Hello...

I love Benny will no longer be updated.

It is with a little sadness, cause I kinda didn't want to quite let go of this title because I really do love Benny, but with a new project came a new blog...

www.memoryhunting.blogspot.com

I am still in the process of tranferring all my posts over, but it will take me awhile to get them all there (seeing I have a ton of posts)! It will still be the same documentation of the memory huntings that go on in our everyday lives, it is just that we have a new web address.

I don't love my Benny less, in fact more since my love for him grows daily (even when I get frustrated)... but we started this as a journey and documentation of all our memory huntings, so the new title seems to be most fitting.

I hope that you will follow us there, if you are still interested in the mundane (but oh so special to us) things that happen in our little household as we seek to continue to love God through our memory hunting, family, and the art of all things creative...

Hope to see you soon!

The other day...

We had a picnic in the front yard...

And a stroll in the messy weed-filled backyard with True's friend Posy.

The little royals...

Simply are too precious.



And their King of a father is simply magnificent as me makes me feel like a queen with a surprise of roses littered throughout the house for me to find.

It was a nice surprise after a busy week!

I am very blessed to be his queen and to have our little princesses...

In a funk...

So we all got dresssed and went for a stroll...

Benny was working from home and well, I am normally home, but we were both feeling kinda funky and unmotivated to work. We got the blood flowing, breathed in some fresh air (as fresh as L.A. can get) and felt much better. I think the walk did us some good.

And now for another picker upper... take a stroll over to famed Daily Stroll and check out their feature on Cakies. It so sweet!!!

Matching tats...

For True...


And her Papi...


Though she can pull herself up to stand, Brave is not quite old enough.
Hers will just have to wait.

I'm old enough, I want one!

Weekend work and fun...

True working hard at my desk...


Then, RJ came over to make her sketch for her dance costume a dream come true...



The other member of Team Zissou...


Much needed breaks were rewarded with kisses from Team Zissou...


Sunday evening was wonderfully spent relaxing with some yummy food with Brave and True's Aunt Loop, Uncle Alex, and Rafael and Gabriel...


And of course, before we headed home True was loading up on Aunt Loop's strawberries...

The weekend was fun, but now looking forward to a full week of work ahead...

I hate them germs!

True hates germs so much that she even vacuumed the bed...
Finally, the house is clean.

Lysol has been sprayed everywhere.

Die germs! Die!!!

Have a germ free weekend.

Our colorful Thursday...



I think Brave's shirt doesn't match her tears. Nevertheless, she is too cute and I want to bite her!

Purposeful coloring...


Brave doesn't color yet, but she did stand up in her crib today...

The purpose of True's coloring: A message for their Papi...
Please throw the flu back... we need you!!!

She is a big girl...

Almost.

My little Bravery is 7 months old today.

She is getting strong and mightly slowly, here is a list of things she can do:

1. Crawls everywhere
2. Sits up without assistance
3. Eats brown rice cereal
4. Drinks water, but it gets messy
5. Laugh and giggles incessantly at her mommy's jokes (she is probably the only one)
6. Reaches out slightly
7. Puts herself to sleep

I am sure there are more, but these are the big milestones. Now, I am just waiting for her to sleep through the night. Oh please Brave... sleep through the night!!!

I love my little Bravery...
