Family

We spent the last weekend at D's parents. All of the family was able to make it back, so we got to see our new nephew and everyone got to see Bentley. It was fun to have everyone together again, and to see how the family has grown. The house fills up quickly with this many people. However, there is lots of activity, laughter, and conversation that is priceless.

Grandpa made homemade ice cream that all the kids were enjoying.

The kitty that Bria named snowball this summer has gotten a lot bigger. Grandpa brought it inside for Bria to pet. She really loves animals.

Precious Little One

Bentley is growing very quickly. At her 1 month checkup she was 9 lbs. 2.5 oz. and 22 3/4 inches long. That checkup was already 2 weeks ago and I'm pretty sure she is now over 10 lbs.

She loves to lay on the ottoman in our living room and just look around. She has also started smiling at me, which I absolutely love.

After bath time. She doesn't seem to like her baths quite as much as Bria did, but they do seem to be getting better.

The Snow Is Here

Today we got some snow, enough to get a dusting. There is more snow in the forecast for the weekend. I think it is too early for winter, but I don't have a choice.

1 Month Old

Our little cutie is 1 month old. The last month has gone by very quickly.



It was hard to get any happy pictures because the camera flash kept making her cry.

Flying

Daddy's type of playing is always more active than Mommy's. Mommy is better at doing quiet play time activities. Good thing Daddy likes to horse around.

Friends Visit

Some of our friends came to visit us this last weekend to go antelope hunting. The hunting was successful, and we were able to spend some time with our friends. Bria was especially happy because she could play with her best friend all weekend.

Bria and her friend reading books. We appreciated the calm activities.

Whatever one did, the other one had to do too. Both were sucking on ice and spitting it back into their cups.

Of course, when you get a couple of three year olds together there is bound to be a few fights over who gets to play with a certain toy. However, they both still had lots of fun. Bria was really sad when our friends were gone, but hopefully we can visit them soon.
