Ben Lately

Baby Ben is changing so much these days. Here are a few things he's been up to:
- He is quick to crawl anywhere he wants. Seems like he's extra fast when he's heading towards the potty or the trash can. Mommy is watching him like a hawk.
- He is pulling up on things and standing up on his knees.
- He is eating mostly all table food now. He loves beans, hamburgers, Cheerios and oatmeal.
- He has six teeth. Two on the bottom, three on the top, and a new one just broke through to make four on top.
- He loves to be entertained by his brothers and laughs hysterically when they say "boo Ben!" or make silly noises.
- He takes two naps during the day and sleeps all night.
- He is a super happy baby.
- He is very ticklish and laughs when you change his diaper. So much more pleasant than fussing.
- He puts EVERYTHING in his mouth. This week I have found the following items between his jaws: a button, a leaf, mulch, and dirt. Needless to say, anytime he coughs, I'm running to make sure he isn't choking. Fun times. This too, shall pass...Hopefully without any real choking incidents!
