Go Stros but most importantly - go Potty!

Benjamin had a great time at the Astros game. He ate lots of food, had lots of attention, and enjoyed staying up late.
He didn't really follow the game too much but he did enjoy watching the train celebrate a home run.
We were not able to stay for the entire game since they went to 11 innings. We didn't win but it was a great rally and a nail biter till the end of the game.
Rally time!


It's been a long time since we last took this photo...
My how things have changed.

Last year:

This year:

Our little monkey has expressed interest with potty time. He likes to sit on the pot and read. He likes to tell us that he has to go but casually sits for some chill time. Now, if he only would follow through with the whole potty idea... But, we love it and encourage his multiple sittings throughout the day. He also tells us when he goes in his diaper so we feel very encouraged about this new development. Hopefully this phase will last a while because we like it.
On a side note: Yes, we know his hair is getting very long. He will be going for a summer time "trim" in the near future.

Benjamin had a fabulous time at a playgroup today especially since it involved water. Water fountains make a very wet but an extremely happy child.

Hanging with his buddies Ryan and Charlotte in his favorite ride: a wagon.



Our favorite word from the mouth of our little babe:

Please: "Peas"

Benjamin is now officially 22-months old and counting. Two more months till yet another milestone - 2.

Till next week.
