My boy


Ben makes me smile. He's at such a fabulous age right now where everything is new and interesting. My Ben takes it all in stride and with a grin.
His latest thing is to wave at everyone and say "Hi" and then try and give them a high five. He is super friendly with almost everyone and that makes it fun to take him places. As a perk, he and Afton are starting to play a little better together. The other night he was feeling very silly and started wrestling with her. We had a good laugh until he body slammed her face and she got sad.

He can say a few words now. Hi, dog, Dad, Mom, Afton, cracker. But my favorite is to see his little chubby hands do the sign for "more." Since he loves to eat, we see that one a lot.

I smile whenever I see Ben. You may have noticed that. He's just so cute. And I love how Afton just lays there in the video and lets him pounce on her.
