Down Home Strawberry Pickin'

Today was another fun day with the boys. We went to Vollmer Farms to pick some strawberries. It was a ton of fun! The weather was wonderful and the berries were great! Christian really enjoyed himself I think he ate as many strawberries as we brought home. :)

2 Months Old

Wow it is so hard to belive that Benjamin is already 2 months old. He is a wonderful baby- we could not be more blessed. He is so happy and smiles a lot. We are waiting for his first laugh! He is doing well with his schedule. We go next week for his 2 month checkup so I will post his stats then. For the most part he just hangs out during the day. He loves to swing and play on his baby einstein mat. Of course one of his favorite things to do is watch his big brother- sometimes he can't take his eyes off of him. He really likes to cuddle and will sleep while you are holding him any chance he gets. (we try to get lots of snuggles now because we know it wont be long he will be running around and those little snuggles will be few and far between.) He still has most of his hair and his eyes seem like they are going to be brown right from the start. He is just a blessing- a lot of people ask don't you wish you had a girl. NO WAY! We love our boys and wouldn't have it anyother way. It is amazing to think that we were told we might not be able to have children but God has blessed us with 2 healthy wonderful boys who we can tell are already going to be the best of friends!

Here are some random pictures from the month- I will try to do better about updating going forward!
Check out that cute face- Who do you think he looks like?Playing on his Baby Einstein mat- he loves to look at the animals
We got Christian a T-ball set to play with he loves it!!

It is really cute and it fits for now we live in a jungle and have 2 boys who are always Monkeying around :)
He was so excited to see everything set up in his bathroom!
