Loving this beautiful summer weather!
No spring season around here. It seems we leave winter and dive straight into summer. No complaints!
Ben is doing really well despite running his first fever ever last week. He was very lethargic, lacked appetite, but his fever wasn't high enough to warrant a visit to the doctor. Oddly and fortunately he didn't show any symptoms of a tummy bug, so we've no idea what the problem was, but he's back to his old self now.
Mommy and Daddy have been busy selling their house and are in the process of buying a new one. This means Ben will have a nice, little yard to play in this summer. I can't wait... this boy needs some outdoor space to play in, and while the park is a lot of fun, it's always a pain to pack up for an hour or so. Once we have a fenced-in yard Ben can be in and out of the house all day.
Ben's doing really well with self-feeding. He's getting the hang of dishes and cutlery. It's so cute watching him attempt to use his fork a few times, to finally resort to just picking up the food with his hands.
Ben says "bye/bye-bye" all the time now. He doesn't say it to people though, he says it to inanimate objects, like Mommy's grocery list (which he's in charge of when we go grocery shopping), or his sippy cup (when he puts it in the sink), or to a door (any time he closes it).
Ben also loves loading the dishwasher. As soon as I open it he heads for the bowl cupboard and starts loading them in... they're clean, of course, but the mimicking is so cute.
I had a 16 month photo taken of Ben and it's adorable. I'll have to scan it and post it another time. I also have a slew of photos that I've taken around the house and at the park... I'll post them soon.
