Sean the Leprachaun

Every year when dyllan wakes up on St. Patricks day he finds out that our little freind sean the leprachaun was at our house. He is not a nice little man, he always leaves his foot prints all over the boys' doors and walls. This was benton's first attack from sean. He still doesn't really know he came. Sean did leave a couple of St. Patricks day books and a little bag of green goodies for both of the boys.

Noodle Boys

The other weekend we went to my moms for dinner and games. Patrick, Heidi, Garrison and Carson joined in the fun. For anyone who knows patrick they know that he cannot eat spaghetti without snorting a strand through his nose and caughing the other end out of his mouth. It makes me sick to watch. I want to throw up every time i see this. I dont think he will ever grow up. When we were kids he would torment me through the prayer and try to get me to laugh. Well during prayer at dinner this particular night (patrick now married with a baby) i peeked and he was trying to get heidi to laugh at prayer.... How disrespectful.

So heidi went upstairs to get dominoes for the game "Chicken Feet" really fun eveyone should learn the game. She dissapered twice for a half hour everytime she went up. We called it the abyss when she would go upstairs. We decided to decorate garrison with spaghetti noodles and not tell heidi. She still might not know that we did this to her sweet little boy until she reads my blog!

We finally had to take it away from him when he tried to eat the noodles.

Crazy Hair

So before we get his hair cut we have been trying out new hair styles. These are the two i like the best!

He is just too cute with this curly long hair. I have ran into a couple of people at random stores that love his hair and then i tell them i am cutting it and they tell me not to because of how cute it is.... Well, he is getting his hair cut next wednesday! However i told my cuz Mandy (she is doing me and bentons hair) not to bring the buzzer this is only for a trim! So it will still be long but just a little more cleaned up!

Silly littel boy!

Benton is such a funny little guy. He loves to sit on his rocking chair, sometimes just to give me a heart attack and other times to play with a toy or read a book. He loves books now and always has one during the day. I have started accumulating more of the harder books for babys so he doesnt destroy all of our other ones!

Here is the back of bentons hair now. I dont want to get rid of it. He may end up with a mullet after his hair cut is done, it is too hard to say right now!?

He was a total cheese ball. As soon as i took out the camera he started smiling and posing for me.

This was the funniest one because it was the first picture and i guess he was getting all of his nervouse jitters out before he let his good looks and personality shine! So earlier this evening we went to Maceys (Grocery not Department store) while dyllan was at his tutors. Well benton got some smarties at the register. He was in heaven. I gave him one at a time and he would take small bites one at a time and then eat the next one the same way. It was funny. Tonight he has been pumping iron (lifting weights just 1 lb i am a wussy and have to start with that) with daddy while i am posting this blog. It was really funny because he was grunting when he lifted and then this horrible smell came along. He either crapped his pants from lifting so much weight or it was just a fart from exertion. I will let adam find out......

In Loving Memory!

As all of our close freinds and family know, Pongo was getting to be a very old dog. He was 13 years old and his body was starting to show it. On Saturday the 21st of February Adam and I finally decided it was time to take pongo to the Vet. We knew something was wrong with him and after noticing a huge lump on his hip and knowing pongo was in pain we decided to do the right thing. The Vet took a biopsy and X-ray and found pongo had cancer that had eaten most of his muscle away and was very deep into his bone. He gave pongo 30 days of where he thought pongo was at and gave us the option of what we wanted to do. Knowing that the poor guy was in a lot of pain we decided to help pongo out and make him a happier dog. We all miss pongo very much and we will always have the pictures and memories of him. Benton still walks around and says pongo all of the time. We tell him he is in heaven and point to the sky, so benton points out side now and says pongo's name.

Geek!

This was actually a couple of months ago!(part of my slacker personality) Anyways benton loves these glasses. They are part of our halloween cosutmes and they really need to be put back in the box. For some reason they got left out and benton found them. Every time daddy put them on him he would laugh and laugh. Then he would put them on daddy and laugh and laugh. So since this was a couple of months ago and adam has just agreed to let me cut his hair, can you imagine how long it is now! It is up to me to get it cut now and i am stalling. I dont want to do it. But i am going to call my cuz mandy and have her do it. This will make it more sentimental to me to have her cut his hair. I will post pics maybe tomorrow of his hair now. Benton is sleeping and i have to work tonight so i had better go and take a nap as well!
