A little of this...and a little of that


Last week, Ben got a package in the mail from my parents. It had lots of treats and Sarge from Cars. Ben was so excited to open it up and has been devouring his treats ever since! He loved the candy hearts. He would have eaten them all in one sitting, but somehow we made them last two days.

We decided on Friday night that we would put Ben in his toddler bed this weekend. We're going to get him a twin bed in a few months, but thought it might be good for him to try out a bed closer to the floor first. Since we had the toddler bed already, Curt got it out of the attic and put it together last night. Ben was so excited to try it out today!

After we put it together, he laid on his pillow to see if it passed the test. I tried to put less animals on his bed, but he just kept adding more on. He loves to sleep with his "buddies." Ben was a little nervous for his nap, but I sat with him for a little bit until he was comfortable. Hopefully he will be able to sleep well tonight too!

Here's our first attempt at using the timer on our camera to get us all in a picture. Not the best, but it could be worse. :)

Enjoying December

I'm glad we had time to make sugar cookies together. Christmastime does not seem complete without them. I frosted the cookies while Ben and Curt decorated.  Lots of sprinkles and chocolate chips!  Ben loved getting slippers and a robe with his "Christmas Eve" jammies. He does love to be cozy. We decided to move up our present opening a day early because we thought I might end up in the hospital on Christmas. But, today is the 27th and still no baby. So we were a bit off on that one.  Santa brought the Lewis Hamilton car that Ben had asked him for. He was very excited!  The new pirate ship has been a favorite. He has played with it a TON a last few days.  Ben also got a few more pirate dress-up things. I've heard "Aarg!" a lot lately. :)  My parents came yesterday for a visit since my dad has this week off of work. We're hoping that I'll have the baby while they are here, but I'm not sure that is going to happen since they head home tomorrow. Ben ...

The Big 3-0!

Today I turned 30 years old. I didn't think that it would make me feel old, but it kinda does. :) I had a wonderful birthday. Curt went out and got us donuts for breakfast. Then, I got to open my presents. He did a great job shopping and I love everything he picked out! For lunch we went out to Olive Garden and then stopped by the mall for a little while. We spent the rest of the afternoon relaxing at home. I hope this getting older doesn't mean that gray hairs are going to start showing up! While I got ready this morning, Curt got out his old car track. He hasn't used it in many years, so he wasn't sure if it would work. Ben loved watching the cars race around the track. We enjoyed eating lunch at Olive Garden. Ben was too interested in coloring to look up at the camera. I love cheesecake for my birthday and Curt made this one for me all by himself. It is a chocolate chip recipe that is one of my favorites. He only added one candle per decade...we didn't ...
