Santa's Visit

Another wonderful visit from Santa this year!

Ethan was really torn up before Santa came, he was worried that he was starting to not believe in Santa and that maybe I was Santa!  He days, "I mean... How do reindeer fly??!!" As he bursts into tears and cried cuddle up on me for a while.  I told him it was the miracle of Christmas because Jesus was a miracle to the earth.

If you remember last year Ethan and Santa were best friends and ate cookies and played cards together.  Which was even more confusing.

I let Santa know about how Ethan was feeling and he gave Ethan the same story I did.  Ethan looked over at me and smiled, his faith was renewed. =)

And of course Amalia had her best friend Kinleigh had to come to get their annual Santa pic together! I'd love to see them continuing this tradition when they are 17!

And let's not discredit the amazing photo of Kaiden with Amalia.  I think I've been extra emotional this season but that makes me tear up.

Star Wars Birthday Party

It's that time of year for the boys double birthday party!! Since I... I mean they are so into star wars that was the obvious choice of a party theme. It was so cute at the end of the party after the boys opened all their gifts and John says, "Well, what did Mummy and I get you?"  They both shrugged.  I said, "We got you this beautiful party, and that is your gift." They both hugged us and said thank you without even complaining that we didn't buy them anything, such gracious boys! Then John brought out their bikes and they went crazy!! It was the cutest thing. Happy Birthday to our wonderful boys, Happy 7th and 9th Birthday Ethan and Kaiden!

And the Fun Begins

On Sunday, March 11th, we welcomed our newest family member.  Amalia Rachael Emily Benham. It all began Saturday morning.  I had signs of labor but we had the Pinewood Derby so I hoped she would wait.  And of course, she did. Contractions started coming in very slowly and Mummy and Binx came over.  We hung out, and hung out, and hung out and the contractions weren't getting stronger but slowly moving closer together.  We all finally took naps then we started hanging out again.  Finally at 12am we decided to go to the hospital. 3 cm dilated and I was admitted. Kindle, my bff of course came to the hospital as well.  All our biggest supporters were there. Waiting for Baby  Getting some well needed rest. Last moments before birth  My contractions never got  intense before the epidural kicked in, thank goodness.  Somehow my left side didn't kick in so I could feel it all on that side, but because I have back labor and I co...
