So little time, so much to do.

Last week was our 100th blog posting! That's A LOT of coverage for one little person.

Little B. hit one of his favorite stomping grounds - the Children's Museum last week.

He liked the huge Flow Works contraption. It spilled/sprayed water everywhere which was ideal for the summer! The kids loved getting splashed.

The chickens seemed to make our little guy giggle.

Trying to figure out the vortex...

Our little sleeping beauty:

Once again, we headed to Late Nite Pie so Benjamin (Mami and Papi, too!) could have some playtime with his buddies Truitt, Phillip, and Lila. Seriously, what a smart concept - huge playground, decent jukebox, beer, and pizza. What more does a parent need?

Peek-a-boo:

Roller coaster of love...

Benjamin giggles when he is with his friends - he may be a little younger but he sure does admire them.

Father's Day was extra special this year. It included a water sprinkler for Benjamin and cousin Lilly to pounce around and quality time with Grandpa Guerrero. (Benjamin looks forward to seeing his Grandpa Gonzalez this weekend!) Benjamin had some reservations about the sprinkler and he wasn't fond of the water squirting his eyes so his playtime was minimal but Lilly loved the sprinkler. Lots of squeals of delight. Benjamin has a wonderful set of grandfathers, uncles, and his one and only Papi who love him immensely. He is seriously one of the luckiest little boys alive! On that note - Happy Father's Day EVERY day.

A late night out on the town resulted in a lion "tattoo" on Benjamin's arm. He is quite proud of his tattoo. He really LOVES his band-aids, too. He loves to show anyone who will listen to his plight about his boo-boos.
Don't mess with him - he has a tattoo AND a strawberry.

Our little guy is talking up a storm these days, he is on repeat mode - so we all must be on our best behavior when it comes to words. No more "bad" words - not that ANYONE we know says anything "bad". Right?

We are starting the celebratory mode for Benjamin's birthday. He is turning 2 next week - so from now on - it's a celebration!

So, in the spirit of Benjamin - laugh/giggle/smile with lots of love this week.

Till next week!
