This picture was taken when Brayden was just 3 months old, the same age Brian is now. It is so amazing how fast time goes. When Ben and I got married there were no grand kids in the family, 3 years later there are 7! That is amazing! Two years ago we all thought that mom wouldn't make it much longer but what do you know, she is kicking and fighting all the way! She has gotten so much in the last three years that she has something to fight for. Lena married Kenny, who has two kids that we love to see, and they just had a new baby of there own in July. Dan and Emily just had there newest in addition to the beautiful Madison. Brian has grown so much that I am now putting baby clothes that are too small away! I was looking at pictures of Brayden that we had done on his first birthday and he is still developing his features so much, I just want them to stay little (without the temper tantrums). I don't really remember Brayden being this small, I guess that's why we have pictures.

Benjie and I just had our third anniversary on Saturday. I cant believe its been three years when some times it feels like it has been 20. He is great! Brian still wakes up a couple times during the night but Ben always gets him. He cleans the house, at least most of the time, and does a good job at it too. He will cook for me and the boys and its usually pretty good. I don't know what made me fall for Ben but I'm glad I did, he is an incredible guy. I didn't want to do anything special for our anniversary so we took the trax and walked around downtown. We really had a great time laughing and freezing in the cold. We then went to a local pub just down the street that was delicious! I had my first fried snickers, it wasn't too bad. I'm glad that we didn't plan anything and just winged it on our anniversary. We met some neat people, on the trax and in the pub, and found ourselves a great place to go eat when we get a night out. I cant wait to see what happens on our next anniversary!
