Christmas with the Families

We had alot of fun this christmas season, with both families, we enjoyed many parties and gatherings and alot of good family fun!!!

The Ultimate Gift

My sister Kelli was bragging all week to everyone that she got the ultimate gift for Benjamin and that nothing else would compare, so here I am thinking its a basketball hoop or something huge and cool, I open the box and its a potty!!! What is she trying to say!!

Merry Christmas

This is our official Christmas card, so hope the Holidays are wonderful and full of love with family. Have a Merry Christmas from the Hechts

Snuggle Buddy

He has become the best snuggle buddy around lately!! I love it!!!

Hockey Junior

I love it, Aunt Kelli got him a hockey stick and some pucks from the dollar store and he loves them, I think it so cute. I played for 7 years, so maybe he has it in his blood!!

Cookie Exchange

I finally went to the cookie exchange/ornament exchange party they have every year!! It was alot of fun being with the girls.

Apple a Day keeps the Dentist Away!!

I was grocery shopping with my mom and sister Sherrill yesterday night, and as you can see here baby is sitting on top in her seat so I put Benjamin in the cart and we looked away for a couple of minutes, and returned with him sitting on the soda boxes eating an apple that my mom had wanted!!! It was so funny, the lady at the checkout gave it to him instead of his cookie!! What a healthy big boy!!

Popcorn

There is a reason why Benjamin knows how to day dada!!! Daddy feeds him popcorn!!

Tag Im It!!!!

Julie tagge me to tell you 6 things you dont know about me.....

1.I was ran over by a mail truck when I was at Daycare. I left with just a scraped knee and a lollipop.

2. I do have to also admit that I am a huge car dancer, on the freeway, around town, if music is playing I am swaying!!!

3. I have always wanted to do nails, someday, I still am going to go to nail school and do nails, now everyone knows where to get there nails done!!!

4. I used to be the biggest Nsync fan. My wall was covered in cut out pics of nsync everywhere, I pretty much knew every song and lyric on all the cd's. Still have them this day. What can I say I was a teenie Bopper!!!

5. I have this huge fettish about purses, its not like I get one every year, I get one every month!! I do not know how to control myself when I see a cute purse. If it can hold a wallet and a diaper, I all over it!!!

6. And last but not least, my favorite movie is cars, I love all the cars toys and I am sure, Benjamins big boy bed will have to do something about cars. Its a great movie you should rent it!!

I tag Christy and Sarah!!

Poppi's Chips

Kelli had Thanksgiving with us this year!! She now lives in Vegas, so it was good to have her around!!

Benjamin was initiated into the poppi chip. Poppie loves his lays chips and Benjamin found them in the pantry and helped himself!! This is why he didnt want any thanksgiving grub!!!!

HAIRCUT TIME

I cant keep up with Benjamins hair, he has my color and texture, but Brents growing jeans!!! Someone who owns scissors please come over and cut this kids hair!!

Getting Excited!!!

The Hecht Family goes every year to Disneyland and last year we ditched because Ben was only 2 weeks old and I didnt want to Brave it. So this year we are totally stoked to go and enjoy the rides with Benjamin. I love this pic of us girls (minus Lexi), we all wear matching shirts, its so much fun. Stay tuned for the shirts this year!!!

Play Time

Here is Brent playing with Benjamin's toys again, I really need to get him his own!!! And Ben there on the side hammin it up!!!

Relaxing On Sunday

He was just chilling in our sphere chair on Sunday waiting to go eat dinner!!! He does that every so often, not enough though!!!! Just a quick update on Benjamin, he now has 10 teeth that I am aware of and loves to eat!!! He loves to run around and be free, a little to much because he still enjoys getting into things all the time. His calling at church is to monitor the halls and make sure he has the loudest voice. He magnifies that one really well. His words are limited, but he says dad, ball, and he has finally said Mom, but only once. It was special!! He loves to kiss, so hide your hottie daughters!!! He only likes the big open mouth slobber ones, so enjoy!!! Other than that he is our big man who keeps us going every day with laughter and love!!!

My Dad got us tickets to go see the Kings at the Stapel Center last night and it was so much fun. We actually had our own box up top so we could see all the action. I forgot how much fun Hockey is, so much that I dont have a voice this morning!! Good times!!

Got Milk

We were eating dinner the other night and we got up to leave for a second and when we came back I wondered why Ben was quiet!!! He somehow emptied his sippy cup of milk and was splashing it around everywhere and trying to drink it off the tray!! Good times!!

Bed Time

Here is a cute snuggle picture, I have to capture these because they dont come around very often anymore.

Benjamin the Monkey

Brent and I went as Pirates to a couple parties over the weekend, so we decided Benjamin would fit in as Jack the monkey. Plus it was cute, he had alot of fun, even though he was kinda sick. He didnt know what to think of all the candy. When we got to the church, if he saw a bucket of candy on the floor he snagged it. It was a fun night!!!

This is Hanna and Benjamin together!! Hannah was Wesley from The Princess Bride!

F-5 Tiger

Brent has an amazing talent in building model airplanes, he makes his own plans, then builds a plane like this one from scratch. He does all the painting and even the smallest details like the panel lines..... He even has a kit that he designed that a company makes and sells. He is amazing. I think I know what Benjamin will love to do when he gets older!!!

My Boys

Just wanted to shout out to the most important Men in my life!!! Love you!!

I'm Cute!!

This is why I love my Benjamin, he brings smiles to my face and makes me laugh out loud!! He is such a Ham!!

A Year of Fun!!!

Benjamin Norman Hecht came to us on Ocotober 10, 2006, and ever since we have had the time of our lives. He is such a blessing in our lives and keeps us on our toes at all time. I cannot believe a year has gone by, we reflect on the good and the bad. Here are some pics of him over the year. He has grown so much and has learned so much in just a year, now we look foward to many more years to come!!!

More Birthday Fun

All the family around, we had a lot of fun. Benjamin loves all his new toys!!!
