Small update

I've been wanting to post something, but to be honest, we have been TOTALLY negligent in taking pictures lately. Chalk it up to good old fashioned forgetfulness. We even forgot to take a picture of the fam bam on Mother's day and on Easter. Grrrr. Let's just say both were awesome and got to enjoy time with the DeVries' fam for both holidays. Mike was the usual sweet husband that he is and made me a "mommy and Benson" book, with pictures of me and the babe over the past year. I LOVED it. Plus, he got me my daisy and chocolate that I love. It was a bag of dark chocolate truffles and they were gone by the end of the day. Don't worry, I shared. A little. I received breakfast in bed and a wonderful dinner made by Dad Devries, Mike and the kids (chicken piccata and tons of other delicious treats. YUM!) Plus, Mike gave me a nap in the car on the way home. He really did a good job this mother's day. I always used to think that when I was a mom on mother's day that I'd get to be able to reflect on how awesome I was as a mother (vain, I know) but I love mother's day because it really lets me realize how much I love Benson Dean and how awesome he is as a son. He's the best! And, because this post is really about pictures, here they are. I LOVE the picture of Mike and the Benz brushing their teeth together because Benson is looking up with such adoration at Mike. Mike gets that look a lot from Benz, and it makes me jealous. The other one is of our pre-easter celebration at my sister's house in Wisconsin. Please note the absolute terror on Benson's little face. And I can't remember what the last pic is of, so enjoy!
