Ben Smiling
Here’s a quick video of Benjamin smiling. Janell does most of the work in the video, but the smiles on his face are worth it.
He’s just now starting to smile big and giggle a little bit. He’s growing up so fast, though.
Our Family This Week
I got back from my grandmother’s funeral on Monday night. Tuesday we packed all of our stuff up so we could drive to Miami on Wednesday. On the way, we stopped in and saw some of our family (my cousin just had a baby).
Then we stayed in a hotel on Wednesday night and flew out on Thursday morning. We arrive in Mexico City on Thursday afternoon just in time to attend a Mexican Independence Day celebration at the seminary.
On Friday, I met my new youth ministry students and had a meeting with Huberto for 3 hours.
Here are some pictures from the hectic last week.

Ben’s Hips
They say that babies who are born breech have trouble with their hips because of the pressure placed on them before birth.
Since Benjamin was born breech, the doctors wanted to do an ultrasound on his hips when he turned 6 weeks old. So we went for today.
We went to St. Joseph’s Hospital in Tampa. The results came back negative. Everything is normal. Thank God that nothing was wrong. We didn’t even see the doctor after they did the ultrasound because everything was fine.
So, we went to International Plaza as a family since we were already down that way. Nathan got to play at the Looney Toons park (see the video below), I got to take my first ever trip to an Apple Store (although I didn’t spend as much time there as I would have liked), and we all got to share a delicious cheesecake at The Cheesecake Factory.
Overall, it was a great family day despite the stress of having to go to the hospital for the test. Thanks for praying for us (follow our PoulettePrayer twitter stream.)
Video of the New Ride
We got Benjamin and Nathan a new ride. We’ve only taken it out once so far, but they both seemed to like it.
SpongeBen Squarepants
One of Nathan’s favorite shows is Spongebob Squarepants, so when we saw this outfit on sale, we had to buy it for Ben.
