Benjamin at 1 year

Yes, our little baby, Master Benjamin, is already 1 year old. This date last year at 7:06am Benjamin joined our family.

This month has been fun watching him master walking and of course venturing up the stairs.  Coming down the stairs is a work in progress, but we're getting there.  He loves to push around our new Little Tikes grocery cart, but shows some frustration when it gets stuck in certain parts of the house.

The best part about turning one is no more formula! He’s made the switch to whole milk with no problem, and seems to really like it. The second best thing about turning one is getting to turn him around in the car. It’s got to be better than facing backwards, and he seems to really enjoy looking around at the scenery.

We gave Ben a strawberry shortcake on his actual birthday and he demolished it, unlike his Sister who didn't even want to put her hands in it.  Surprisingly there was not a lot of cake in his hair or on his clothes.

 Looks like he's checking under the plate for more strawberries.

Happy Birthday Ben!  We love you!
