I love you grandma!

Take a ride

Ok daddy, I'm ready for a ride.
Off we go!!!
Come on daddy it's your turn now.

Happy Boy

Mr "GQ" Ben before his haircut. He did not like the barbershop this time. However, Mr Clipper did a nice job.

Ben loved playing with his wagon for the first time. Thanks to the Wiatreks for the wagon!

Home again

We had a great trip to Houston, but Ben was glad to be out of the car after 6 hours. He just wanted to relax in the chair.
We had a cool front come through this week. Ben seems to be cutting another tooth.

First Visitors to Louisiana

Uncle Scott and Uncle Matt with daddy & Ben in Natchez Mississippi on a tour of homes.
Aunt Margie & Aunt Cathy came to visit and play with me.
I was just relaxing in one of the gardens.
I want to catch that bug and taste it!

My Boys

Daddy & Ben at daddy's birthday lunch.
Fun on the riding mower. "Ok dad, how does this work and when can I drive it?"
I'll wave mom, but the sun is in my eyes.

Two guys just riding along.

Ah, to be 15 months old again!

Wow I can see myself in this water mom!
This is great. I wish I could get on a "boogie" board.
Hey it comes with snacks.
My life is so good!

New Skill

Ben found that if he pulled out the drawer, he could climb onto the coffee table much easier!

He is quite proud of himself as well!

He had a little trouble getting back down.

Fun with Ben

The world and the coffee table are my stage!
Shhhh! Don't tell mom but this is how I get up there!

Our visit to Natchez. Mom & dad had a good time, but I wanted to run around and touch stuff. They wouldn't let me.
