Bennett's track meet

Bennett had a track meet this morning.  It was for 3 local schools, St. Peter, St. Gerard and Ste. Gen.  There are only a couple Kindergarten girls participating in track, and everyone else is older.  Bennett is by far the tiniest one there, but she did great! She had a lot of fun too.  She participated in the 50m, 100m and 200m running races, and the standing long jump.

Daddy/Daughter Dance and 4 months

Last weekend, Brandon and Bennett went to the Daddy/Daughter Dance at her school.  They met a group of girls and their dads at a restaurant first for dinner, then headed to the dance.  Bennett had so much fun!



Bryant turned 4 months on the 6th.  Lately, he has started reaching for objects and pulling them.  He is also drooling like crazy! He will hopefully be getting some teeth soon.  He constantly has something in his mouth.  He has still been getting over his RSV type illness.  Now it has just moved to some post nasal drip but the poor guy has been waking up a couple times a night with giant coughing fits.  Before that, he was sleeping like a champ.  So hopefully we will get back to that soon!

His 4 months stats:
Height: 25.5"- 75%
Weight: 17lbs, 2oz. - 90%







Bennett insisted on jumping in on the photo shoot!

Snow/Florida/Easter


March 24th we had our biggest snow of the year.  Crazy! Brandon and the kids built a pretty awesome snowman, though!Just 4 days after that we were relaxing in sunny Florida.  Talk about a temperature swing!

We spent Easter in Florida with a few days on either side.  Bennett and Miles swam no less than twice a day, we played on playgrounds and hit the beach once.  Bryant didn't visit the beach this trip.  We just took the big kids which was very fun because then Brandon and I could both make sandcastles, go shell hunting, etc.  Grandma tried numerous times to get Bryant to take a bottle, still to no avail.   Ugh!



 Bennett finally got to try out her mermaid tail from Santa.  She loved it and got the hang of it right away!
