Our Little Engineer

Here is Ben helping dad out with some Engineering calculations.

Learning how to measure using an Engineering Ruler

Okay, maybe not an Engineer yet, as most Engineer's don't try to eat their calculator.

Maybe he's trying to learn by eating the ruler?? P.E. Exam watch out! Ben is ready to go. (Note: Anything in his hands will try to go in his mouth, one way or another)

Leaping Lizards

We have found our tongue and it's so much fun to stick it out! Oh yeah, at daycare they call it lizards!

The Many Expressions of Ben

Ben cracks us up every day. Yesterday, he had a different expression every time I took his picture. Here are a few samples.

My Personal Favorite!

This is worth coming home to!

I walked in the door last week and look who was waiting for me! I love coming home to that face!

Ben's 4 Month Appointment

Ben had his 4 Month Dr. appointment on April 26th. He did really well. He was babbling away when the Dr. came in. While the Dr. was trying to listen to his breathing, he showed the Dr how GREAT he is at grabbing every little thing, and took a good hold of his stethoscope and pulled it towards his mouth. He did really good during his shots. He started crying before the nurses came in because he was hungry, so when he got his actual shots I couldn't tell if he was was crying because he was hungry or from the shot itself. As soon as he got his bottle he was much better. Something tells me, watching him get shots is not going to get any easier!

Ben's 4 month old stats:

Height 25.25 Inches 64%

Weight 14 lbs 31%

Hanging out waiting for the Dr. (He was so close to rolling over. I almost wonder if he would of been on the floor if he would of!)

Showing off his owies!

All Smiles & Laughs

Ben has been laughing and smiling so much lately. Here are a few shots of his smiles and a video of Ben laughing. The other day he laughed for an hour for no reason at all! We are very lucky to have such a happy little boy.

New Toys

Ben is really starting to enjoy standing and sitting up much more than laying down, so we decided to put his saucer together. He seems to really like it so far. He was a little tired because we put him in it right before bed time! There are lots of things for him to look and play with. Now off to the store to get 9 AAA batteries!
