A monster!!

Here is video from Aunt Gail and Onkteb playing at our house last Friday. Addie and Ben both have a certain affinity for "monsters!"

Benjamin is such a nuzzler and little lover. He's the kind of boy who hugs you right back. He's going to have a very happy girlfriend/wife one day. Yesterday while visiting Muddy and Guppy (who is immobilized until he gets his cast on on Monday), Ben was sitting in his highchair. Muddy leaned in to nuzzle his face, and he just leaned right back with the sweetest look on his face. Guppy even said, "Oh if only you could see his face." Pure heaven. He's also inclined to pat me on the back as soon as I pick him. So loving.


You wouldn't know it by looking at him, but apparently he's caught the KinderCare bug. Poor bub has been throwing up since yesterday morning. Goes about his business, eats, vomits, goes back to being happy Ben. Lots and lots of hot water laundry going on at this house!



Some Addie things: Today she wore her Ariel the Little Mermaid outfit that I got on clearance for $1.99, and when she put it on she asked me, "who buyed this?" I told her "I did." "No, who buyed this for me?" "Mommy did." "No, Aunt Gail did." Apparently only Aunt Gail gets her cool things. Brian and I discussed the future of conversations.... "Addie, who paid for college?" "Aunt Gail." "Addie, who waited in line for hours for the must-have Christmas toy?" "Aunt Gail." "Addie, who bought you a car?" "Aunt Gail." That's some stiff competition. But, you've seen the kind of monster she is, so at least you understand.



One final group of pictures, to show how jealous a Mom can be. How this happens routinely, I'll never know. Must be some testosterone scent thing! ;)

that's great . . . all the credit and none of the work! Ben's face when he was captured by the monster was brilliant - big grin! What a fun night!
