it's been a while..

since i have written anything down.  the poor blog has been neglected. let's see what has happened since my last post.
beano & gracie had their last soccer games.  hurray!


  

beano was a scoring machine & gave it his all.  good job, buddy! 

with his crew after the game.

 now, for miss g's last game...
she was a body on the field
attached to her daddio's leg.
i thought it was cute.


we had a super fun shower to celebrate the upcoming arrival of kate & dave's baby.  we are all looking forward to that bundle of joy- any day now!

the baby blanket i made for their little nutbrown.

game on lock shirts - justin's idea.  don't ask - i don't get it.

the happy parents to be & all of us!


justin & i had our 7th wedding anniversary.  not a day goes by that i don't love you more, my love.  i can't put into words my love for you.


we've been sick.  a lot.  i think that's the big reason why the blog has been on hold.  the late nights up with coughing, wheezing kiddos can do that. 

one day during their illness, we went out to get some fresh air.  benj wrote me the sweetest note.

i love you too, buddy.  forever & ever. 

playing outside that day was lots of fun.  the kiddos were striking poses for me. 

these are their "angry" faces.

yes, benj, you are bigger!

i love the look grace is giving her big bubby here.  too sweet.


halloween happened. 

the kiddos were mario & tinkerbell.  i curled up miss g's hair & put on some makeup.  she was loving it!! 


visiting neighbor john's house.


mario was bugging tinkerbell.

& she let him have it with her fairy wand.  don't tink her off!

 i was just a mom for halloween.  a tired one. 

& this was ben at the end of the night.  a self portrait he took with my camera.  lovely.




the leaves have been coming down & down & down in our yard.  gracie gets very upset when i bag them up.  they are to be jumped in & slid into & played in & thrown up in the air- not trashed!  they are indeed fun!








that's been the goings on lately..

oh baby

yes, i have baby fever.  have since october when we thought we might have a suprise, but the ultrasound tech's prediction 2 weeks later was wrong.  & that was fine.  not god's plan & we weren't prepared at all (we're not now either, but it's nice to think about). 
my little ones are getting so big & beano wants more little brothers & sisters to love.  i remember a lady at a mops meeting saying the best gift you can give your child is a sibling.  being an only child, i do like my quiet alone time, but also love the big, loud family gatherings i have gotten to become a part of on daddio's side. 

well, anyways, yesterday we had to go to the doctor since gracie is sicko againo.  there was a baby in there crying & ben once again asked if we could have more, since he didn't get one for christmas.  i asked him what he wanted to name them.  quickly, he replied "macy & chester."  namaw & poppy's neighbors' dogs.  he said it would be funny for the dogs to come visit when we would say the babie's names.  i suggested 2 names i like & they didn't fly.  if that day ever comes, hopefully he will be in more agreement with a della & a rigby (& daddy too..)

wanted: a new baby sister

ben announced he wanted a new baby, as he has taught this one everything already. he wants it to be a girl & he will name her gracie.
i think there is only room for one miss gracie faye in our family!

daddio told ben if he wanted another baby in the family, he'd have to be a big boy & start sleeping in his own bed. ben said we could all sleep with him in there then. my kid's a thinker!
