Gravity

Benjamin has discovered gravity. Not that my son is the next Isaac Newton or anything, but he has learned that if he's holding something and let's it go, it drops. Currently, every toy that was in the pack-n-play with him 30 seconds ago is making its way to the ground. And he's quite proud of himself. Everything gets dropped or thrown nowadays. If I'm really lucky, Addie is around to pick it up and give it back to him, just to start that cycle again.

It's really nice fall weather here right now, about 74 degrees. We went to the Can Do playground with Onkteb and Aunt Gail. Addie and Onkteb are two peas in a pod. She loves him so much.

Ben is also free standing now! Just pops himself right up, even if only for a second. Walking can't be far away. I look forward to the wobble I'll soon be doing, with a 2 year old's hand in my left hand and a 1 year old's hand in the other.

Finally, Ben's love hierarchy is no secret. At the top of his list is his big sister Addie. Talk about complete adoration. Nothing makes me happier than to see the two of them interacting and actually being able to see the love flow between them. Ben thinks Addie rocks. She can do no wrong (he's obviously mistaken, but he's only 10 months old). She can make him laugh at the drop of a hat. It's awesome.




Here's some bottom teeth...3 in total now

And some top ones too!

Here's what Ben does now when he's nursing. That's my arm :) He covers his eyes like he's got a headache.


And finally adorable Addie, with Elmo backpack on, "going to school." Look at those tendrils!

Have a great weekend! We're going to enjoy the fall weather and be outside a lot!!
