Bam bam

We should have named Ben B, Bam Bam because he is always banging on things. The louder the better. He bangs his fists on the high chair tray, he loves to bang pots (or anything heavy and loud) on the hard wood floor, he bangs toys or fists on the toilet seat and/or picks up the toilet seat and drops it (making lots of noise). His other favorite thing to do is to throw his music table, or any other object large or small. He is such a boy, solid and tough, football in his future? Also, I think he eats more than I do.

Abi Gabby is so smart I don't think there is much she doesn't know at this age. Her new favorite thing is puzzles. I'll find her in her room quietly doing a princess puzzle while Ben is napping. She repeats anything and everything I say and I find when she repeats my own words back to me they don't sound great, so I'm trying to use different words and lots of patience when she is frustrating me. This is when parenting scares me the most, when my actions could make an impact that will affect this child the rest of their life. So as we are trying to raise two children I also must better myself in every way possible way too.

By the way, family pictures were a disaster ;)
