February Update!

Ben is 6 months old (almost 7 because I am a slow blogger) I can't believe it's been half a year. We went to his 6 month check up and he is now not even in the 5% for weight, I told the doctor I promise I am trying but I think I have the world's worst eater, he would rather watch Sammy run around the house and suck on this toes!
Ben and Wynter on Valentines - pretty cute little cousins
Thanks to Hayley for watching Ben I finally got to go skiing!
I put these jammies on Ben and Danny told me he looked like Hugh Hefner or Santa Clause, I thought he looked cute
We got to tend Will and Drew for the weekend while Hayley and Josh were in Hawaii, I had to take a pictures of the cute little boys matching - good news all of the 4 nephews got these jackets last year so now Ben will eventually have one in every size as they get passed down!
Ben's new favorite thing is being chucked in the air (I hope this isn't damaging!). He gets so excited as Danny starts counting, 1-2-3!
Danny had to work in Ft Lauderdale for the week so Ben and I tagged along. I guess there are some perks to having a husband that travels all the time... sky miles and going with every once in a while!

ALOHA!

Ben was great on the plane but I swear those seats are much smaller then I remember!
We made it! I think Ben was happier then all of us to be out in the fresh air with no socks on

Family pictures, Cherie had a photographer come and take pictures of us, they turned out so cute and I am so happy she decided to do that

Nana and Popie with all their grandkids!




Whale watch - it was pretty amazing to see the whales up close and personal- they are huge!

about 20 or more dolphins were swimming along with the whales, they are so much fun to watch, they are show offs! They were slipping and jumping - lots of fun
I have never seen a kid love the water more then Ben. He loved the water, we would cry to get in and then he would just kick and kick

He also loved the grass and just being able to be outside!
Thanks Nana and Popie for an amazing trip! Memories to last a life time!

Wear your SPF!

I know it is the middle of the winter and the last thing you are thinking about is sunscreen but you might be thinking about the tanning bed, so word to the wise stay far away! This past summer my sister Sarah kept telling me I had a weird spot on my back. It didn't notice it and it didn't look anything like I would expect a cancer spot to look so I kinda forgot about it. Sarah, being the good sister she, is kept pestering me about it. I finally went in before Christmas to have it looked at and he they said it was probably pre-cancer, no problem. Well a couple weeks later I got a call from the doctor and sure enough it was cancer! Any one who has ever been to a sunny vacation spot with me probably isn't to surprised by this (I burn real easy). Well I went in and got it removed. The doctor said I was very lucky to have noticed it because this kind is unusual and spreads fast! So thanks to my nurse of a sister I am cancer free for now but will be wear SPF 50 for the rest of my life!

Merry Christmas

Our first Christmas Eve as a new little family
Christmas morning, Ben with all his presents!
Of all the years I have watches little kids open Christmas presents this was the best reaction I have ever seen, Halle's little face just lite up when she open up Elmo. He is pretty cute as well, I have already put in a request for Benjamin for next Christmas from the Grandparents.
A very happy Christmas morning at the Adam's house hold
Benjamin and Wynter getting their diapers changed
My dad got all the boys Utah State football uniforms with their names on the back. It was pretty cute, to bad Ben is to small, maybe next year.
He still enjoyed playing with the helmet
I got the bright idea to make matching PJ's for all my nieces and nephews for Christmas, 9 jammies later and everyone is happy!
Wynter wasn't to excited about her PJ's

time for an update!

My little bumbo boy! Danny gets so nervous when i put him in but i think he looks so cute!
my nephew Drew celebrated his 4th birthday and Big Blue got to come to the party.
it was priceless the look on Drew's face when Blue came walking in!
Benjamin got a new cousin - even better a cousin that lives about 2 miles away - Wynter Rose Adams born Nov 27. It made for quite an exciting Thanksgiving.
The best part about my 4 month old is the little personality that is coming out - honestly what could be cuter!
Getting ready to say his prayers!
We blessed Ben on Nov 1st. We had to keep putting it off to make sure everyone could be there, as you can see Ben didn't wait he just kept growing right out of his blessing outfit!
It turned out to be a beautiful day and it was great to be with friends and family

Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween! I use to make fun of my sister Hayley all the time for setting up portrait studios in her house and now I have to eat my words - cause now I do it!
Cute Madi and Halle came up from Salt Lake for some trick-or-treating! It was so much fun to see them, they both looked so stinking cute as Tinker Bell and Minnie Mouse.
Man I love this little girl, Grace Neil as Dorthy. I want to just squeeze those little cheeks!


Trick or Treating at Danny's work with Drew and Will. I think Ben is looking at Drew's costume thinking why couldn't I be Buzz!
Even Sammy got into the Halloween festivities!
Don't worry I know I should be sent to child's services for making Ben do this. I couldn't help myself, I thought it would be so cute, apparently he didn't think so!

Good Old Days!

Here we are only 4 short years ago and now we are all moms! Scary I know- poor kids!

All grown up or we at least hope so for the sack of the kids!
Chauri and me with our little guys! We had them 2 weeks to the minute apart from each other and we both came 3 1/2 weeks early! I wish that Chauri didn't live in Colorado, we could have some fun play dates!
Benjamin, Hannah and Briggs. Hannah is 13 months older then the boys
Ben has the height but Briggs has the chub! Poor little Ben is in the 5% for weight and the the 60% for height!
