Another week of memories!

This week was fun. The most eventful part was rushing Bennett up to the emergency room on Saturday night. He apparently has croup. It came on so quickly that it worried us and so we just played it safe and had him checked out. They gave him some steroids to help open his airways. I told him he will now end up bigger than his brother. I think they might have curse of the small genes. Bennett was weighed last night and in his jammies he weighed 17 lb 6 oz. We were expecting around 20. They have been eating like little pigs lately. They consistently eat more than Taylor does and I think often come close to the daddy portion.

Donations for food will be accepted. cash will also not be turned away. We are going to have to move to the country and buy a cow and some chickens when these boys really start eating. I just can't figure out where they get their love for eating.

Carin and I have begun to realize a resemblance between Mater the Cars Character and John. He has thus temporarily earned the honorary nickname Mater.


John and Bennett have been learning to brush their own teeth this week. John is just interested in showing the camera how his can also function as a sword.

Bennett's reaction after being told he had eaten all the food in the house and that there was no more.

Taylor loves to get up and go out to get the newspapers. She scampers out and dances her way back. It's one of those things i will always reference in my memory of fun things Taylor did when she was 3. Who needs a dog?


Fun times in the bathtub. I think we should have painted the walls with a special swimming pool paint. The boys love to splash.

John was introduced to balloons and has since become their biggest fan. This is what he does when you ask where the balloons are and there happens to be two in the room.


Our little princess. She loves to dress up and turn on the radio and dance. This was apparently country music. She may just grow up and be a rodeo princess...or....follow in her mommy's footsteps and go the dairy princess route!
