More Fun Halloween!

Two Cute Froggies & a Beautiful Flower were tired

of having pictures taken of them.

I want to still play with my cousins!

But I'm toooo tired.

And so the Cute Froggie went to sleep right before
everyone's astonished eyes!

And another cute froggie hit the hay!

A little cute pumpkin came by and sat on
Grandpa's lap and they sang songs together.

And then the cute froggie turned
into a handsome prince!

And that is the end of my story!

Beautiful Max is Blessed

I am Beautiful Max.

I am blessed with two Superific parents,

Joanna & Eric

I am blessed with great extended family on the Bennett side.
Alexis, Ginger, Mark, Mom, Me, Dad,
Ryan, Beckett, Cecily, Deserae,
Grandpa, & Gigi who all love me
and attended my blessing day.

I am blessed to have a Wonderful
Grandma & Grandpa Mitchell who
adore me and love me.

I am a very happy baby.

I like to lay on my cuddly, soft,
blue blanket and look handsome.

I really enjoy showing off my
fascinating tongue!

I enjoy talking a lot!

Thanks Dad for preparing yourself through your life
to be my Dad and to be able to use
your Priesthood and bestow
upon me a glorious blessing.

Thanks Mom for the lovely meals I enjoy each day.
And thanks for preparing yourself
while you were young to be
my dear, sweet, precious Mother.

Everyone says I am so cute, and I must agree!

I must apologize to my

amazing parents for
bursting for joy at the seams
during my blessing.
I was just so happy!

Thanks for everyone coming to see me!
There was more than a houseful of people!
It was great!

I was excited to come to earth to be
with my Spectacular Family!
Families are forever!

Little Baby Max, Max

I love you!
And I love your Big Brown Eyes,
I do.
You are such a Rolypoly Boy
and you make lots
of cutsie noises for us all!
(Adapted from a song of Great Grandma Bennett)

3 Beautiful Blessings

Here are the 3 little Live Wires in Our Lives!

The Blessing of Max!

Here is Max in Eric's Blessing outfit & shoes.
He sure is a cutie!

Max was a little doll for his blessing.

Max is just as cute as he can be!

Max loves his tongue!

Beckett the frog, Alexis the flower,
& Max the frog hopped on by to visit
Gigi & Grandpa and had lots of fun!

Am going to post later a lot of pics....
but I am having trouble with
editing them. I edited them all today
but the changes didn't show
up on my picture file. :( Cecily - HELP!

Alexis' Baby Blessing

All the Bennett Family came to see Alexis blessed by her Daddy.

Mom, Dad, & Alexis before the Blessing.

I'm so happy to be Blessed!

I like to Dance and Smile a lot!

I love to see the Temple,

I'm going there some day!
This 'Temple' Blanket was made

by Grandma Hawley.

I like to be Fluffy and Lacy!
Grandma Hawley made this dress for me.

I am happy today for my Family!

I can see you!

Thanks everyone for coming to my Blessing!
I had a fun day!

Smile - That's my middle name!

HAIL, HAIL, THE GANG'S ALL HERE!
When out for a good time we go,
We go, we go, we go, we go,
There's nothing we do that is slow,
Is slow, is slow, is slow, is slow,
Of joy we get our share you bet,
The gang will tell you so;
No matter the weather
When we get together
We sing this song you know:

Hail, hail, the gang's all here,

Never mind the weather,
here we are together;
Hail, hail, the gang's all here,
Sure we're glad
that you're here, too!

Hail, hail, the gang's all here,

We're a bunch of beauties,
and we are all cuties;
Hail, hail, the gang's all here,
Sure I'm glad that I'm here, too!

Who's going to spit up first?

I'm pretty bright-eyed!
Really I'm just keeping my
eyes wide open
because I'm in the middle
of Beckett and Max!
Who knows what they'll do?

Let's put our heads together
and come up with a plan ~ FUN!

Joanna, Max, Eric, Deserae,
Ginger, Alexis, Mark,
Ryan, Cecily, & Beckett
had to say goodbye at
the end of the
Wonderful Alexis' Blessing Day!

The Bennett Cousins in all their Glory!

The Big Chill with Max & Beckett

Max is all ready for church in

his white shirt & tie!

He's going to Alexis' blessing.

I think I'll just do the Big Max Chill for a while!

Max & Beckett chillin' before Alex's blessing.

"I'm bigger than you, Max!" cries Beckett.

