Benjamin's Story

Benjamin says, "Merry Christmas" to everyone. He hasn't figured out what presents are yet, but by next year, I'm sure he will!

Here's the money shot... and by money shot, I mean they charged us $40 for this one digital photo. Ben did great with Santa, pulling his beard and smiling at him and at us.

Here's a Christmas photo of Ben and his mom. She's very pretty and he's very handsome with his slicked over hair.

On Pup's birthday, we went to the Cherry Creek Mall and had Benjamin meet Santa for the first time. While we were there, we took some holiday photos.

Here's a cute shot of Benjamin with his cousins and his aunt. He was practicing his clapping for them.

Here's a nice photo of the three of us on Thanksgiving. We had a very nice time with them all and we will be sad when we move away!

Ben was very proud of himself standing and holding himself on this railing at Stephen and Anne's. Funny kid.

Ben got to see a ton of family this month. We went to Laramie for Thanksgiving and here he is with his two cousins, Amy and Lisa. They had fun feeding him curry soup and cheese bunnies.

Here's another nice photo of Ben with his Grandma.

Grandma came to visit. Benjamin, Jeanette, and Grandma had fun at the zoo. We kept it pretty quiet the rest of the weekend

Ben spotted this big lizard and decided to stand and check him out. This confirmed that the little stinker only doesn't stand and crawl because he doesn't find anything interesting enough to merit the extra effort!

Another photo near the giraffe area at the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo.

We get kicked out of the house a ton for showings so we decided one Sunday to go down to the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo in Colorado Springs. They had a cool feed the giraffes exhibit. It was a nice zoo.

Benjamin is hitting his teen years early. Sometimes he shies away from Jeanette and me when we try to kiss him. How quickly his youth went by!

Benjamin likes his crib these days. He gets pretty cozy with his blankets and his bears!
