It's been too long ....
Sorry everyone, we are now back to work and not having as much time for the blogsite. Richard is going to post some videos/pics later. So Richard is back to work full time and I am doing part time. Great thing about this is that we still get 2 days a week off together and that we don't have to put Benny in a daycare. At least for now, we want to be the only people watching Benny. I guess we feel that at this point he wouldn't be able to tell us if anything bad happened and we would feel guilty not knowing what was going on with him every day. We also feel this is part of the reason why Benny has not gotten any colds/flu's/or illness yet thank God. Yes, we are now on a tighter budget, but in hine sight it is all worth it. We are having so much fun that we are already thinking about trying to give Benny a brother or sister in the future. Maybe when he is a year old we will try again. Grandma Marty is coming to visit this weekend and we are so excited. She called this week with a total welcomed surprise of " I think I am going to come and visit this weekend." We are so psyched! Grandma will get to see Benny eating mashed beans/mashed rice/and mashed carrots soon....oh the fun fun mess of this eating experience, one not easy to forget.
On a different note, we have had different family illnesses lately and are keeping Aunt Joan and Uncle Dale in our prayers....Joan is close to the end of her Chemo treatments now and needs strength from all our prayers, as well as Grandma Monina who has been in the hospital alot lately. She seems to be on the mends now from respiratory problems after a small surgery she had. We also are keeping Grandpa Benjamin in our prayers for his continued health while helping take care of Grandma Monina. Aunt Sarah has been battleing an infection in her toe, and it finally looks like things are on the mends with her also. There have been some difficulties for our families and friends in these past few weeks and we are keeping everyone in our prayers during these trying times.
On the lighter side, It looks like Aunt Ashley and Uncle Tyler are really thinking about moving to Dallas in the future. This would be so nice because we will get to see her more often. We are also looking forward to Richard's Nephew Benji passing his nursing boards and possibly moving to San Antonio. This is all so exciting.
Wendy, Richards cousin who lives in California came to visit recently and we had a really good time. We took her to some local tourist spots, went shopping and she got to hang out with Benny. Her smile brought smiles to Benny's face instantly. It was really nice having a family member from Richards side of the family finally get to hold and interact with Benny. We loved her visit and hope to get to see her again soon.
We miss everyone very much and get excited thinking of the day that we will get to see everyone again.
