This little man is two years old!
We love Ben so much. He is sensitive, athletic, and thoughtful. His little personality is coming out more and more every day. We can't wait to see where life takes him. I love listening to him count to ten, dance, play ball, and conduct his choo-choos wearing high heels. He is one-of-a-kind and we love him exactly how he is.
Here are some of his favorites:
Books: Little Blue Truck by Alice Schertle, Mighty, Mighty Construction Site by Sherri Duskey Rinker and Tawny Scrawny Lion by Kathryn Jackson
Activities: Riding the lawn mower, playing catch, doing anything outside, reading, playing with his trains and running.
Food: Pancakes and apples
Song: I Am a Child of God
Benjamin was SO ready for his big day. He slept in and then was ready to PARTY! Gramps and Grammy came up yesterday and so they were here to share our birthday breakfast of breakfast casserole, oranges, and orange juice.
We then got ready for his birthday party. Grandpa and Grandma came and we had so much fun. Our little man would love life as a farmer. He calls the lawn mower the tractor and can ride on that thing for HOURS. So today was life on the farm...inside.
Benjamin was a little unsure about all of the attention he was getting while opening his presents but he soon got more into it. He is so loved and couldn't wait to get reading and playing with his toys. We had a great time playing with the kids and catching up with one another. We then had a yummy lunch and cake and ice cream.
Things quieted down and our little big man took a nap and hung out the rest of the afternoon with Dad and big brother and then we went out to dinner as a family. It was a great day celebrating our favorite two year old.
We love you, Benji.
