Benjamin is 4 months old!

This little butterball is weighing in right under 17 lbs for his 4 month pictures!! As you can clearly see, he enjoys eating his apples, carrots and sweet potatoes. Honestly he hasn't turned any kind of food down yet! He's rolled over from front to back and back to front (while startling himself and Granny T.) a few times, sleeps all night most nights (except when his poor little nose was stopped up from a cold he and Mama shared), smiles all the time and belly laughed at Mama a couple of times. we just love seeing his personality come out more and more everyday. His new nickname is Double Chin Ben Ben!

Easter 2017

We started the day off with a little bagpipe show from Daddy. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed his playing. The kids even brought chairs down to listen.


Benjamin and Ashton in their daddies' Easter outfits from wayyyy back when.

Benjamin Perry Hays I, II, III and IV

Well at least I tried to get a good picture of all for of my children!

99% of the pictures looked something like these!

So I'll take this decent one!

All the picture taking wore him out.

Eating watermelon with Papa Perry.

Riding the kids around was just an excuse for these two to be kids again!

Arouond the house in April

Baking, hanging out with GT, potty training, surprise birthday parties, hail storms, front porch swinging, garden preparation and planting, school work and a whole lot more happened in April. Spring arrives and time seems to fly!!

Riding the go-cart at Laura's 40th surprise birthday party!
I'll be riding before you know it too!

       
He has to sleep with the blankie over his face! Crazy thing. I think we might have another one that is attached to their blankie! Thankfully we have lots of these!

EC, Mama and Ben Ben hanging out in the kitchen floor!

April is always a month of crazy weather around here. This year we had a massive hail storm with some tornado warnings. I've seen pictures of large hail before, but I don't think I've ever seen it in person like this. Just glad we didn't get the largest pieces and no windows were broken!

Hanging out with Mama since she's been at school all week.

How am I supposed to edit these wedding pictures when this little smile is looking at me!?!


     
Hanging out on the front porch in the mornings is one of our things!1

Daddy's little garden helper. Carolyn found these EC size garden and just knew EC would put them to good use! She helped plant the green beans and cranberry butter beans!


8 months after finding out "It's a Boy" and he's wearing the onesie I bought to share the news.


EC and Abby hanging out at Pop's while Mama is at school. Looks like they are getting lots of school work done! ;)
My little bakers. Emily makes the best chocolate chip cookies around. EC wanted to learn and helped Emily make a double batch.


Potty training at it's best. Why were clothes when you might have to run to the potty? EC making "the face" and wearing her pull ups!

"The Face" everywhere we go!

The last few months of school, BB stayed with GT. I am so thankful they finally got moved up here to Springville. She kept EC when she was little too, but they lived in Center Point at the time and it was difficult to get all the way up here.
