my little rock star

this is the result of woman getting bored while watching the super bowl!

well it's been a couple of weeks because the only internet we have is in the studio (which is finished by the way) and i keep forgetting to ask matt for the key! but i remembered today. no big ben updates really. he is talking a lot more these days and tries at times to mimic what you say. i know he knows what he is saying because it is always very deliberate, i just don't speak the same language. he really loves being in his walker these days. he loves the freedom and banging into things. it's quite funny. he goes into the back hallway and yells-not because he's stuck, but because it echoes and he likes to hear himself. what can i say the kid likes the sound of his own voice.

he eats so much! he's eating more big people food because he wants whatever is on my our plates-even if he's already eaten!

love to all!

baby steps!

well folks...he did it! his first official step was taken last night-10 months & 5 days. he decided it was his birthday present to his aunt kristin! we had him corralled in between some couches in the youth room and he did it...small step for mankind, a BIG step for ben! it was great! matt and i both witnessed it so that was special since that only happens once in life.

also while corralled in the couches at the moment (yes, i'm at the church) he has learned how to climb onto the couch and off the other end! he's an adventurous one thats for sure. he keeps us on our toes and laughing more than ever.

who would've known that a giggle so sweet and pure could be so healing! pictures soon to follow
