Benjer Douglas

That's his current nickname. Ben is just all boy. He walks around finding heavy things to lift and makes manly grunting noises as he does it. He is way more coordinated than Charlotte was. But he's non talking a ton. We've got the usual mama and dada. He "says" Maddie and Grandma, but he still loves to Uhh Uhh for everything. Not my favorite noise. He loves to give hugs and kisses to Charlotte's babies which has got to be one of the cutest things I've ever seen. When he sees Doug kiss me, he comes over and demands that he be allowed to kiss both of us. He loves to put on shoes. Charlotte's are the best as he can actually take a few steps in them. He is in a Mama mode. Now, some of you may argue that he's always in a mama mode, but this is above and beyond that. He loves to slide down the slide with Charlotte and lets her manhandle him all day. Car rides are getting a little better. He loves to be in Nursery with Charlotte at church. He really thinks he's one of the big kids. He's gotten 3 new teeth recently which has made for some long nights. Any time anyone starts to sing or he hears music he dances side to side. Oh my goodness, it makes me laugh no matter what mood I'm in.
