Park Play Date

Our friend Carolyn just sent us this picture of Keenan and I in the park. I realized we don't have a lot of pictures of just the two of us, especially at this age. He has so much fun swinging - he could do it all day if we let him. He giggles and laughs and claps his hands. It is quite cute. Now when we sing 'if your happy and you know it' he automatically claps ~ we are proud ~ ha ha!!!

Our beautiful nieces

I wanted to post all these pictures of Chloe Ebadi and Elaina Gromala.

I could figure out how to get them all on here - so I am posting some professional shots of Chloe's link and copying Elaina's most recent pics eating some yummy food.



I love that Keenan has two older cousins to look up to (Andrew/Aden) and two cousins close to his same age to grow up with...




I now am encouraged to call Joey Pippin (Lifetime Portraits) to schedule our one year pictures! He is fantastic and I've been putting it off for way too long! http://www.lifetimeweddings.net/ He still has our wedding picture up on the front page. We feel honored!!!

Mom's Night Out

I was very excited to get out for a much needed dinner this week with our fun group of friends. Ben was nice enough to have some 'boy time' with Keenan. FireFly has the best food and took great care of us!!!

Story Time

Ben decided last minute to not just take the afternoon off but the morning too so we could all go to story time today at the downtown library. He has been gone so much lately that it was nice for him to see Keenan in his play element with other kids. We met Keenan's new friend Baily (and mom Carolyn) and they enjoyed each other way more than they enjoyed the puppet show. We decided he is just too young for that special show they put on today. We will have to stick with the regular story hours but it was still fun to try it out. We ate at the french bakery Provence afterwards outside. Keenan ate my salad and we have learned that he really likes lettuce (who knew?)

 

 

 

 

Did we happen to mention he loves the camera. He is quite a poser when we point it at him.

HAPPY NEWS

I would just like to say how happy we are to have this wonderful news that Ben's dad is cancer free. This just goes to show what we always knew about him - that he is strong physically and mentally and can beat any odds! They have had so much support and prayers being sent their way for months which (of course) shows how many lives he has touched.

We couldn't be happier....I take that back, we would be a lot happier if he was feeling good, gaining more weight and didn't have to use the feeding tube ~ But with that said ~ it is situations like this that make us all believe in something bigger than us.

Here is such a sweet picture of him and our niece Elaina...



So in honor of him - we just want to say Congrats and we can all breath a little easier this week!

Play Date at Zoo

Yesterday was so beautiful we did a spur of the moment play date at the zoo. It seems many of us were dying to get out to enjoy the weather because it was a great turn out. Although the moms get more into the animals then the kids, we all had a blast!
