Our Little Scarecrow

Saturday evening Sue and I stopped by to see Stacy and her kids at their Harvest party at their church. It was cute to see all the little ones dressed up. The kids were all having lots of fun. Our little Benjamin was dressed up as a scarecrow. He kept watching everyone as their were lots of kids in different outfits.Kelsey and Kaylee were ducks, Jordan a fireman just like his daddy and Latoya a very pretty princess.Ben kept giving Mary kisses and loves. Here are a few pics that we took.

Ben's daycare had a Halloween party this weekend. We took Ben to the party to visit his little friends. The children at daycare kept coming up to him for hugs and kisses. Ben is well loved at daycare. He is the youngest baby there. He is well taken care of.

Ben's 6 month check-up

Joleene and I took Ben for his 6 months shots. He had to have three shots. At least it's not four like it has been. It breaks my heart when I hear Ben cry. He really cried after that third shot...His little leg is bruise where they gave him his shot. I know he needs them but it's still so hard.. The good thing, he doesn't have to go back until he's nine months..

Ben is on the go so much. It's getting harder to take his weekly picture. We sit him in his boppy and he rolls over, turn over etc. We have to be fast as we never know how long he will stay still. The chair is no longer safe to take his pic. It's amazing how fast he's grown. It's so hard to believe he's the tiny baby that Jo and Jason brought home from the hospital. I love hearing his giggles and mumble jumble.

Here's a few pics that we took..Ben is now 28 weeks..He's looking more and more like a little boy and not so much a little baby...

Funny Ben

Ben is growing up so fast. It's hard to believe he's 6 months. He now has two teeth. When he laughs we can see his little teeth. They aren't all the way up yet but are getting there. He's such a good natured baby. I love being able to spend time with my little man. Yesterday I was sitting on the couch with Ben. He was playing with his feet. His feet finally made it to his mouth. so our little guy was sucking on his toes. It was so cute. I had to call everyone down to see Ben sucking on his toes. What a little character. So of course we got the camera and video camera out. He was so adorable.

He loves his vegetables but he's not able to eat fruit yet as he breaks out after he eats them. We think it's the acid in the fruits that is making him break out. So far he eats everything we give him. He usually makes a face when he frost tries it but ends up eating the whole container of baby food.

I wanted to share some pictures that we took of Ben this week. Enjoy! I do so enjoyed reading everyone blog.

Fryeburg Fair

Sue, Joleene, Ben and I spent a few hours at the Fryeburg Fair. It was a very hot day and a busy one. Next year we will definitely not go on a Friday.

We took Ben to the petting zoo. Every time we try to put Ben close to the goats he cried. He did not like them at all. He didn't mind the cows and other animals. We had a very nice day. I also put some of Ben 25 weeks pics on the slide show.

Sue and I are adjusting to living with Jo and Jason and Ben of course. Things are working out well. We do have to get up earlier to leave for work as it is no longer a 5 minute ride. I do enjoy being in the country again. I grew up in the country. It is definitely quieter than the city. I do enjoyed spending time with my precious little grandson. He is so a joy to be around.

Crazy Week

What a crazy week. It has been so crazy these past few weeks with packing and trying to get everything out of my apartment by the end of the month. Now I remembered why I hate to move. The first day we try to move some of our furniture it poured and then Adam's truck broke down. We had two truck s and then we were down to one. We then move some things Friday, Saturday and Sunday. What a job!! Sunday Joleene and Sue were loading the truck. I pulled a muscle so they weren't letting me do much. Next time I will definitely rent a truck. It's way too hard trying to get it down with trucks. Well, at least our stuff is at Joleene's and Jason. Where I'm not sure. It may be awhile before we find everything.

Ben and I had a quiet day. He talks so much now and is constantly moving. He hates to ride in the car. We have to sing to him to get him to stop crying. He's favorite is Old McDonald's and his other is the Ants go marching one by one. I hope he starts to like the car again very soon. We are suppose to be going to Fryberg Fair this Friday. I hope he's is better or we will be taking lots of breaks and singing lots of songs.

Here are a few pics that we have taken this week. It's had to believe he 24 weeks already.
