For Christmas my parents gave us a book called "But No Elephants!". I loved this book when I was little and it is so fun to watch Jack and Ben love it too. This is last night when Brendan was reading the book to the boys. Ben was so engaged. He wouldn't even look away from the pages, even when the flash went off. There is a part when she yells "but no elephants!" and Jack loves to yell it too. Even Ben made a noise when that part came up and heard Jack yelling. I love these boys, aren't they the cutest! Thanks mom and dad. These books will be cherished forever.

Oh my gosh, I love that book!!!!
I didn't know it was out of print! My mom has a copy of it, but it is getting kind of old and worn out. I should tell her to protect it with her life so that one day my kids can read it :)
Ruthie- I'm just blog stalking you. Feel free to come over and visit anytime! What a cute little family you have. Are you guys living in Utah again? It's been way too long since I've talked to Mary at Cherry. Love and hugs!!

Those pictures are so cute! thanks for sharing. Jen, that book rules, I never knew that we had such common ground, we should all get together an read it - perhaps food should be involved
How the heck are ya? Can we get together. Hey, you have two boys I have two girls... oh the possibilities. Twelve more to go Ruy!
Wow how cute do those boys look. How fun for you! I still need to read that book. Thanks for putting up more pictures. It is so much fun for Dan and I to see them. Give the boys a squeeze for us.
ok ruth!! Your blog is soooo CUTE, I'm a little embarrassed to have you look at mine now! So just be prepared for a let down, ok? Anywho, I seriously cannot believe how cute your kids are!!! I mean they are just ADORABLE! and may I say you look absolutely AMAZING! How did you get so skinny so fast?!?! I still look like I'm 3 months pregnant and have no clue how to get it to go away. You sound like things are good and you are such a GOOD mom!! I am soooo jealous too of jack's love for ben. Conner seriously beats up on eric all day. I mean there are few moments when he does the I love you's for eric, but sometime's he tells me how he doesn't like eric. So good news for you that jack loves his little brother so much....maybe he never will get the "jealousy" phase. ok, this is a long post, so I'm gonna go now! hope all is well!
I love that top picture. Brendan looks like a pro with the boys in his lap and a book in his hand. Maybe he can come read that to my boys sometime ;)
I'm so glad you found us. Yes, we still live in the same house. Your family is so cute.
Hi Ruth,
It has been a long time since we have seen you guys. Your new little guy is a cutie. I hope all is well.
We have read those books probably 100 times since we got them from M & D. My kids love them. Cute pics.
My kids LOVE these books! Mom and Dad always give the most well thought-out gifts!!! YEAH!!
