Happy 7 months Ben!

Today is Ben's 7 month Birthday. I can't believe how old he is getting. He is growing up so fast.

He is almost always smiling and laughing. Even when he is not feeling good.

This is one of my favorite pictures. It captures his "I know I'm cute" smile.

Ben is getting so big that he sits up in his stroller and loves it. He also loves to chew on everything. Anything he can get his hands on goes into his mouth...even the dog sometimes.

As he is playing on the floor, he sticks his butt in the air and tries to crawl. This is the best picture I could get of it. He moves too quick.

This is usually how we are sitting. Me holding Ben and Houston always close by.

We love Ben so much and are so glad he is ours.

Facebook?

I fnally joined the facebooking community. I have no idea how to use it but I joined. I am amazed at how many friends it has found for me. I don't know how to talk with them but at least they are found for now. So any of you who are on facebook...I will someday learn how to see you there.

Cute picture of Ben!

What can I say...we have a cute baby.

I was sitting at my table doing some school work one day with Ben in his high chair next to me. I was getting bored so I started to play with the camera on my school computer. I would much rather be playing with him than doing homework any day.

Ben is 6 months old!

So this post is about a week late but Ben is now 6 months old!

Time goes by way too fast. We started to feed him rice cereal and he loved it.


However, he also got sick. He has been sick for about a week which is why I haven't posted anything lately. We took him to the doctor yesterday and we are back doing breathing treatments with Ben. He is really congested and wheezing. We don't know if he got sick because everyone around is sick or if it has something to do with starting cereal or changing formula. (We tried to change formula too.) Since we changed so many things at once we need to just start over when he is healthy and try one thing at a time. He already seems to be feeling better, which makes me happy.

So this a lot of this weekend was spent sleeping.

We bought the coolest new thing for him. It is called a BUMBO. It is a seat that helps him sit up. He loves to sit but he can't do it by himself yet. He leans and falls over. With this seat though he is able to sit and play. Houston loves it too because Ben is on the ground and he can play with him more.

Ben loves to grab Houston's hair and pull his tail. Houston is so good and lets him do it.

Such great friends.
