Mr. Bossy


Well, as you all know tomorrow is the day...the day my oldest baby turns 3!! Where has the time gone? When did he grow up? You never really believe people when they tell you to enjoy your babies because they grow up too fast..you never believe that that is until you become a parent and realize your child is growing so fast right before your very eyes!! Brandon is so much like a little man now (an assertive one at that). The other day as I was getting into the drivers seat of the van Brandon yelled at me, "Put your buckle on mom!" This is only one of the numerous "friendly reminders" that he tends to give the rest of the Bennett household (poor Jacob gets it the worst). Brandon has done SO well on the potty!! :) He wears big boy underwear all day and only pull-ups at night!! Mom and Dad couldn't be more proud of him!!


Jacob learned to jump the other day! It is adorable!! He also got a couple back teeth on top..a couple more and we can officially say "Bring on the red meat!" Jake is a very soft spoken and thoughtful child who worships the ground that his big brother walks on (not always a good thing). We have discovered recently that if Brandon is away and Jacob has some alone time with mom and dad he really breaks out of his shell so to speak. Don't get me wrong Jacob will stand up and defend himself but not so much in the assertive way as Brandon. Funny how two children can be so different?


We set up our old television and dvd player in the boys room that we let them watch Spongebob on occasion..BIG hit with Brandon..Jake could really care less!



I took this picture last night in hopes of sneaking up on them (it didn't work). They are looking at a photo album together on Brandon's bed and Brandon is pointing to everyone and telling Jake who they are. It was priceless!! Brandon loves to look at photo albums!! That's all for now!
