18 Weeks (4 months!) & Still Growing Strong


Paul and I were watching TV and the man started pretending to cry to get our attention. As soon as we would turn toward him, he would smile. Cute... for now! :o)

We've had kind of a chill couple of weeks. After a few weeks off from softball for the 4th of July break, we are now back into it full swing with 4 games a week between Paul and I. It gets a little crazy around here but the season is so short and we really love it.

Sunday was probably the biggest highlight of these weeks. We started off in the morning at Pancakes and Prayers at the Siegel's house and then my mom was able to swing through town for a few hours. Her boat is currently docked in Coos Bay and a friend of hers was driving to Woodburn and back so we met her at the freeway and brought her over to Philomath for a visit. Unfortunately, she did not get a lot of time to get to know her grandson (hasn't seen him since he was 3 days old!) but she got to see him get his four month portraits taken. We went to K-Mart because the photographer was highly recommended in some of the mommy groups I belong to. Although slightly disorganized, the photographer was fantastic with Benjamin and we got some really good shots. He was flirting with her and smiling like crazy. He is such a happy boy! (We have online access to the photos, but we can't download them in any way. We'll eventually get some sent out, but if you want to see them now, email me for the password. That will have to suffice until the prints come!) These will be the first framed pictures of him in our house! We are such slackers!

Anyway, short post this time, but enjoy the pics!

Wow! You are so great at posting and putting up pics. I'm so impressed with you!!! Benjamin is becoming quite the cutie pie. I can't believe he is four months old already.

Benjamin is so so so cute and he keeps getting cuter. Have you gotten together with any of the ladies in the group? Wasn't it you who said that your husband works on Saturdays??? My husband usually takes picures of weddings on saturdays, so if there is ever a saturday when you want to go on a walk.. let me know!!
