January

It has been kind of nice to have the busy-ness of the holidays over and to have some time to clean (although don’t look at my house right now…), re-organize, and decorate a little the past month. I finally spent a week dedicated to potty-training (tried to stay home as much as possible) and it was a success! I’ll spare you the details, but with relatively few accidents, Bennett is doing great. We haven’t done anything too exciting – several BYU basketball games and a volleyball game, and mostly just hanging out when we’re all home. Here are random pictures throughout the month.
It has been an unusually warm January, so Bennett was able to take advantage of the warm-ish weather and try out his new trike. He loves it! Here he is riding around the driveway & sidewalk – riding with no hands like Curious George in the Curious George Rides a Bike book, and stashing doggy and doggy’s blanket in the trunk.

One of the many “pitzgures” Bennett took. Whenever I get out the camera these days, he either wants to be in the picture (if I’m taking one of Ryan) or he wants to take pictures.

Ryan playing with the plastic plates & bowls while I made dinner (and Bennett wanting to be in the shot) 

We did finally get a few snow days. By the time we got outside, a lot of it had melted but Bennett had fun and we did manage to make a mini snowman.
