Life is busy with two! Hence the lack of posting. Enjoy some pictures of the last few months:
Cassie chose Benson's outfit and was so proud! Then she wanted to lie down on a blanket like him.
Her hair is getting longer! This day we did pigtails with braids.
Cassie earned a trip to our awesome new rec center by filling out a potty chart. She got a sticker every time she used the bathroom in a timely manner. Basically, she was dawdling in the bathroom and we were trying to get her in the habit of getting in and out without wasting time. Recently she has learned that if she wets her underwear on purpose, she gets to change clothes (how exciting! 2 [or 3! or 4!] outfits in one day!). Grrrr. Any suggestions?
They didn't quite make it all the way down the slide and ended up walking off. Pretty funny. :)
This was cute- Benson was riveted on this picture of Christ in our front room. No matter where Trevor moved him, his eyes stayed on the picture.
Benson's blessing day. More pictures coming in a future post.
Smiling pictures! The last two are just so accurate. He spits up a lot, so his shirt is always wet, and we always keep a burp cloth underneath him. He also usually smiles with a big, wide-open mouth while he waves his arms and kicks his legs. He's such a happy little guy!

Benson is ADORABLE! And he looks so happy. What a lucky little family!
We've been having similar issues with Anna. I started a marble jar. She gets marbles for going potty (without dawdling) clearing her plate after dinner, being polite, brushing her teeth, saying prayers, and any other positive thing I can think of.
If, however, she makes a BIG mess with things she's not supposed to touch, or has accidents in her panties, or is mean to Levi, we take marbles out of the jar.
When the jar is full, she gets to pick from several big prizes like a trip to the ice cream shop, staying up late with mom and dad, going out to eat, etc.
It's been working pretty well, and though she still puts up a fight about some things, she actually ends up complying more often than she used to knowing she will get a marble if she does, and lose one if she does not.
I love seeing your pictures. Your kiddos are cuties.
Such cute grandkids, and such good parents. You'll have to change your title to include mention of Benson.
So cute!
