Bananas, Band-Aids, and Boogers.

Yeah, we said it - Boogers. Our child likes to stick his finger in his nose for "mocos". Not a FAVORITE in our household. The more attention we give - the more we nourish his habit. And, Mami is writing this so one day Benjamin will be mad at her for telling "everyone" his business.

As previously mentioned, Benjamin loves his band-aids - every tiny boo-boo gets a band-aid. Of course, the Band-Aids have the Cars characters on them - all the more enticing to get a scrape. The cute factor (although already cute) is that little B. confuses his words and says he wants a banana because he is so excited to get his Band-aid.

What have we done this week? A whole lot of relaxing and hiding from the heat. When you google the "Lazy Dog Days of Summer" - our family photo should pop up...(really, don't do this - it's not true)

Books of the week:

The Big Rig (we can read this one to him with our eyes closed - Mami suspects this one might turn up missing in the near future - at least for a few weeks)

Cute word mix-ups for the week:

Yoda is called "yoga"
Goof-ball is "goose" ball.

Downward dog:

Being Cute:

We captured a mini video of Benjamin requesting us to sing, "Bingo", "Wheel Bus", and "Donald"...


And, yet another video treat:
Benjamin "hiding" and well digging for treasure...

Till next week.
