Big Ben...

is now 9 monthts old! He has so much personality and it really makes me wonder what he will be like a year from now..even though part of me wishes time would just freeze.

9 Month Appointment

21 lbs 9 oz (65th %)

29 2/4 inches (90th %)

He started standing on his own a couple of weeks ago. He still hasn't decided to take any real steps yet, though!

This is the face he makes when you tell him to "say cheeeese!"

Halloween 2010...

DASH!

Snuggle Bear

8 months old...

Half of a year...

I can't believe how much one little person can change in just six months. Or how much has changed just since these pictures were taken!

6 Month Appoitment

20 lbs 1 oz (90th %)

28 1/4 inches (95th %)

During this month, Bennett decide to start the army crawl, which quickly turned into a full blown crawl. I was hoping he wouldn't crawl as early as Landon did, because as soon as Landon started to crawl, my days of getting anything done were over. He got in to EVERYTHING. But Bennett is pretty content to just sit and play, as long as I am nearby.

Who doesn't love a giant cookie?

7 Months

Benny will eat anything and everything. We haven't found a single food that he doesn't like yet. I love it! But his favorite is mandarin oranges, which he is eating in the picture above. If you don't stop giving them, he won't stop eating them! He also figured out how to clap and started jabbering like crazy around 7 months.

Bennett and Landon all ready for church

5 Months...

Blogging has seriously fallen way down on the priority list lately. But I know if I don't document some of these things while I still remember them, I will be kicking myself later.

Between 4 and 5 months Bennett had two teeth come in simultaneously, and started rolling all over the place. By 5 months he was sitting up like a champ. He was also drooling ridiculous amounts! Seriously. I don't know if I have ever seen a baby drool this much. I know Landon sure didn't.

I can't believe it's been 4 months since I took these pictures!! It seems like I took them a few weeks ago.

Blessing...

We blessed our little Bennett on the 4th of July of this year. We had a lot of family in town for the holiday weekend, so it was fun to have loved ones there that normally live to far to attend otherwise. Thanks to all who came!
