So much fun!

Benjamin is sick again and teething, so not the perfect baby at the moment, but besides this tough week, he's been so much fun and growing up so quickly!  He's eating (especially likes carrots), rolling over, laughing, sitting up and just all around a great guy!  We hope he gets better soon, we want our Benjamin back!

What we've been up to lately

As someone told me lately, I'm the worst blogger in the world. Yes, I know. I think about it often and take pictures constantly of Benjamin, but they are all stuck on my phone and not in the baby book or this blog. Bad mom, bad mom. We'll here's a blast of photos from the last couple months. Benjamin is growing like a weed - 90% in height and has lots of high water pants these days (still skinny enough to fit in 0-3 months) but way too short! I just broke out the 6 month gear, yikes. Recently, we've gone to the beach, been swimming, starting eating, drooling from teething we think, went to a fancy dinner and dressed up, rocked out in the sunshine (time for some baby sunglasses), been sick twice :( (damm daycare), had puppies surround me (mean mommy and daddy) and done lots of smiling cause I'm one happy dude!

Benjamin is the best!

Feel so lucky to have this little man in our life. And he's such a good baby. Goes to bed on his own, just wakes once, non stop smiling these days and loves to make noises.

The last 6 Weeks

Okay, I'm obviously no good at keeping this updated, but I have good reason. Mr. Benjamin Alexander Bastron, aka Mr. Serious has been keeping us busy to say the least. Oh, we love him so. As so many have said before of their own children, I can't imagine life without him. What a love bug!

I'm ready, but he's not

It's officially our due date, but no sign of Ben yet. Just lots of waiting on this little man. I look more pleased in the picture than I really am, but I'm trying to be patience. Lots of food and cut throat pitch played this long holiday weekend. Come out soon Ben, we're ready! My belly can't handle anymore.

The Nursery is ready

Well, I have to say, I'm pretty happy with the way that everything turned out. Ben's room is done!!! Thanks James, Tori & Mom!



Of course I could obsess over some imperfections (I hate the cheap press board built ins and bad dry walling), but I need to save my energy for what lies ahead very soon! Any day now according to the doctor. Will we have a turkey baby? This pop up timer is out. I think I've been a good sport until this past Thursday when just about everything has become uncomfortable. I never realized how much the average person bends down in one day until recently. Next pregnancy I'm getting one of these tools. My belly will thank me.
