My crazy boys

Ben's first ice cream cone....yeah I know, a little late...but its our new fave 25 cents at Warrens can'ts beat it!

I dunno bout you, but this tower takes one steady hand, I don't think I could stack these on the first try without knocking them over! Maybe Im just an overly proud mom, but I thought it was pretty impressive. ;)

Makin crazy faces with Dad. Man I love these boys!

Happy Happy 2nd Birthday Ben!

This year has FLOWN past! I can't believe Ben is alreayd TWO!!! We had a little party to celebrate filled with all the fixins.

Normally you wouldn't see drinking games at a toddlers birthday party, but we'll take whatever occasion we can! lol

I must say the firetruck cake was the highlight...ok just in my mind im sure, but its my first and Im dang proud!

It made me feel good when we brought out the presents and Ben was still more interested in the cake :) Hey a mom needs a little love for her hard work too!

Love these boys!

Kru and Maddox are my friend Lauren's cutest little twins we watch a little bit a week. I talk about them like my own it thought some of you might want to put some faces to the names! Kru-left, Maddox-right. Its been good for Ben to get used to them, so hopefully it will make the transition to a having a baby sister a round a little smoother. He is such big helper and loves to make them giggle. Although he does love them, he wouldn't get any closer in the pic...crazy kid. This is his new "cheese" smile lol

Our favorite hang out

I've decided when we move to Idaho....someday, Im opening a Treehouse Museum like we have in Ogden. Im in love with the place. Basically its a hands on museum for kids and everywhere you go you feel like you're stepping into a storybook. Not only is it educational, but just dang exciting and fun! You can do anything from milk a cow on the dairy or have tea while you solve riddles in Great Britain. You can ride in the rodeo or work in the nursery at a hospital. So we took Ben for his Bday and ended up getting a membership because we loved it so much. Ben just kept saying, "Look at THIS place" each time we stepped into a new fantasy. Here Rob and Ben are playing the life size chess set in the Medieval castle where you can dress up and put on a Shakespearean play.

The music room has percussion instruments from all over the world. We were all jamming out which I think made other parents think we were a little weird.

Liquid actually comes out of these utters! Kinda surprised the Benjer at first, but he wasn't scared.

Everywhere you turn you can dress up, but Ben wouldn't keep the fireman's gear on for more than a second, we were lucky to get this shot! ;) He was on the move constantly!

Been a While....

So I know I've been bad at keeping our blog up, so after all the pressure I thought Id jump back on the band wagon. Actually what really put me over the edge was when my mom on her mission in the Philippines asked me to update it. I thought I should probably get on it! So quick update. We are still in Utah, Rob working at Wells Fargo and studying for the GMAT in his spare time to go to graduate school. Our big news is we're EXPECTING our second in June! I'm 22 weeks along, its a GIRL!!! We are so excited. She has so many cousins born this year, She'll be the 5th on the Fullmer side and the first of 3 on the way this year on the Webb side! CRAZY! Ben will be 2 Feb 26th! Man this year flew by! Here's a quick update of the past few months...

Jan-Feb

One of the highlights of our families Christmas was welcoming Amber and Daves new baby Jack on Christmas Day! My sis in law Marie and I took our babies and went down to Texas to help out. I'll be honest, the plane ride was a nightmare of the worst kind, Ben and I were in the very last row of the smallest plane ever, it was super hot, right by the stinky bathroom, the flight left 2 hrs late (10pm) so Ben was exhausted from the start, and none of my treats, books, or movies would console him. He cried and screamed pretty much the whole way. Everyone was super nice and helpful around me but I still felt so bad. Needless to say, the trip was worth it. And the ride back was one thousand times better...he watched a movie for about 30 min, then feel asleep for the rest.

Ben's obsessed with planes, (obviously not riding in them) but we took him to the Hill Air Force museum a couple weeks ago which he thought was just the greatest place on earth. He got to dress up like a pilot and sit in a cock-pit. We'll have to go back often since its free!

A month after Amber's babe came Hilary's! Sylvie Ann! I am so glad Im in a situation where I can help my sisters since my mom's on her mission. Im definately not able to completely fill her shoes, but I was able to help little. I miss those babies! Ben still talks about baby Jack and baby Sylvie.

Ben and his best cousin buddies Andrew and Adam at breakfast.

Dec

Ben's locks before we bit the bullot and gave him a real hair cut.

Even though it was hard, I think the hair cut was worth it. He looks like a little missionary! (I couldn't for my life get him to look at the camera!

I always look forward to the traditional Christmas visit to temple square. Not only are the lights incredible, but just the spirit there there, seeing the movies and paintings really help me to be reminded of what the season is all about.

Christmas morn was the best. Ben actually got it this year and I loved seeing him so excited opening all his toys.

Oct-Nov

Riding the sky coaster at Lagoon, being a parent should second guess these kinds of things, but so far hasn't ;)

Halloween party, yes nerds again, it was a quick and easy decision. It was the first time we met some of these people, so when we moved into their ward, we introduced ourselves like we had never met...it took a little while to recognize eachother after this first impression!

So there was a whole group of girls we went to the midnight showing of "New Moon" with, but was only able to catch a quick pic with Jenna before the movie. It was such nice much needed girls night. Didn't get to bed till 5 am and being 13 wks prego at the time, I thought I would die the next day.

Ben in his giraffe disguise hunting down all the candy he can possible get his hands on from peoples treat bowls on Halloween. I couldn't believe he kept the hood on all night. I think he would have slept in it if I let him.
