Benny

We love Benny so much. He just had his 15 month check up today. Yeah a little late. He is doing well. He got two shots and did great, he only cried for a couple seconds. Of course we had his blanket ready and that makes everything better. I have made two little washcloth size blankets that we can take around so he doesn't have to carry around his huge blanket and get it dirty. He loves loves his blanket. He is 80% for his head (that seems huge and I don't think he has a huge head, but o well), 20% for height and 15% for weight. Both kids have usually been around the 20% for everything. He just in the last week has started throwing tantrums but we are trying to ignore them eventhough they are really kinda funny in hopes that they will stop. He thinks that he is 3 years old and tried to keep up with Siena in climbing and playing with everything she does. He is always watching her and anything she does he has to do too. If she has a snack he has to have the same one too. He loves balls and to read books and gets so excited when daddy come home. He also loves to dance and can march but it is only with one leg so it's more like stomping his foot. I think ball was his first word. He can say bye bye, hi, thank you, ball, no, me, go go go, mama and oh oh and he can make the sign for more and all done. Whenever he sees a dog he gets way excited and starts barking. He loves dogs. If you ask him what a dinosaur says he can roar and its the same sound for a lion. We are working on what a cow says. He knows where his nose and mouth are but he usually points to ours instead of his. He loves to sing and loves to get the singing book out at church and sing along really loudly. He's so much fun and we love him and as Siena says it's not baby Ben anymore it's Benny boy!
