(a post full of ellipses)
Just like that, sweet Ben went from a tiny, sweet (early) baby to this...
At 3, Ben...
...loves triceratops
...thinks ketchup is a square meal
...is a complete and utter mama's boy
...refuses to be potty trained
...is a master fit-thrower
...loves the color orange (despite our Aggie roots)
...always answers "great" when asked how he is, or how he slept
...is a puzzle master
...has a major sweet tooth and is a candy fiend
Happy Birthday, sweet Ben!

Fun with Boxes
Why do we waste all this money on cute, eco-friendly (and some not-so-eco-friendly) toys? They have been in the play room for well over half an hour, just chillin' in the boxes.
That's all I got today, folks. Happy Monday!

Why Am I Such a Slacker?
Seriously, I used to be so good with this thing. Maybe it is because now, every time I sit and try open the computer, the kids run over thinking that I am playing Candy Crush and want to "do the oranges" or "do the yellows" for me. (FYI, year 2033, Candy Crush is a ridiculous game that is a huge time suck, and we are all addicted.)
Nothing new and major going on, just keep on living, L-I-V-I-N. ;) Summer days mean pool fun. Kaylynn and Ben are little tan kids - the epitome of the Coppertone Baby.
Here are a few Instagram updates on the summer so far. We've got a fun trip to west in store soon, which we are very excited about!
Chalkin'
Fourth of July Fun
Aunt Cathy brought her ice cream machine over on the 4th and I think we all had fun with that one. Yes, that is ice cream in his hair.
Trying my hand at a Pinterest find.
In the summer, sometimes we have to cool off by taking a trip to PetsMart to see the fish. You'd think we were at a zoo or something, the way they run around checking out every exhibit.
Though, all-in-all, I can't complain about the weather much. Some days are cool enough that we can actually "enjoy" the park and not leave red-faced and drenched in sweat.
In June, we got a new member of the family - Phyllis the Pilot. Phyllis is after Phyllis on The Office. Some people don't think it is a fitting name, but we love her! :) We were very impressed at how well-behaved Thing 1 and Thing 2 were at the dealership. Test driving cars and what not.
One day, daddy surprised everyone with a trip to see Monster's U! Every since then, Ben's been going around saying, "Monster's Inc., coming to dvd." No idea where he got that from, but it is HILARIOUS.
At the beginning of June, we took a mini-trip down to Galveston to celebrate my Uncle Bob's 80th birthday. We had some kid fun time at Moody Gardens. Might not have been the most fun way for the dad's to spend Father's Day, but the kids had fun. They are still talking about those pyramids.
And back to the very beginning of summer - we finished up Blast Ball for Kaylynn. The Super Heroes did great and Ben was a great team kid-brother! He's looking forward to getting to play on his own next year!

End of the Year InstaUpdate
Ooops, I did it again. No, not Britney Spears, but I have not updated in a while when I had good intentions on doing so. Maybe this lovely new Christmas present from Brian will inspire me to do so (it's a fruit, if that gives any hint!) Until then, here are my latest instagrams. :)
Carrying his for with him, you know, for food emergencies.
Out ghetto lights.
Serious work going on.
Rock fun.
There is a Kaylynn under that basket.
Sleeping out of his bed.
Heisman watch party, I mean, Kaylynn's 4th birthday party.
Dr. Frink
My big 4 year old!
Dug in my purse, found a blue sucker, a highlighter and a sharpie. Sharpie made it to our couch. He now thinks I carry suckers in my purse.
Birthday dessert!
Christmas light tour.
Making cookies to spread Christmas joy. No one answered their door. :(
Zoo trip when it is 40 degrees out.
Too many books and blankets in bed. Boy can't even fit.
"Mommy, my biper is boken."
Snow fall in Cleveland! It started falling right when Christmas Eve mass began. Perfect timing!
Griswald's in Ohio.
Checking out Santa loot.
Trying to eat snow.
"Mommy, dis rain?" No, sweet boy. :)
4 cousins all in a row.
Dr. Frink working on her patient.
Fireman Ben.
Toddler tattos.
Shopping with mom. I love Ben's mustard yellow cords. Everyone else thinks they are dumb. It's ok, he's my little hipster. :)
And they were all "Yellow." :)
