an eternal family loving life one day at a time skip to main skip to sidebar saturday february 4 2012 there are sticky notes all over my walls all over the house there are little pink post its labeling each room office ben s room master bedroom laundry etc the floor is littered various boxes with similar labels most are opened and half empty but some are still sealed shut they are just waiting for their contents to be revealed and subsequently organized we ve moved left the cold air and snow of detroit for the sunny and warm soon to be scorching hot las vegas and while i am ecstatic to finally be here i am having difficulties unpacking zero motivation so tonight i am playing on the computer listening to ben sleep in his room matt is downstairs watching a little tv the news about whose winning the caucus here in nevada and i m happy i m content in this moment because i m at home so i think the pink post its will stay on the walls just a little longer as i relish in this bliss of being at home here in vegas now if only i could figure out how to get everywhere posted by courtney at 11 11 pm 1 comments wednesday august 17 2011 we re an eternal family living one day at a time i just have to say that yes we are alive no i haven t forgotten about my blog i ve just been too lazy busy to sit down and write about our lives ben is 10 months old he is still just as fantastic as ever his adoption was finalized may 19 2011 and he was sealed into our eternal family july 16 2011 i have plans for a more detailed account of ben s big day at the temple coming soon ben was able to meet a whole slew of family and he loved every minute of attention he is just getting so big i don t want to admit that he is getting taller but i do love that he is becoming even more animated and confident in himself ben has this sweet and feisty big personality and he is just happy as a lark to share it with everyone he sees and he has the cutest dimples any mom could ever swoon at ben loves pulling himself up to a standing position eating real people food walking with mom or dad s help walking along the furniture with out any help from mom or dad toppling over the laundry baskets esp if they are filled with clean laundry shaun the sheep veggietales giving kisses although at the moment he s being a little stingy lol pulling mommy s hair throwing his food the bathroom we ve had to keep the door closed otherwise he crawls like a mad man in that direction to play in there chewing on the wii remote mommy s cell phone his blue blanket from g ma and g pa g ben hates taking naps eating baby food being stuck in his exersaucer yo gabba gabba he gets the biggest scaredy cat look on his face then he starts screaming bloody murder it really does terrify him and i don t blame him it is one freaky show being contained for diaper changes when daddy is away not being allowed to play with mommy s cell phone going to bed and when mommy has to say no life is really good at the moment posted by courtney at 6 13 pm 1 comments wednesday march 9 2011 we grow neither better nor worse as we get old but more like ourselves benjamin is 5 months old and he is just fabulous his favorite things right now are bananas we ve started eating solids yummy biting we ve got two little bottom teeth sticking out laughing sooo cute and sooo hearty no girlie laughs here fake coughing which i m convinced is part of him trying to laugh sitting up which he can do unassisted for about 10 15 minutes at a time his toes he loves to grab them when he sees them not tasting yet headbutting he likes to put his hands on either side of my face scream and then wam things we re not quite sure about apple juice he ll drink it but you should see the look on his face bath time he s never really hated it but we re still not lovin it rice cereal he ll eat it but he d much rather have bananas rolling over actually he absolutely hates rolling over we love having ben around posted by courtney at 10 23 am 0 comments tuesday january 25 2011 if we are going to pay this much for crab it better sing and dance and introduce us to the little mermaid matt i enjoyed a wonderful date night over the weekend and can i say thank goodness i sooooo needed it motherhood is kicking my butt add on top of that matt working and you ve got one frazzled courtney i think that besides sleep the thing i miss the most is the ability to just go see a movie on a whim there s something about finding a sitter that is so difficult for me maybe it s the time suck of having to call around maybe it s the need to make a plan maybe it s the possibility of people saying no i don t know but when matt got called in to do a quick out and back trip last friday the only thing i could think of was date night see when matt gets back from a trip he gets several hours of rest time time that he doesn t have to be 15 minutes away from the airport time to not stress and then the planets aligned my very good friend brittany called to see if i wanted to go shopping i of course jumped at the opportunity but only in exchange for free labor evil laugh i had matt available stress free for a few hours after work a wicked sweet babysitting team brittany and her husband i needed a movie selection season of the witch we originally wanted to see tangled but we got there 10 minutes late so we decided on season of the witch with nicolas cage it was very good a little different than i was expecting but then again i m not sure what i was expecting it was pretty intense it felt like time stood still we both loved the twisted perspective on the black death aka the plague stadium seating surround sound dimmed lights a handsome man seated next to me and freshly popped popcorn were the perfect therapy for a frazzled mommy i m looking forward to the next time the planets align and i get to go to the movies again posted by courtney at 10 34 am 2 comments friday january 14 2011 get excited and enthusiastic about you own dream this excitement is like a forest fire you can smell it taste it and see it from a mile away my christmas present finally came in today i m sooooo excited matt this year got me a studio lighting set strobes i got strobes i was able to play a little bit with them tonight i m loving the results grandma was so kind to pose with ben here s an example of what i ll be able to do from now on ps very little post editing was done practically perfect straight out of the camera i feel sooo spiffy we ll be doing family photos real soon posted by courtney at 8 41 pm 1 comments friday december 17 2010 everyone carries around his own monsters my monster you ask a 10lbs little boy named benjamin who is currently and thankfully asleep in his swing allowing his mommy aka me some time to make herself a tasty dinner watch a movie and clean the kitchen and yes that is all at the same time i m even managing to get some blogging done honestly it s heaven i am having a blast getting to know benjamin he is an amazing baby completely handsome smiling up a storm and winning over all the hearts of everyone that comes in contact with him and while we call him our little monster he is normally very easy going but ben has definitely found his voice and he loves to see how loud he can be and he loves to stand he gets the biggest smile sticks out his tongue screams and then starts trying to bounce it s sooo funny well i hear my little monster starting to fuss which probably means he wants something to eat so i ll leave you with just a few pictures enjoy i know i do posted by courtney at 8 11 pm 2 comments friday december 10 2010 since we ve been home we are loving having ben home he is a very good baby he sleeps he eats he poops he has mastered two out of the three it s amazing he has almost
