My baby is officially one and a half! Yes, he has reached that milestone in his church-going career, of being able to attend the nursery. Sadly, my little baby is gone and the terrible 2's are on the horizon - on no! Though I long for him to stay a baby, I look forward to knowing the person he will be. His personality is emerging each day, and it is fun to see what makes him tick. He has a bit of a temper, and isn't afraid to let you know when you have done something to irritate him. Ben wants to do things on his own. He is especially interested in buckling clasps, putting his legs in his pants, and climbing onto chairs, particularly the one I sit at in front of the computer. He is a family "man" who adores those who share his home. He greets everyone with a hug and a smile in the morning, but his smiles quickly turns to whines & complaints until he gets his morning cup of milk. Ben is shy, but friendly. If someone he doesn't know approaches him, he will usually back away, but if he's the one to make the first move, he's all smiles. He waves at strangers in the store and blows kisses to ladies he's just met. He erupts into boisterous belly laughs when he is tickled and high-pitched screams when he is pestered by his sisters. He enjoys morning walks with mom & watching ball (any kind of ball) with dad.
What do I love about my 18-month-old right now? Everything! Happy half birthday, baby brother Ben!

Janet - Ben has not had his first haircut. I know that it is coming, but I just can't bear to do it yet! One day he will probably ask me what I was thinking. Oh well - for now, we keep the curls! Yesterday someone at the grocery store commented on "her" cute curls. I just smiled & didn't say anything. His curls are also very fun to play with! It's hard to not touch them.
They do just grow so fast! Rose is right around the corner!
