He has been playing like I’ve never seen before. It definitely has gone to the next level. This week has been THE most enjoyable with Ben ever.  (I think I say that every week but…)  Today, we had such nice weather, we were outside all morning.  He chalked up the driveway, tried to hoola hoop, swept, climbed up a hill with a walking stick, ran down the hill into my arms, jumped off our neighbors retaining wall one zillion times (not that high) and brought in the mail.  At one point, he was sitting on our small bricks alongside the driveway when I hear him saying, “Humpy Dumpy at on a wall.  Hump Dumpy had a geat faaaawl!”  With that, he falls backwards into the grass and gets hysterical.  It was the cutest thing.  He also surprised me last night by interlocking his train tracks together.  How awesome is that at 2.5?  He made a long wavy course all by himself!  I have to cherish every day because it is going so fast.  I love that kid and enjoy seeing him grow into such a fascinating, smart boy.

I have been so busy lately…..sorry for not posting.

Here is a bit of sugar to get you through the day.

                                                                                                                   A typical evening in our house when getting the monsta ready for bed.  Daddy helps him brush his teeth and sneaks in some kisses.  Ben gets the giggles when he is tired (for the most part), he makes a bunch of silly faces too….here, he breaks into song afterwards.   

I am part of a group called, “The Travelling Flickr Scarf”.  Sounds corny I know but in essence, is really cool.  The scarf was made by one of the girls who started the group.  Then it started travelling.  When a person gets it, they shoot it and send it on its way to the next person.  I kind of forgot I was even in this group because I joined so long ago.  It arrived at my doorstep yesterday.  I took a bunch of shots.  Here is one of them. 

The other(s) are on flickr.  Check it out…..

Love you!

Hope you are having a great day!
