we are sick!


Ben and I are home on a Wed. cause we both have strep. You wouldn't know it in Ben; except for a bit of coughing he is his usual self...he is currently undressing his favorite bear, Bearsly, who exclaims "i love you" when you squeeze his arm. Ben loves this little guy, especially after he has been de-clothed.


A typical boy, he loves his cars and trains. He has a love/hate realtionship with a big bucket "choo choo truck" of his- he loves it but then gets very frustrated with it too...dashing it to the ground saying, "ohhh my god!!!!" and exhaling heavily. Another favorite activity of Ben these days is turning his table upside down and pulling off the legs. Terrific. Then of course, there's his books-he has us read each one I dunno 8 or 9 times in a row.


As for the kitchen... it's pretty much just a place to dump stuff. He clangs the pots and dumps all the stuff. And he has so far ripped off the oven door and one faucet handle (note to self-next time get the indestructable more expensive one).


Little Boo enjoys hanging out on the cat condo and just beig his adorable self.

Nice Weekend

Ben got to spend lots of hours this weekend socializing with all his adoring fans. Yesterday we went to Syl's and spent some time at Lakeshore, the teacher's store. Ben and Syl tore it up with musical instruments and discovered a lovely demo of moon sand. Then he went to Lee's where he was of course the best playmate Buster the puppy could find. We spent the night and he even got to sleep with Meghan for a bit. Earlier when she tried to hold something he was playing with he said "my work....ok?"

This morning after a lovely breakfast of pancakes he chilled with Poppy on the couch and then we went out for a haircut. While he was incredibly well behaved, he still got a crooked doo-can't wait for it to grow out a bit!
