Our family...Ben and I sure look festive!
Our monkey.
Bentley's cousins Brock and Brody. They are transformers!
Here is Bentley's friend, Ava completely engulfed by her super cute horse costume!
Bentley's cousin Ryan he's a tiger!
The whole crew getting ready to be pulled by the 4 wheeler. So cute it was tons of fun.
Cute little monkey.
This house went all out it was pretty cool! It was a really fun Halloween. Can't wait for next year!
Bentley's first Halloween 2007.
Look at him grow in a year. 2008 Elisa made these costumes too cute Bentley and Ava. He's going to be a monkey this year. It'll be a cold one tonight but he'll really have fun this year!
We had lot's of fun at this pumpkin patch right close to our house. It was freezing cold but we braved the weather, bundled up and enjoyed a ride from the tractor.
Since its the end of the season the farm sent us home with 5 big punkins(as Bentley would say).
Hmmm? He got that from his Opa.
First we went last Sunday with Ben. ( see how much weight he's lost! 32 pounds)
Little munchkin, you just want to give him tons of kissses!
Then we brought them dinner Thursday. Their was alot of us but I guess that's what happens when a new family member is born we all want to come visit. Sorry guys we'll have to spread out next time! Thanks for letting us come!
Bentley and Ryan just love him but they leave him alone thank goodness.
I think he could tell the flash went off look at his eyebrow's! I love him!!!!
I have finally moved Bentley from a crib to a big boy bed, YEAH! This was Ben's nephew's bed and then they gave it to us! So yesterday I decided today's the day. Ben was at work so I called his brother and Elisa's husband took a lunch and they moved it. Thanks guys!
He went right into it perfect! Not a problem at all. It seriously was such an easy adjustment and I'm so glad we made the change. Bentley told me "My new bed, I wike it!"
Charlie got her hair done. So cute Charlie bear!
The most exciting news is little Diego is finally coming tomorrow sometime! Irene you will be just fine! The unexpected is what is the scariest. I was induced and I remember pulling up and telling Ben uh can we go home? Once you get in there you just go with the flow. You'll fill out some paper work, then they take you to your room, you change, then you get all hooked up with IV's and all, then they might break your water, then comes the epidural which I don't remember hurting at all, then you wait to push! Sounds pretty simple right? I just want to reassure you that you'll be just fine girl! Can't wait to meet him!!!
Uncle Mike you are one of Bentley's favorites! You will be such an awesome Daddy! Love you!
So I've been meaning to take some pictures of Bentley for his 2 yr. pic's and I finally did it. I took him down 25th Street in Ogden and took them myself. Is was kind've fun to figure out ways to get him to look at me. I would say Bentley is their a bird on my head? He would look and I would shoot. We had fun. These are some of my favorites. Love him!So Bentley is really starting to say alot and he's putting thing's together really well. Anyways he instigated a really cute little conversation today. I had just fixed him waffles so I like to sit and visit with him while we eat. Here's how it went......
Bentley- Daddy's at work?
Mommy- Yes Daddy's at work.
Bentley- Oh. Daddy gave me a hug!
Mommy- Yeah Daddy gave you a hug this morning.
Bentley- Yeah Daddy's nice.(When he says nice he stretches the C out. It sound's so cute.)
Mommy- Yeah Daddy's nice.
Bentley- Yeah Daddy's nice and Mike's nice. Then we went through who he thinks is nice.
We had such a sweet conversation and I really cherished it. Then a little after that he almost ruined my washer by putting a glass vase in the middle of a load and yes it broke all in pieces with a few other thing's he threw in there but all is well, all was cleaned up and our sweet little conversation out weighs the constant mischievousness. I LOVE HIM!
Yes he now has 31 gray hairs! Wow he was 23 when we met. Where did all the years go? He sure doesn't look 31!:)
We woke up at 6:15 thanks to a cutie named Bentley so we got ready and headed to breakfast. Then we went bowling with Steve and Elisa and the kid's. It really was alot of fun. I think the kiddo's liked the arcade better than bowling. They were cute though Bentley gave me a couple of really big woooo's and clapping when he would knock down the pins. Fun times. Happy Birthday Sweetie and I love you! Its weird thinking next year we'll have no idea where we'll celebrate his next birthday. I'll keep ya posted!
Bentley is getting driving lessons early! He really has gotten so good.
The jeep stays at Grandma and Papa's so when we go their on Sunday's its all he wants to do.
And he loves to take Charlie with him. Too funny:)
He still hates having his picture taken, but he still looks cute:)
Mom and Dad this shot is gorgeous!
Cousins.
Heidi, Brandon and Maddox.
Oh someone's trying to eat his toes!
Cute grandkid's.
The only decent family shot we got. Bentley did not want to be there.
Mike and Ire and Diego.
Aren't we cute girls?
The outlaws.... Mom thought that was a cute idea! These were taken a while ago and were taken on a tripod by me! More than half the shoot I didn't even have my flash on oh well live and learn! May I add no editing has been done these are the originals so before any printing I'll have to do some cropping snd stuff!
As any 2 yr old Bentley loves the ducks! We go to the bread factory and buy really cheap bread. Then of course we come to feed them. The ducks love us!
He throws one he eats one. He eats almost as much as the ducks get! Yeah the bread kind've has a stale taste to it ( yes i tasted it, I was thinking it was like really good because he kept on eating it)but no not good, soft but stale.
His other favorite part is chasing the ducks. He loves it! I just get nervous when he runs down the hill I would hate for him to fall in. Yuck..
Our hour with the ducks is great I enjoy it and Bentley does too. I need to stay up on my blogging. It just hasn't been a priority, but for everyone that doesn't get to see us everyday I know its important to them and to keep a little journal.
