nephews and neice news.

these posts always excite the masses....

the ones with family photos.

this is my first taste at what it might be like to be a mommy blogger.... with picture of my kids plastered all over as i try to impress upon you how much sweeter, cuter, funnier, more charming my kids are than all the others.

is it working?

the san diego babies.

there are three now!  is that exciting?

sean was giving me all sorts of kisses.  butterfly kisses, ninja kisses, pirate kisses, penguin kisses, scary monster kisses, spider kisses.... kind of experimental, but sweet nonetheless.

and then jared wanted in on it, too.

all the while sweet baby mason slept soundly in my arms.

that little man will learn to sleep through trains at this rate. he's tugged on, kissed, stepped over, etc. while his brothers yell and play at top noise level.

he's a perfect baby.

bennion boys are not true bennions unless they're totally into scary monsters.

and the baby sleeps on.

while i watched a war documentary, no doubt.

and then there was sophie. 

trev sent me a text this morning that said:

"sophie's crying right now - she's a little broken hearted.  she told me it's because she misses you and wants to visit you in slc and see your house while mommy and daddy go out to a nice restaurant."

and then another:

"... and she wants her toenails painted, she said."

i mean..... you don't have to twist my arm.  she's the first bennion girl baby..... so, naturally, we have a bond.  not only am i going to paint her toes, but i'm going to teach her the art of mismatched clothing and bright colors. 

t + o.... will you hurry up and get here, already!?  it's been two days since i've held a baby and i'm anxious for that girl.
