Ben at 9 Months

Ben turned 9 Months about 2 weeks ago!  And, I have yet to take his 9 month picture :). Oh well! We like to call Ben, "Big Ben."  He is big and tough.  He gets into things and opens drawers that Oliver never would even dream of opening (or be able to open!)  Ben is everywhere.  He is determined.  He loves to eat.  He loves to be pushed on his red car outside. He loves climbing the stairs and pushing his walker everywhere. He still adores his brother, but is fighting back now if Oliver takes a toy from him.  Ben is passionate- the boy flings his whole body on the floor and screams if something goes wrong.  It is quite hilarious.  But, when that boy smiles, his smile lights up the whole room! It is the best!  We adore him and are loving seeing him grow and develop.

Here are his stats from his 9 month check up:
weight: 22 lbs 2 oz (75%)
height: 30 inches (95%)

I guess some things never change! :) (click on this link for an old picture of Oliver.)
