Almost Christmas

Bentley loves caroling to people! He especially LOVES his santa hat! Every year we have so much fun spreading Holiday cheer and visiting people.
Our ward Christmas party......Bentley loves Santa! However, not the talking, moving, real santa! He was so excited until he saw santa move! All of our Santas at home do NOT move.

This is the best picture we could get....he was not letting go of mom for the life of him! Gosh, he's sweet.

Everyday Magic

Lately I've been pondering on the blessing of children. Everyday there are messes, memories, crying, hugs, poopy diapers that make you gag, tickles, discipline, and kisses galore. Some things are not as pleasant as the others----but boy sweet times are truly magic. There is something incredible about the unconditional love your own child has for you. As a parent you may not always be nice and sometimes you get busy with other things and forget to just get down on the floor and have a tickle fight with your child, and laugh until you snort; But they still love you, and when you later remember to play with them-they love you just the same. I consider motherhood a great priviledge with incredible responsibilities that I am honored to embark upon with my children.

1st day of dress up in mom's closet
Thief in the cupboard when mom wasn't looking-now hiding to enjoy the goods! UH-OH! Bentley's famous words were right on the dot when he got caught!
