It was fun to have Ben's 2nd Birthday with our family since we don't get many opportunities for family to be at their bdays, with us living so far away from each other! I love the "Birthday Boy" shirt and how it got passed on from his brother.
And here's my cute birthday boy sitting on Gram and Papa's flowery chair!
When Ben was born, the nurses said, "the look on my face was priceless". I had no words for a few seconds and when I finally came-to, I said, "wow, we have TWO kids now!" haha. Ben is such a ham. He is silly and sweet. He LOVES animals. He gives lots of hugs and kisses. He skips and hops around the house. He LOVES and wants to be just like Will. When he says, "Will", his tongue goes way outside his mouth to pronounce the "L's" in Will's name. In the morning, he comes right into our bed and gives me and then Matt a big hug and says, "Hi, Mommy!", "Hi, Daddy!" in his sweet little voice. He makes the biggest messes! He moves from one toy to the next and the next... He's pretty self-entertaining. I love this little boy of ours.
Ben and Lyla hung together and got along sooo well. I loved watching them interact. Nothing cuter than two toddlers being silly with each other!
The morning of his Bday, we met with the rest of the family at an awesome public pool right across the street from the Manti Temple. It was such a nice pool. The older kids got to go on the cool water slide while the rest of us hung by the neat whirlpool and flower squirters! It was a really nice place to hang!
Aimee and the kids!
Here I am, lookin' pretty huge!
For dinner later, we all pitched in for a big picnic! I got a small cake for Ben and after "Happy Birthday" was sung,
Ben devoured his HOMEMADE(delicious) ice cream and cake in a cup! He thoroughly enjoyed it!
Cake and Ice Cream faced Cuties!
Gram and Papa and they're awesome smiles!
Ben and Lyla eating bananas, Tucker(the kids LOVED him), and Luke, before bed.
It seemed as though Ben had an awesome birthday!
Happy Birthday Benny!
We love you sooo stinkin' much.
