YUM....cereal

Ben has been cluster feeding in the evenings, so we decided to start him on cereal. He did pretty good for his first time. He didn't eat a ton, but seemed to enjoy it. The tough part was he kept trying to grab the spoon. I'll try to get some video up later!

Apparently, he can do it himself


And....we're done!

Best of Friends...well maybe not yet

On Saturday night we had a BBQ with the neighbors. We brought Ben over to hang out with their little girl. Usually, they do so well together, but for some reason tonight he freaked out the minute she started getting close to her! We had to put a barricade of toys between the two!

Sitting nicely before the freak out!

Eyeing her up to see what she is going to do....

Watching to make sure she doesn't cross the toy barrier! You can see the concern in his eyes.

Maggie behind the toy barrier!

This baby girl has the most beautiful eyes! Don't know what there is to be scared of!

There's a New Captain of the Vessel

We took Ben out boating for the last time last weekend. We went later in the day so it wasn't as hot out. He had a really good time, except he HATED wearing a life jacked. We ordered him a new one that is a little different style, so hopefully that will work out better. At the very end we put him in the driver seat. He was obsessed with the the throttle. At one point he pushed it down and pulled it back up! We got him on video doing it a second time. It was so funny.

Getting ready to leave to go boating!

He's ready to go!

He was a little tired when we first got out on the lake, so he drank a bottle and fell asleep. He kept pulling his hat over his face!

We are looking into getting a bimini cover, so for now to keep Ben out of the sun, we brought along an umbrella.
