My sweet Ben is nine months old today! I was pretty bad (meaning terrible) about taking Ben photos this month, so this is why you get our nine month photo shoot thrown in, as well as a preview of this year's Christmas card. Ben wasn't the most cooperative model for his nine-month photos, but I thought the pictures captured Ben in all his silly glory. My goodness he is a silly little man!
Ben has had a busy month sprouting teeth and CRAWLING! He had two bottom teeth, which made him an appropriate little jack-o-lantern for Halloween. Sadly, he also had pink eye so he was a pretty sad looking dragon this year. Super cute, but super pathetic.
Ben just started to army crawl this week. In fact, today was his first "long distance" crawling adventure when he moved from the den to find me in the kitchen. I just love the pitter-patter of little hands! Henry has taken it all in stride and is handling Ben's mobility very well.
When we found out we were having another boy I was a little nervous about nicknames. Henry has always been "Buddy", and I wanted to make sure that nickname wasn't used for this little guy. Thankfully, we've been pretty good at using "Buddy" for Henry, though we've definitely slipped now and then. Ben usually goes by "Ben-Ben" and sometimes "Sweets". How could you not call him "Sweets"?!?!
Ryan and I had our first night away from the boys since January. It was glorious! We went to Chapel Hill to see some friends and go to the football game. We had a wonderful time, and the boys were in great hands with Nana and Grandpa. Thanks again for watching the boys!
