Random shots of the boys the last few months.

After a long day of playing.

I can't deny him with puppy dog eyes like this.

We are always having to feel his HUGE muscles

Friend Sadie and Tanner at the OCM

How Tanner eats a candy necklace...

and how Benson does.

Tanner left it in Benson's reach and he went to town sucking the little rings smaller. He wasn't to happy with me when I took it away.

More strong muscles

They both love playing "horse". It's nice to have them entertain each other and really cute.

It's hard to be a superhero sometimes

He's trying to get mobile

Tanner- "Hulk is awesome!"

If you didn't know.... It's all about the cape!

Tough life

Benson and his one snaggle tooth. It's been three months since he got his tooth. I'm starting to think that is all he'll have.

"Peek-A- Boo"

Benson will put his arms up over his head to "peek" out then cover his face.

His first bloody nose. Him and Tanner bonked heads. It was so sad!

"Chhhhh" as he shoots me with his web!

HAIRCUT

I've trimmed Benson's hair before with scissors, but this was the first REAL haircut. He just scolded at first then did not want to take his eyes off the buzzers. It was hard to buzz a moving head. I think it turned out okay though!

Looks much better... and "he likes it"!

I cut Andrew's and Tanner's too but I didn't get a picture with all of them. I did get the hair though. You might think it's gross but we had to compare. After I cut Benson's Tanner said, "Look his hair is butterscotch and Dad's is chocolate!" (Tanner likes pudding!) So I made the piles after every one's haircut and compared. Tanner said his was butterscotch too!

Hanging out with Grandma

Tanner had such a blast with his grandma and all the attention she had to give him.
He always looks so funny when he does this, but he loves closing his eyes and sticking his arms out when he swings... to feel like he's flying!

Hooray for Grandmas!!!

We went and saw a 3D cinema at the Imax at the zoo. I think the best part about it was watching Tanner through the WHOLE movie stick his arms out and try the touch the fish swimming in mid-air. There was a couple fish that got eaten by bigger fish... he jumped back for those! :)

Doesn't everyone look so stylin'?

Thanks for the visit mom! It was fun to have you come out and "play" with us!

Church History

My mother came out for a week the beginning of March so we decided to visit some church history sites. Winter Quarter's we'd done before so this time we did Kanesville, Adam-Ondi-Ahman, Far West, Liberty, and Independence. It was a really great trip. I really liked Adam-Ondi-Ahman there is so much history about it. With kids it was a little bit harder to take as much time as we would have liked, but I still would recommend the trip to anyone. We spent the night in Kansas City and relaxed and swam and the hotel. I think the hotel was Tanner's favorite part. He couldn't wait to get there. And of course we had to get some great BBQ ribs at a place I can't even remember. (It's been a couple months!)

Benson relaxing in his own bed... he wished. He got a roll in crib!

Getting ready to go swim

Giddy up for BBQ

A little chilly walking to look out over the valley. We packed a picnic and ended up having to eat in the car.

5th Wedding Anniversary

It was mine and Andrew's 5th wedding anniversary the beginning of March. We have definitely had our trials but the good times out weigh the bad! I love Andrew so much and I am so greatful to have such a great guy as my husband and father of my kids. I love you Andrew!

I was sitting outside with the kids when he got home from school. He parks in the back and walked through the house to the front, swung open the door (and you can see in the picture! :)) expressed his love! I smile thinking about it. He's a goofball!
