Some Pictures of Benajmin

So here are a few pictures of Benjamin from the last month.




This was Benjamins first experience with Spaghetti. It was really cute and he even slurped up some spaghetti.


We gave Benjamin a biter biscuit to eat while we were eating dinner and we looked over and he had fallen asleep with it hanging out of his mouth.


No, this is not chocolate. Michael and I started some seeds in cups and they were on the table and somehow Benjamin got to a cup and pulled it down and started eating the dirt. Yummy!

Nativity

So we finally got our Nativity set done. We wanted to get it done before Christmas but we didn't get it done until January. But here are some pictures. Michael and I had a lot of fun painting together.

These are the shepherds and their sheep and the donkey.








These are the wisemen.






Mary, Jospeh, and Baby Jesus






Here is a picture of the whole Nativity Scene.


And here are pictures of Mary and Joseph before we sprayed them. I kind of like the look of them unsprayed more, but such is life.


Our Nativity didn't come with a camel so Michael's parents bought us one, but I haven't painted that yet. I will post a picture when I get it done.

Also, see if you can decided who painted what piece.

A Year Old

My sweet little Benjamin is a year old now! I can't believe how fast the time has gone. I just got his pictures downloaded even though his birthday was March 3rd. On his birthday we went to the doctor and he weighed 20 lbs. 10 oz. and was 30 inches long. That puts him in the 18% for weight and the 59% for weight, but we can now turn the car seat to facing forward which I like because I can see him while we are driving. On Saturday we had some friends come over for his birthday and we ate cake and the babies played. Here are some pictures from his birthday.

Here are pictures of him opening his presents.






Yummy cake! He started by just picking at the cake and being very dainty about it, but then decided he could put more in his mouth. When he was getting full of cake he shoved it into a hole at the top of his tray and started eating it from there. It was funny!
