class, but her teachers said she did fine the rest of the day.

Happy as a clam at the end of the day!

The "C" Pillow

Abby is always claiming the boppy as her "C" pillow. Well, I finally got sick of her stealing it when I needed to feed Ben. So, I made her her very own "C" pillow. She loves it and has it with her almost always. My hate/hate relationship with the sewing machine is getting to be more amicable.

And not to be left out......her is Ben enjoying his "C" pillow!

My Boys

I caught these cute shots while testing out a new photo backdrop. Aren't my boys so cute handsome?

Look at those baby blues!

Baby Blessings....

We blessed Ben on Sunday July 25th. We had a lot of family that came into town to celebrate with us!

Ben was blessed in the same onesie that Gerritt was blessed in. (I'm so glad we didn't wait much longer to bless him because I almost couldn't squeeze him into the onesie.)

What a handsome little guy!

Here's Ben's Uncle Alan and cousin Lucas. Lucas is only 6 months older than Ben. I'm sure they'll be great friends! (and get into a lot of trouble together.) 

Here's Ben with his Uncle Brad and Aunt Erin. Ben really likes his new to the family Uncle.

In other news....Abby is really warming up to Ben. (I admit, I was worried for awhile.) She is always wanting to hold "baby brudder" and kiss him and help. It's really cute when she tries to get him to stop crying by shoving the pacifier in his mouth.  Ben just LOVES Abby. She can make him smile and coo better than anyone else!  I just love my kids!

Game Farm Park

A couple Saturdays ago we really needed to get out of the house. It was a beautiful day outside so we went to the park.  We hiked walked along the White River. Abby had so much fun, and Ben slept in the baby sling.
