Social butterfly

So everywhere we go Ben says "Hi, how are you?" to anyone he comes in contact with. He's expanding his language skills but the funny thing is that not everyone can understand him and if they can and they respond they don't get the proper response from him, he just asks them AGAIN how they are, we've got to work on that. He is such a funny little boy and a source of endless entertainment. I love, love, love him!

My li'l guy

Funny

Ben has been very entertaining lately, just cracking us up. This morning in the bath, (he had to have one before we go to the gym because he still had paint on himself from yesterday's painting he was doing outside, he loves to paint but it gets on his knees, elbows, everyhere) I wanted to feel his molar that just came in and see if there were any others (bad idea) and he bit me, hard. I screamed, some not too appropriate words, he, of course, repeated me and then I couldn't stop laughing. I know, BAD Mama, but it WAS funny. So, what does he say, as tears are streaming down my cheeks from the pain and his humor?? He tells me I'M FUNNY. He loves to say funny, particularly when someone is laughing. They call him "The greeter" at the gym because of his friendly nature and wanting to say "Hi" to everyone that comes in to the daycare, then if they laugh he says "funny". However, he's the funny one!

Life is never boring

Having a 2 year old means never having a minute of boredom in your life. Ben is so active, needs to be active or else he finds things to get in to. Just this morning he took a stool in to the bathroom so that he could have a bit more height to reach for things he shouldn't have. Last week we went out to see The Dunn's and have dinner and before dinner Ben got to play with some of their neighbors, he just loved it. This morning we went to the splash pad at Desert Ridge and met the new Mom's and kids group we joined, what a great time that was! We look forward to many more of those meetups!
