My Little Angel...

Best Big Brother Ever!!

Super Heroes

Lately Benjamin has really really been into all the Super Heroes. You know the ones...Superman, Spiderman, Batman, etc. He has also been completely addicted to anything Star Wars. This was not my doing of course but Nate's...now he finally has someone to watch all those Star Wars episodes with! So there we were the other night, watching The Empire Strikes Back, Benjamin recreating the epic battle between Darth Vadar and Luke Skywalker. He was wearing his pink Superhero cape (yes...it's pink...he created it out of one of Maggie's blankets.) So Benjamin is "Hya...Hya"-ing his way around the living room (for some reason his battles involve some sort of hybrid martial arts!) and he comes over to me and touches me on the arm. With a very sincere look on his face he says "Mommy, some day you will be a Superhero too." He was so serious!!! I had to stop myself from laughing because I was afraid I would offend him! Benjamin...my little Jedi Knight!

Time For A Change!

Frankly, I'm not sure anyone is actually reading this blog any longer, but it was looked sad, worn and outdated so I figured it was time for a change. The biggest change of course (in the blog and in life) is the newest addition to the Huff Family. Maggie Rose was born Oct. 29th in New Haven, Connecticut. She is a little love with the chubbiest kissable cheeks you've ever seen! She keeps us busy but we wouldn't trade it for anything! Benjamin is about the best big brother in the whole world. He was in love with Maggie from the first second he saw her and he's already so protective! He refers to her as his baby and let's me know that he's just sharing her with me. He's the resident expert on all things Maggie, "Mommy, Baby Maggie is hungry" "Mommy, Baby Maggie spit up" "Mommy, I think Baby Maggie wants her binky." Oh yea...if you ask Benjamin what her name is he says "Baby Maggie." He did not like any of the cute nicknames we had begun to call her but did finally say it was okay to call her "Squeeky" since she actually squeeks! So now we are a family of four! Now it's time for me to sign off...Baby Maggie is hungry!
