Ben's First Cub Game

We took Ben to his first Cubs game this Saturday.

We all had a lot of fun and even though it was a little

cool outside Ben was excited to be there!

Ben got his free Build-A-Bear at the game, it was

a give away to the first 5000 kids.

Go Cubbies!!!!!!!!!

Marshall Pose

For any fans of How I Met Your Mother, here is Ben's immitation of one of the characters. A few episodes back, there was a montage of photos in which Marshall, played by Jason Segel, had the same funny look in each shot. Ben took this picture while eating dinner tonight.

Look what I can do...

I left Ben laying on the floor in the living room

and came back to find him like this.

I guess he can pull himself up...

Scooby Doo

Ben met his dad's and uncle's favorite cartoon character on Saturday at Ready, Set, Grow-a wellness fair for kids.

Bed head

This is how Ben looked when we got him up from his nap. He usually rolls around quite a bit when we first set him down. Most of that is due to the fact that he absolutely loves his mobile and gets so excited to see it. He must have been especially excited last night.

Play Ball!!!

We meant to post this on Monday. As you can see, Ben is very happy for the start of the new season.

Weekend with Grandma and Grandpa

Last weekend, Grandma Rose and Grandpa Jim came to visit.

So happy Grandma is finally here!

And now Grandpa is here too!

Trying to steal a drink from Grandpa. How can he say no to this smile?

Showing Grandma the park across the street.

So happy to be playing (and with no pants on).

Waiting for breakfast with Grandpa.

"What do you mean you and Grandpa have to leave?"

Saying goodbye.
