First Black Eye

This weekend we had lots of cleaning to do. We have 3 different appointments for different real estate agencies to come look at our house so we could try to decide who we waited to try to sell our house. 

Chris pulled all the cushions off the couch... So where else was I supposed to set Bennett while he drank his milk?!

GA's new doggie bed! So comfy!

Later that day, Bennett was in the kitchen "helping" Chris while he filled up the Tupperware containers we keep the dog food in. He is really into pushing things across the floor - and that's exactly what he was doing the container hit one of the cracks and he fell face first into the hinge where the lid met the container. Instant tears and crying! My poor baby! I was fearful he hit his mouth... And then I saw his eye!!!

Big boy holding the booboo pad on his head


Pictures really don't do it justice!

Some crackers with daddy made everything better!

I've heard this is just something that happens with little ones... That it's something I should get used to.... I don't wanna!

Beginning of May

This just happened... 

Turned around and he had stepped into the storage compartment of his train!!! 

Here comes trouble!!!

Cinco de Mayo at City Center

There was a free concert so we went to enjoy the food trucks and the music


Bennett enjoyed his free ride!  Chris was bouncing up and down and he was LOVING it!!!

Watching the fountain




We have been trying to take Bennett on more walks to practice walking. Sine it's been beautiful our we decided to hang out at the big park area.

I love this photo of Bennett "talking" to his daddy

He was so proud of himself that he was holding GA's leash


Selfie - too bad he wasn't looking!


Walking in flip flops! He hated the feeling of the fabric between his toes!


The other day I put Bennett down with his bottle  and he was watching a sing-a-long station on tv. Chris was win him so I went to take a shower

I came out after my shower and saw this

Tired boy!!!

Random update

This little boy steals my heart when he smiles

You can almost hear his giggle in this photo







Finally starting to like veggies!

Love the pea stuck to his nose


Good hand eye coordination practice!

By now I think most people have heard on this website... I saw an article about it on CNN and spent almost my whole lunch break the other day putting in different pictures!

I looked 75 on our courthouse wedding day!

My one year old looks 3...

I think sunglasses mess it up... Cause I can say Chris does not look 57 in this pocture!

Really?! 


Then I noticed how it would pick up people in the background...

And then this happened... Weird!

On the move - but still not walking!

Our boy has gotten so active - you can practically blink and he gone!

Still loves looking over the balcony

Reaching out to get me downstairs!

Birthday breakfast before Bennett's first haircut at Five Forks Cafe in Williamsburg


After his haircut we went to my friend Amanda's joint 25th bday party/her dad's retirement party

Bennett had a blast eating angel food cake and chasing little girls! 



My handsome guys

Matching handsome guys!


This little girl was having fun running away from Bennett - giggling and running!


Family portrait attempt 

Apparently Bennett didn't want to be in the photo



So this part is for Katie...

She thought that we didn't really try with her birthday sign since we ended up taking it to one of his toys...

Here are all the attempts!!

Checking out the sign

Wrinkling the sign

Close up looking at the sign

Tasting the sign

Clapping for the sign

His "you haven't gotten a good one yet mom?" look

Trying to hold the sign on his toy

A smile where you can see the sign... I'll take it!

My Chris baked me a birthday cake and got me flowers

Shopping with Bennett - I deserved a Starbucks after that trip!

Enjoying the nice weather




Chris did a 5k with some people from work - Color Me Rad - where they throw colored cornstarch (or something) at you as you run by... 

It rained but Bennett and I were planning on going to watch. Instead we just met daddy outside to see him covered in color before he got cleaned up

Yes... That's a tutu :)

He's moved on to pushing 2 toys at once... But still not walking on his own!

Any day now!
