Happy Thanksgiving!

We had a great time visiting family. Ben loved playing with his cousins, especially now that he is up on their level (i.e. standing). We tried to get a picture of all of them together, but something upset Ava so we didn't get a prefect one, but we'll try again at Christmas.

Since Ben's birthday is next week, we went ahead and celebrated it at Thanksgiving since everyone was together. He made a pretty good mess with his smash cake but didn't figure out that it was edible. He loved opening all his presents (and being the center of attention...he's definitely got that part figured out). And the Cowboys won. What more could you ask for? Hope you all had a great day too!

Ben on the Move

Here is a short video of Ben walking. He walks more than he crawls now, and usually will only crawl when he falls down, so he can get to something to pull himself up to standing again. And he is into EVERYTHING -- it's exhausting, but he's also more fun than ever. Still no words yet, but he is getting more creative in his babbling. It probably won't be too much longer. Tonight he found Boo's collar on the coffee table and wanted to put it on her. She was very good natured about it.

Kitchen Aid

Whenever I go to the fridge now, I have a little helper at work on the bottom shelves. He loves cold things.
