Summery Spring Day

Last Saturday here in Sacramento we reached temps into the 90's and it was so delightful! We had just finished an awesome Chipotle dinner and were basking in the warmth in our backyard. Ben was in a fine mood as well. We got him smiling and laughing and of course I just couldn't help but, take a bunch of pictures.

Love those pigs

First time grass sitter... not much of a fan.

Look at those baby blues.

Sweet Potatoes

On April 17th we gave Ben his first veggie... sweet potatoes! It was pretty exciting and he seemed to really like it! Since giving him sweet potatoes he's also tried prunes, pears, carrots, and squash. He doesn't make faces at any of them in fact he gets really excited for that spoon to enter his mouth and starts to cry out at times if I don't feed him fast enough! 

First time cereal eater

Yesterday was the first time Ben tried solids. We gave him just the rice cereal and he gave some pretty funny faces. He didn't seem to hate it but, also didn't seem to love it either. He made a pretty good mess though! *Note to self no long sleeves or pants next time*

Happy Easter

Sitting in our chair yesterday enjoying the Easter day sunshine and our little bunny ears & shades (thanks gramma!)

My future is so bright I gotta wear shaaaades.

Driving Lesson

Nick had to move his truck back into the driveway the other night and he thought... 'heck why not teach the baby how to drive'!

More sitting...

Forgot about these ones... he actually smiled for me and the camera!

Sittin' Tall

We have a growing boy on our hands! He is now sitting up by himself and is loving it. He still wobbles a little but, for the most part he's good to be left on the floor alone! He has discovered his toys now and is intrigued by all that they have to offer! Ben also thinks that Kitty is a toy too. She is still skittish around him but, is doing really well most days and will even walk by and let Ben grab her back hair without jumping or biting. If I did that I would get it from her for sure!!
