Our little ham...

discovering that crackers stick to snot

showing off before i put the camera down, to remove the crackers

Benjamin has been so crazy lately!  AKA- a little naughty but a lot of fun!

In all seriousness, Benjamin is sometimes curious of how far he can push the rules or how sneaky he can be, but if Joel or I raise our voice slightly or repeat ourselves, he's quickly aware that we're serious and very obedient.  He's a lot of fun to be with.

Benjamin is sleeping great and a super eater, with the exception of vegetables.  Joel has better luck with them, and they just haven't been a battle that I have time to fight, so he's probably lacking essential vitamins or something.  I think I should start trying harder...

"Whats that?", "Where'd it go?", "There it is!" "It's Broke!" "Stuck!" "UhOhh!" and "Help!" are his most frequent sayings, and I'm learning that he will keep saying them, over and over, if they, or any other word, are not repeated.  He also loves that he knows that puppy and dog are synonymous.  It makes him smile like he's being sneaky.

He still loves to make himself dizzy by spinning in circles, and has been flailing on the ground a lot lately.  With winter dragging on, he has been going stir crazy and runs from our front door to our kitchen door, just because he can.  Someday I'm going to regret allowing this activity!

He's in about 2T clothes, but sometimes I buy big, so he can wear it longer!  We knew he had a growth spurt when one night Benjamin looked at his toes when we put him in his jammies, saying "UhOhh!" His little piggies where peeking out his footie pajamas!  

We can't wait for spring to be here to stay, so we can get outside to get rid of some energy! If only we could fast forward to June!
