Last photos
Our last photos on the porch. The kids and I went to join Brett. I'm coming back with the movers but we decided to head to Indiana to be all together. My dad and I had been keeping the kids happy and getting stuff organized. So we packed up the car and headed west!

Birthday morning breakfast & doctor
Bennett and his birthday balloon. Graham also picked out a balloon that said he was 16. Balloons were a huge hit with both boys.

At Bennett's one year check up ! This was our last visit with Dr. Amy so were sad to say goodbye.

The one year old hunk weighing in at 20 lbs! He has gotten so big!
Looking at the boys in the mirror after breakfast. They were cute and all laughing. This was how we started Bennett's birthday with diner breakfast!

Happy Birthday Bennett!
Happy Birthday to Bennett! You are such a sweet little boy, and we are excited you are a part of our family! We are spending the day by getting Bennett's 1 year check up (shots, yuck) and a birthday balloon! Then later, we will have birthday cupcakes to enjoy.
I'll post a birthday photo and his stats after his appointment. Please enjoy the photos below. I can't believe how fast this year has gone! It feel like yesterday they were saying my BP was up, let's have a baby, and here it is a year later!
We love you so much Bennett! Happy Birthday sweetheart!

family time
Since Brett starts his job on Monday, June 9th, we have spent a lot of family time this weekend before drives back. Getting in cuddles and pictures with two squirmy little ones is tough, but worth it. Brett left this morning to drive to indianapolis to be ready to rock and roll for his start tomorrow. Gigi has been here for a few days loving on the boys and helping get things organized, and is driving back with Brett today. I am so glad that he has company on his way back; thank you so much Gigi for all the hugs and love and for being the co-pilot in the car today! We love you bunches!
Bennett got some special time watching cars with Brett before he left. Bennett loves being outside.
Bennett is getting more teeth in right now, so he is chewing on everything. A favorite chewie right now is this egg shaped cookie cutter.
Graham asking is the present is for Bennett and him. And can he open it right now
Graham patiently opening the present while Bennett watches.
yeah a family picture on our porch!
Graham did an OK job of sitting for the photos. After a few pictures, he did a few races on the front sidewalk and then we moved to the side of the porch.
We tried a few more but Graham was done with group photos
Graham seemed to like being alone on the porch better than with all of us.
He is all legs this kid!
We were able to get a few with Brett and his boys.
We could have not posed him better if we tried!
look, the moon crescent!
The race between Graham and Bennett. The boys are at the finish line waiting to start.
Graham, in typical fashion, says ready, get set, go as he is already starting to run. Which you can see in this photo perfectly.
they are both watching my dad who counted them down for the real race.
We had a great time outside before we came in for baths and bed time. My dad is staying with me and the boys until we know a date when the movers are coming. Once we know that, we are hanging out, cleaning, organizing, working and playing until we know the next step!
Brett and I....it was so hard to say good bye to him this morning. I will miss him so much. I am so thankful that he will have this time to get back and get settled before he starts his new job. And we can't wait to join him!
We will keep you posted as our next adventure unfolds! Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers as we figure this thing out!
Good luck Brett, you will be great!
