Blog Review


In case you noticed from past posts...yes, the boy does have more than one shirt! I guess the red stripes is just one of our favorites. But thankfully, Nana and Papa have sent a new one. Now, he loves to be Cowboy Ben.

So grown up!


Bill and I are now very aware of our words and actions. Ben wants to do everything he sees us doing and literally shakes with frustration when he can't do the same. Yesterday, he had a meltdown when he couldn't manipulate the chopsticks quite right. I tried to tell him that 2 year old Chinese children probably didn't get it yet either, but it didn't help. Recently, he had also wanted to drink from the glasses that Mom and Dad had. I guess it is evident that I already had 1/2 the bottle of wine to allow my baby to handle the fine china. But nevertheless, here he is being such a big boy. Yes, that is milk.

Thanksgiving




We had a fabulous Thanksgiving Holiday with Gama, Aunt Kim and Uncle Erik and "the cousins" (Andrew, Lizzie and Will). Ben had a wonderful time playing with the big kids. We stuffed ourselves per usual fashion and enjoyed the time together. We are all truely thankful for family.
