William's Baptism

William got baptized on March 17, 2013.  Matt and Melanie came down and we are so happy that they are his Godparents.  He is so lucky to have such wonderful people in his life!    God loves you, baby William!

Ben's dance moves -- Nov 2013

More November 2013

It is November, and William is 4 months, and Ben is 2 yrs, 9 months.  Such dears.

Ben is perfecting his stomp in this picture.  It was so adorable to see him work hard on it, and incorporate it into his dance moves!  He also throws in a forward roll every now and again while dancing --- love it!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Meeting Ada -- Nov 2013

We finally got to meet our dear sweet niece/cousin, Ada Berniece!  She is soooo adorable….. and she and William are going to be best buds!!

And of course, Ben couldn't have loved playing with his cousin any more than he did!!

This pictures cracks me up.  William looks like he has no idea what to do when a girl is crying.  Sign of things to come???

This was Ada's favorite place to sleep.  She just curled up on the chair and slept through the chaos.  So precious.

Handsome boys below….

Could they look any happier?

Videos with Great Grandpa Wesley Oct 2013

Hoping these both work!  So cute!

Seeing Grandpa Wesley -- Nov 2013

We were able to sneak down to Cedar Rapids and visit Great Grandpa Wesley.   It is so neat -- Grandpa Welsey has such a neat bond with Ben.  They love to throw the ball around and play catch.
Grandpa is in the nursing home right now because of an injury to his leg.  We are hopeful to send him back to the his assisted living place, where he has more freedoms and better meals!  

And William didn't mind sitting on Grandpa's lap, so that was fun to start that connection with the two of them.
