I feel so bad that I haven't updated in so long.  To tell you the truth there really isn't  much to tell you.  Things have been great. Benjamin has been doing amazingly well and growing in leaps and bounds by the day.   This winter has been a remarkably healthy one for all of us, besides the stomach bug just before Christmas.  We have been swimming and participating in parent and tot arts in crafts.  The interaction has been so good for Benjamin.  He also now happily goes into the nursery at church on Sunday mornings.  Such a relief and a wonderful hour for us to just be quiet.  His speech has just exploded in the last few weeks.  He's been putting sentences together like "I am cold" and "I am hungry"  or "don't tickle me"  :)  which is fantastic.   We also started potty training.  We started 4 days ago and it has been remarkable.  I really had no expectations for this process as he is not even 3...has had major issues and is a boy.  But so far so good.  I think getting him too poop on the toilet will be our biggest issue as he already has trouble in this area.  But the progress we have made so far has been awesome.

Everyone else in the family is doing well.  The girls are doing fantastic in school. I am so proud of my smarty pants.  They amaze me daily.  The are so fluent in french now, that I can hardly keep up with them. Its such a joy to watch them grow and develop.  They are awesome little people.

Anyways, that's all I have to tell you right now....we are anxiously awaiting spring and all the fun that comes with that.