"Ich bin gross, du bist klein!" yells Max.

(Family Joke)
Barry & I were picking up
Eric from German Preschool one day.
We thought we would observe
him from afar....so we watched
him for awhile. All of a sudden
German started spewing from
his mouth. He was telling an
older boy in German,
"I am Big, You are small"
So I thought I would insert
Eric's words when Max is speaking.

I love ya Max! I love ya back bro!

When will they stop taking pictures of us????
(I hate to tell you boys - NEVER!)

"I can do lots of tricks with my tongue."
Beckett is very impressed as you can tell!

"I have the cutest smile!" Max says.

"I have the cutest stare!" Beckett replies.

Max & Beckett are best buds!

Just hangin' out - waiting for Mom!

Max & Beckett in deep discussion about
their complicated lives -
eating, sleeping, taking naps, etc.
Deserae & Joanna smile as they listen.

"I get the last word! Max, Ich bin Gross!

Du bist klein!"

Max, Beckett, Eric, & Cecily dreaming of

going to Alexis' blessing.

This post is brought to you because of

Mark Bennett.Thank you Mark for copying

all of my old pics & putting them on my

brand new computer! Barry said that many years

ago when we bought our first computer it

was around $2,000 and of course didn't

have internet. Now we have this computer

that can do lots of things and it was

only$900.00. This paragraph is for

posterity's sake. I wonder how

the future will be?

Alexis looking Beautiful

Here is Alexis being her beautiful self!

Tutus are Too Too Much Fun!

Gigi & Mommy decided to try out their talents to
make me a tutu & I looked Very Cute!

The tutu turned out really big and fluffy
and I looked awesome!

Gigi put the tutu on my head and I was darling!

The Head Tutu was fun to wear
& I looked Spectacular!

I liked the Tutu & said, "Coo Coo!"

Tutus always make me smile!

Gigi had some little flowers from her arrangement
that Mommy glued on my tutu & I looked fabulous!

I smiled and everyone's day was happier!
Thanks for the Tutu.
I had too too much fun!

Alexis visits Doctor Grandpa

I arrived inconspicuously in My 'First Halloween' Hat to visit with my Grandpa.


I then was weighed by Spot's dog house.
I came in at 9 lbs 2.5 oz.
I gained around 2lbs 9 oz ~ 45 percentile.

I was quite proud of eating well so I stretched and hung out on the scale for a while.

Nurse Jill measured me. I was 20 1/2 inches.
I grew 1 1/2 inches ~ 45th percentile.

My head was 14 1/2 inches ~ 45th percentile.

I am growing into a Big Girl.

I am Happy about that!

I'm so cute...Gigi just had to put this picture on the blog.

Grandpa looked in my ears and they were both clear! No amoxicillin for me!

He then checked my lungs. My Mom & Dad already knew my lungs were just fine.

Here Grandpa is checking my hips for
congenital hip dislocation.
I'm glad I'm okay so that I can walk
without aide when I grow up.

Grandpa is rubbing my feet checking my reflexes. My toes curled just like they should.
Thanks for the great foot massage!

Grandpa lifted me up by my hands and then let me go. I had great reflexes.

Thanks Grandpa for checking me out and making sure I'm healthy.

Happy 1 month old Birthday to me!

Conference and......Beckett

Beckett was surprised to see his extended family!

Gigi was kissing Beckett and then letting him fall very fast. He liked it as is proven by this picture!

Love his hair ~ what he has left of it!

Gigi loves playing with Beckett and hearing him giggle & seeing him smile!

Cecily, Deserae, & Mom waited at the Sugarhouse Deseret Bookstore for about 45 minutes to get one of the 100 plaques given away for Ladies' Night. The plaque said, "Come what may and love it! ~ Joseph B. Wirthlin" I love the saying and I will remember it as I live my life!

While we were waiting, Mr Beckett was peacefully sleeping!

He did wake up finally and started to chew those yummy fingers he loves so much!

Grandpa & Deserae laughing at cute Beckett chewing his fingers.

Everyone saw that Beckett loved chewing his fingers, so everyone decided to chew their fingers ~ but Beckett wouldn't chew his again for the camera. We thought it would be such a great picture ~ but it still is. This is the story by Beckett, "I chewed my fingers to see if all those silly people would chew theirs and they did! Haha! I am the BOSS!"

Barry & I were able to attend all 4 sessions of Conference. It was great and it was great seeing our Family also!
