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

What a smile- he is a happy little boy when he is in Mommy and Daddy's bed!

So So sweet I love pictures of the two of them together- recently Christian started going up to Benjamin and say hold you hold you please!!

Taking a bath I think that he is going to like the water just like Christian at least we hope!

HONEY!! Please and I'm gonna get you!

Well Christian is learning by leaps and bounds. It seems like he is learning so much everyday.

HONEY~ This one is so cute the first time he said it was when we were on our way back from Charleston a couple of weeks ago. There was really bad traffic on 95 and all the cars slammed on brakes well Ed was driving and slammed on breaks and I said HONEY!! Well when we stopped and everyone around us stopped from the back seat we heard this little voice go HONEY!! and then he said uh oh! It was so cute- now he will go around the house and sometimes you hear him say Honey! :)

Please- We have been working on getting Christian to say please and thank your without prompting him he is learning but some times we have to remind him by saying how do you ask or what do you say. Well the other day we were getting ready to go out and since we have new carpet we don't allow shoes on the carpet so we were sitting down putting Christian's shoes on and I said now it is Mommy's turn. Well Christian walked over like he was going to get my shoes and I said are you going to bring Mommy her shoes to which he tured around and looked at me so seriously and said PLEASE. Sometimes it is not what we teach them but what they teach us!

I'm gonna get you~ Yep I guess this counts as his first sentence. He has been saying things like Brown Bear Brown Bear or Shh Baby sleeping but now he says I'm gonna get you! He is so funny we will be playing with the toys or just acting funny and sometimes we tell Christian I'm gonna get you. Now he has started telling us I gonna get you! It is awesome to hear him talking and learning so much everyday.
