March 2023
Benny turns 2 this month! I cannot believe it. Two whole years has gone by so fast!
I don't know if we are teething, going through a sleep regression... or just hate sleeping. You can find us playing dentist or fake food at 3 am most mornings.
Logan's sister, Kinley and her husband Ryan were in Louisville. We drove into Illinois to meet up with them for brunch and some shopping. It was a great time!
The following week was spent playing outside and getting ready for birthday pictures. He looks so grown up!
A little hair cut before pics... better than last time!
I was a little bummed that Logan or my mom wouldn't be able to attend Benny's birthday pictures. They totally missed out because we had the BEST time and Benson did so good! We did a doggo theme and I can hardly wait to see the final product!
Working on some easter baskets for Idalee and Ky. They are turning out so cute!
Logan will laugh at me for posting this - but hands down the reoccurring disagreement we have is about Logan's hair cuts. I don't care what it costs... I want him to go somewhere. Logan hates spending money on it and he doesn't feel like he gets a perfect result. Maybe someone should tell him the perfect results aren't happening at home. HaHaHa
We threw away Ben's birthday cake and he woke up the next morning VERY sad. So of course we had to make something new!
Logan has suggested putting gutters on this before... and boy did I shoot him down. Well... I agree we should do it (sorry log). We are screening in this porch for this summer. So excited about it!
For Benson's birthday we asked Logan's parents to give us a year long membership somewhere instead of a toy. Last year we did the aquarium and it was wonderful! This year we have the train museum. We went and picked up our pass and had a blast! It was just a little chilly!
Monday morning crazies! Trying to figure out this new time change... again!
Logan is the best dad and husband. I snapped this picture while we were reading books together before bed. I really love this life we created together. :)
Ben just being Ben. :)
It was finally birthday time! We had the weekend celebrating Benson!
Benny loves Starbucks cake pops! Aunt Mappie told him to go get in the car and go get one, her treat. He was all over it!
Playing at the park, noodles in the nude + making bread!
Benson LOVES his BBQ setz We spend a ton of time making "meat meat". He also loves snuggling with his dog, and bike rides with dad!
Our spring project this year has been screening in our porch. I came across 16ft x 8 ft garage screens and thought if we got two of them it might be perfect. Turns out it was literally perfect! I can't wait to use this all summer and avoid the mosquitos!
Our flowers we planted last fall are starting to bloom! I can't wait until they are all in!
Benson asked for parmesan cheese on his pancakes LOL. He really is my child!
We are going to Florida in a few days and so Benny and I took a trip to Target to get a few items. He insisted on wearing these boots and this hat. He is hilarious! We also picked up some new sunglasses for him.
We have had a new Dierbergs being built down the road from our house. It was finally open so we took a family trip there. It was so fun! We bought so many fun snacks and Benson LOVED driving the car.
My mom sent me this picture of Benson in Feb 2022... he has changed so much!
We have made multiple trips back to the grocery store to drive the cars!
Benny LOVES meat. I didn't grab a picture but he was dipping his steak that Logan cooked him at 8pm in blood and eating it. He was in heaven! The towel he was wrapped in was covered in blood droppings. Oh my!
He is really enjoying the steak kabob Logan got.
We had a storm coming with a possibility of a tornado so we put everything in the garage!
Wrapping up March with a morning trip to the park! Best birthday month ever!
