Jan- Week 2- Little More Ben's BD, Utes Gymnastics

Sunday, we celebrated the Webster family January birthdays.  

Opening presents was definitely a blur.  

 Aunt Lara was in charge of dessert for the night and made this cute chocolate chip cookie for Ben. His response when he saw it was, "How did you do that?" 

 Ben and Uncle Adam! 

Monday, Ben had his birthday date with Grandma Sibber.  They went shopping at Target and he picked out some awesome Star Wars pjs, a remote control Lightning McQueen, and a couple Ninja Turtle things. Then for some reason he chose to eat and play at McDonald's.  Kind of strange to me since we NEVER go there.  Oh well.  Grandma said he ate really well and played hard. 

Here's one of the pairs of Star Wars jammies-- it says, "Small dark and handsome." :)

Pretty sure I've mentioned before how much of a daddy's girl Anna is.  This is her sweet pathetic face one night after Dan had to leave to go to church meetings.  She had just calmed down enough that I asked her where daddy was and I captured this little point/pout/pose.  

It's been great to have my mom here for an extra couple of weeks; my dad already returned to Chile.  The kids LOVE having another adult around to play, sing songs, read, do crafts, and snuggle with!  

And Anna also very much loves my sister and brother!  Like, when they're around, I'm totally at the bottom of her list of people to go to.  

Anna loved finishing Ben's BD cupcakes one night after dinner. 

Friday, we went to the Utes lady gymnastics season opener!  Even if Dan hadn't gotten free tickets it would have definitely been worthwhile!  We left Anna with my siblings since we knew leaving her behind would help us stay longer.  McKenna loved keeping score all night!  And of course we went to Ugurt after.

 Dan's brother took a screen shot of us waving at the security camera.  McKenna was busy writing down who won the meet so she could tell my siblings at home.  She also said this was the BEST Friday night ever!! :)  

 Saturday, after a busy morning of organizing and decluttering, we put a movie on for the kids and this is how they chose to watch it-- at least for a while.
