It's been a nice quiet January so far!

We decided to let Lukey try feeding himself with a spoon the other night! Well.....this is how our experiment went....yogurt and applesauce......oh boy........
Then it was bath time for Lukey baby!!! He's much cuter with his little faux hawk!!! LOL


Hi Everyone;

I don't have a lot to post, but thought I would put a few recent pics up of the boys! We've been doing well. It's been bitterly cold here lately, lots of snow (well....lots for this area anyway....not for most who are used to it) and we've been pretty much just hunkerin' down inside for the past few weeks....only going out if we really have to!

The boys are back to school, Jake is doing very well with his reading skills, he should be reading smoothly by June...we're excited about his hard work in this area. Joshua is busy working on his speech....it's the first "real" speech he's had to do right from the beginning to the end. This year's topic is "Why I love Camp Kintail"...so he's having a blast doing that one. I'm hopeful he'll learn it well and want to tell the staff about it this summer. Speeches have never been my thing, I always hated doing them, so Todd has taken over this homework project, while Jake and I work on his "Seasons" project and continue to work on his reading....so far he's read me 22 books by himself in the month of January, since he's been back in school....not bad for two weeks of work!

Hope everyone is well in this new year! Looking forward to what February has to bring us!
Lots of love:
The Beneteau Family

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!





We had a very nice and very busy holiday season! We had many things to do and many friends and family to celebrate with! We started out our holiday with going to our annual Christmas tree cutting place with the McAuley family! We always have fun hunting down the perfect tree. This year, the boys won against their Mommy for what we thought was the "perfect" tree and we got totally Griswald-ed and ended up having to cut a tonne of branches off the bottom and even 6" off the top! It ended up being a very nice tree and lasted until just a couple days ago when we finally got rid of it.

I hope that you all had a great holiday as well. I thought I'd post a few pics from the holidays for you to see the boys during the Christmas season. We also had a nice small celebration for New Year's Eve with a couple friends too, Lukey was adorable!
So here's to a very happy 2008, let's hope things go well for all of our friends and family this year!

Happy New Year to all of you!

Lots of love:

Kim, Todd, Joshua, Jacob and Lucas
