He's on the move!

Ben has finally started to crawl, and is a little bit sneaky about it-- he is very quiet when he wants to get into something. His favorite thing to do these days is to dump out the dog food. He also thinks its great fun to go into the pantry. He is very fast with his walker-- didn't take him very long to learn how to manuver that thing!

Happy Valentine's Day


Spinning on that dizzy edge ...I kissed her face and kissed her head ...And dreamed of all the different ways I had ...To make her glow
"Why are you so far away?" she said ..."Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you ...That I'm in love with you
"




All I needed was the love you gave ...All I needed for another day ...And all I ever knew ...Only you ....




We'll do it all ...Everything ...On our own ...We don't need ...Anything ...Or anyone
If I lay here ...If I just lay here ...Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
I don't quite know ...How to say ...How I feel ...Those three words ...Are said too much ...They're not enough
If I lay here ...If I just lay here ...Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told ...Before we get too old ...Show me a garden that's bursting into life ...Let's waste time ...Chasing cars ...Around our heads ...I need your grace ...To remind me ...To find my own
If I lay here ...If I just lay here ...Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told ...Before we get too old ...Show me a garden that's bursting into life ...All that I am ...All that I ever was ...Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see ...I don't know where ...Confused about how as well ...Just know that these things will never change for us at all
If I lay here ...If I just lay here ...Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Brrr... it's cold outside!!

Well, February really is quite cold today. It's making me wish for Florida even more, only 6 more weeks till our family road trip. This was a whirlwind weekend. We had the OLH Jubilee Gala...

I think everyone had a great time!!


Sunday we took the kids to Atlantis Marine World Aquarium. Ben loved watching the sea lions from the indoors, not too crazy about the outdoor show. After that, we went bowling at Wildwood and then onto Gators for dinner. Ben was really good in the restaurant.



10 months old!!

It is very hard to believe that almost an entire year has gone by... the month of January just flew right by and it seems that winter really is here today. Some highlights from January--



Ben now has five teeth and enjoys food very much. I wonder where he could have gotten that from? Notice the bruise on his head... Daddy says he looks like a man




Here I am working on our Girl Scout bronze award with the South Fork Breast Health Coalition. Hot glue guns are not too much fun. We decorated the canisters for the Chinese Auction at the Love, life and Lingerie party. We put fishnet stockings on the containers and attached a garter and Breast Cancer awareness ribbon. They really came out cute!
