Ben's New Trick

Ben thinks it's funny to eat his high chair in between bites.

Riley, Nolan, and Ben in Cincinnati Nov. 2008

Ben took a bath with the big boys for the first time.

We went to visit the Hemlers in Cincinnati for the last time before they embark on their 2 and 1/2 year move to Geneva, Switzerland. Ben loved watching the Riley and Nolan play and enjoyed all the attention they gave him. Riley dubbed himself Ben's babysitter for the weekend.

Cute Winter Hat

"Mom, you're kidding! I have to wear this in public?"

Visit from Caryn and Michael

Caryn and Michael came down for a visit on Sunday with Grammy and Grandpa Rapids. Ben had fun playing with them.

Just wasting time!

Ben fell asleep on the way home from daycare holding his favorite crab toy.

Who me?

Happy Halloween!

Benjamin was a Pumpkin and a Bear this Halloween. He was the Pumpkin on Thursday and the Bear on Friday. The weather was perfect and we had lots of tricker treaters. He had fun handing out candy to all the ghosts and goblins on Halloween Night and checking out all the costumes!
