Christmas Weekend

Christmas Eve started out at Connect for our Christmas eve service in the ice and snow! It was wonderful we went to my aunts that evening. Christmas morning we had to video Ben seeing his Santa gifts it was super special. He loved his car and the tool Bench!We then went to Grandpa and Honey's then ended the day at Uncle Bubba's. We got some wonderful gifts as always! Ben got a lot of musical intruments (thanks Grandpa and Honey :)) They also gave Ben a sweet Book that was my daddy's voice reading to him. I loved that one! It was all so wonderful!!!! We made Jesus' Birthday cake Sat but I don't think Jesus minded!!
Sunday we ended the weekend with my daddy's retirement party from the Fort Worth Fire Dept. after 33 years! It was pretty emotional at one point and I was so proud of my daddy! My cousins on my mom's side came they still consider my daddy their uncle so that was very sweet!

Oh and a big milestone... Christmas eve (at church) was the lastime Ben had his passy! Day 3 Down!!!! I think we are done with passy and Mommy is extra excited! Ben is 2 years old (26 months almost)











Beautiful White Christmas! Ben did not know what to think!

Merry Christmas Eve

Just wanted to share! He has gotten so big in 1 year! Hope you all have a Wonderful Christmas! Happy Birthday Jesus!!

All dressed in his "snuggly wuggly" I love this child even when I wake up to his finger in my nose! DS!!! Eventhough the Cowboys lost we still support them!

TyTy's Work

I know I know this makes me sick but the more we told him to stop the more he did it! I am always grossed out when he plays on this stuff! but it was funny and sick at the same time! I am sure he will be sick tomorrow! ugh!


Second year...still screaming my poor baby!
Ben loves his Aunt TyTy
Tonight we went to see Aunt TyTy at work. We got to see santa and once again Ben was so scared! We taught Ben to say HoHoHo and kept saying "Santa will be there" Yah that did not work! So we will try again next year! Then we went to grab a bite and let Ben play! It was a good night with Nana!

Church

So we got up Sunday morning and got ready for Church signed Ben into Sunday School and dropped him off as we have done before and Ben cried and cried. So I was trying to be the strong mom and stand in the hallway till I heard "ahh look at the baby boy crying" I said "yah that's mine" so we tried "Big Church" that lasted about one song and he was trying to move the chairs around. Ughhh so we missed church :( He has never done that before...scares me on how he will do when he starts school!

2 yr Dr Appt

I took the morning off to take Benjamin to his 2 year appt. Josh usually takes him but this was one for mommy. My daddy met us there because he was going to take Ben with him and Honey today to his house in Alvarado. I got there early thinking they would take us back early! yah not so much! Appt was at 8:30 we went back around 9pm but that was ok I love my Dr and she is worth the wait. Ben did great he cried a little when Dr Hull was pressing on him but not during his 1 shot (whohoo only 1) I think because he had a sucker in his mouth! She asked questions like: Does he climb? Yes-Does he pretend? Yes -Does he stack blocks? Yes- Ben had a lot of bruising on his legs (looks like a leopard)which of course I was scared thinking they would think we abused our little boy, but she said it was pretty normal for a busy boy! Which he is!!!!! He still has his umbilical cord hernia and she said when he turns 3 if he still has it then we will have to see a surgeon which I PRAY that does not happen but it scares me because it has not really changed in a year. So we will just add that to our prayers! All in all Benjamin looks Great she said! He is a little hefty but healthy which we knew!:) I feel he does not eat a lot anymore. He eats a lot of fruit and chz (he is obsessed with cheese) But we are now going to 2% milk so we will see! When he saw Dr hull was leaving he waived bye bye and blew her a kiss (not on command :)) So she thought that was funny and sweet so she then had to get her a big fat smack on the lips. We love her so much and are so thankful for her! Here are a few pics with my phone I forgot the camera!Top pic with water eyes and Dr Hull makes me sad! But he was good 1 minute later :( the others are playing with grandpa who he loves. His eyes lit up and a big smile appeared when he saw him walk into the waiting room! :)

Oh and his measurements:

Weight: 35.2 lbs 97th Percentile
Height: 35'4" 75th Percentile
Head: 19 1/4" 60th Percentile
