Life has been crazy around here as usual.  We've been getting the girls back into some activities again.  Once Benjamin was born we kind of stopped doing extracurricular activities because Benjamin took up so much time.  Not fair to them, I know, but the way things were.  So we've started swimming again and next week they are starting Karate, which they are super excited about.  But that means more craziness.  

Benjamin had his first dentist appointment this week.  I was really worried about it since just brushing his teeth is a whole dramatic experience....But our dentist is fabulous, she's very kind and soft spoken so Benjamin seemed fairly receptive to her.  He still screamed, which he does everytime we brush, but it allowed the dentist to get a good look inside.   His teeth are a little yellow which means they are probably softer then normal.  She didn't see any cavities and we got a special toothpaste to help harden the enamel.  I hope it helps.

We have been spending lots of time outside as usual. Benjamin loves jumping on the trampoline or visiting the neighbours.  He loves to run around and if the girls are at school he'll walk right to the bus stop.  

Not to much is happening in the next few weeks.  We don't have anymore appointments until we get back from our trip. So that is good.  We're just enjoying life...and taking things one day.

Benjamin has a little friend who spent quite a bit of time in the NICU at the same time as Benjamin. She was born with a condition called Congenital diaphragmatic hernia and this week was rushed to emerge because scar tissue from her previous surgery had caused a bowel obstruction.   So we're asking for some extra prayers and get well vibes for her as she going to be in hospital for about a month recovering.  There is lots of anxiety for her parents as she's never had bowel issues and is now on TPN.  Her mama is also 32 weeks pregnant.  So this is a high stress time.
