Loving Daddy Because he’s the one who fed her dinner. For some time now I have been the only person who can feed our dear daughter. Tonight Ben got her to drink an ounce from a bottle. This is huge. At first things were rough. Betsy cried about it and I cried about it … [Read more…]
Big Brother Kisses I find this to be a sweet picture, but I also happen to know that just minutes before he was hitting her. Sweet siblings.
Helmets Carson flipped out big time when Ben put this on him today before our family bike ride/run. Before the helmet was an issue he was all ready to go on the bike ride. When Ben put it on him we said, “Carson, you have to wear the helmet if you want to go … [Read more…]

Watching for Daddy When I know that Ben is close to being home I start talking to Carson about it. I’ll say, “Guess who’s coming home soon?” or “Let’s go look for daddy!”.

Carson and The Girls The Hartmans (minus Jason) and The Van Kleefs came over for the Super Bowl. Before the game started Carson got to watch Despicable Me with Mabel, Lucie and Emma.
