Eight Things That Happened Today
1. Woke up at 6 a.m. to feed Harrison.
2. Took a shower. Yeah me!
3. Went to church and was able to sing half of the songs until I had to take Ben out for talking too much.
4. Went through Wendy's drive-thru for lunch and ate in 2 minutes as Harrison knows exactly when Mama is going to get a hot meal and decides he is hungry too. Every time! :) Ahhh... motherhood.
5. Put the kiddos down for a nap.
6. Went to Williams and Sonoma, Baby Gap and Target- getting all of my Christmas shopping done for Ben. Williams and Sonoma was just for me though. :)
7. Surfed the internet for more Christmas presents.
8. Future happenings- The church Christmas dinner is tonight! It's always a lot of fun.
(Note: The dinner was great! Highlight: Braden Young (5 years old) singing "Lovebug" by

Movie Night
And of course I've got to throw in a picture or two of Harrison. In this first picture I had put him under a little activity center to give him a change of scenery and I guess it was just a little too much stimulus for him.
A little angel...
Sleepy Ben
Harrison is finally here!
Dance Dance Revolution
Harrison
Fortunately for me Wichita has a "Harry" street, but I have to say it was challenging finding one that didn't say "1500th Block" or "Sedgwick County" on it. Anyways, I hope Harrison likes it, and doesn't mind his nickname. I'll keep you posted on his arrival, until then please keep us in your prayers. :)
(Update!!! The good doctor approved an 11/11 induction date! Yeah! Can't wait!)
Ahhh....Fall
Darth Ben

Ben and London, or as my mom likes to call them Big Ben and London. She thinks that's a hoot. I have to point out here though that Ben is wearing London's very nice white hoodie. He refused to take it off until she left. I must say, he looked very nice in it, but I think he was more interested in how soft it was.
Window Seat
Sing and Be Happy
We had some good friends over the other day, in which our children decided to entertain us with some singing and dancing. The outcome was more amusing then expected, but one little one (Ben) was more upset about a bruised ego then actual bruising. Good Catch Daddy!!!
They Grow Up So Fast
This is the after photo. Some other firsts are in this picture. Ben can now brush his teeth on his own, in which he has graduated from eating off the yummy toothpaste to actually brushing his teeth. And as you can tell he is sitting on a potty.
We decided to go ahead and get him used to the concept because he has shown some interest and has actually been telling us sometimes when he goes.
Here is Ben all ready for church last Sunday morning. It wasn't any ordinary morning either. Darrel and I thought it was time to get the nursery ready for little brother, so Ben moved up to big boy bed status like a pro last Saturday night. There was no drama, just lots of spreading out and reading extra stories to make myself feel better. Although, I did have to get rid of three-fourths of his stuffed animals after he spent a lot of time arranging them. So now it is a week later and Ben is like "Crib who?" It doesn't even phase him when he sees the crib in the new nursery. Who needs a crib when you are sleeping in a queen sized bed?
So while Ben is in his glory, mommy is secretly holding back tears wondering where her little baby went. Oh well, I guess I better get used to these feelings and cherish the moments. :)
