The Zoo

We've had fun visiting the zoo. We met our friend Jane and her son Eli at the zoo. It was great to see them both and meet Eli for the first time.

Sam talks about the zoo and wants to go all of the time. He wants to see the dolphins and the sloth the next time we go.

We also spent a day with our neighborhood friends at the zoo. It will be fun to take trips to the zoo this summer with all of our friends.

I am looking forward to bringing the boys to the farm to see the baby animals. The farm will be open the next few weekends at the zoo.

Ben is 4 months old!

Here are some new pictures from the last month. Ben is now 4 months old and has started eating solids. He loves to play with his hands and watch his brothers. He has started giggling and loves to talk. I'll post some videos soon. We went to his 4 month visit today and he is now 20 lbs 5 oz and 27 1/2 inches.

Bubba Eats

Ben tried food for the first time a couple of weeks ago...and loved it. He doesn't always eat that much but eagerly opens his mouth when the spoon aproaches. He tries to help with the spoon. He loves the little sip of water out of a glass I give him when he's finished.

Ben

Ben is starting to use his hands more everyday. He tries to grab at toys and puts them in his mouth. He loves his brothers and smiles and moves his whole body in happiness when they come into the room to talk with him. Last night he slept from 7 to 7 and only woke up one time! What a treat for me!

My little scientist

Sam has been into everything lately. He's painted the windows with yogurt and squirted glue down the front of the cabinets this past week.

So proud of his mess!

Ben is 3 months....chatting and smiling all of the time!

We just spent a week at my parent's cabin.....I had to include this picture of Sam peeking through the snow fort we built. We had a great time!

Ben is full of smiles these days. He also loves to chat....he has a great voice and already is using it loudly. I think he knows he needs to in order to be heard. We went for a walk today to enjoy the break from cold. Ben loves to look around at the trees and sky. Charlie rode his bike around the block and Sam tried out his new "bike". It was great to be outside again!
