Boys Birthdays

This week has been incredibly busy.  Kaidens birthday was the 17th and Ethan the 19th.  Especially since their birthdays are so close I try to make them each feel special on THEIR day, and then we are having a big pool party on Sunday for both of them.
On their birthday morning they come down to a decorated house with a few of their gifts and a cake...



Then next is going to their school for cupcakes and a small celebration....
Apparently at Ethans school kids aren't allowed to use the monkey bars until they are 5, so the teacher and all the kids took him out to the playground, crown and all, everyone gathered around while Ethan got his first try on the monkey bars!
THEN (yes, there's more!)
After school all the neighborhood kids come over to play, have some cake etc.






The week has all in all been WONDERFUL and I am so happy for the boys.  Secretly I can't wait for the weekend and party stuff to be over, I stress myself out trying to make everything perfect for them, they definitely deserve the best, they are such good boys.

Mr. and Mrs. John Benham!!!

This is the moment we have both been waiting for for years! It was perfection. Nothing short of magical. We had quite a bit of time after getting ready, there were so many emotions, so happy I laughed, so happy I cried. I love these photos and am so happy that every moment was captured.  Can't wait to see the professional ones!                                 Waiting for the go ahead                                         It's time!!                              Everyone ready to come down                                                               Mummy 1st     With this ring...   You may kiss your bride! Ethan is a true romantic.  Whenever we watch movies with happy couples he always says that they are me and John.  For years he has been talking about us getting married. After the ceremony when we came in he was crying.   He said he tried to hold it in as long as possible...                      

Jamaica: How We Surprised The Boys/Video

I have so much going on that I am actually getting things done quicker (you know how that goes). So here are the pics of our last evening and the Vacation video!! Jamaica 2013 from Rebecca Benham on Vimeo . My friends came over after the family pics and we had so much fun reminiscing and catching up. I miss these girls so much, we have so many memories together.

Beautiful Baby Shower

This past weekend was our baby shower!!  We decided to do it a bit early because I am one of those over-organized, over-prepared types.  It was hosted by my best friend Kindle and my sister Bianca. I told Kindle I wanted a slight winter wonderland pink theme since it is so close to Christmas and this is what I walked in to! It was absolutely beautiful, and we were joined by all our best family and friends, we appreciate everyone that made this such a special day for us.  This game was to guess how big I was and believe it or not the winner was Ethan!! He definitely knows his Mummy!  The chocolate diaper game. (It was Johns first shower, he must've thought we were all crazy).  Getting ready for presents!! (The boys got to open them all).  Kindle surprised the boys with a gift each. It was a shirt with their picture saying "I'm the biggest Brother" and "I'm the big Brother" for the hospital. Most thoughtful thing ever!!! I wish I could relive
