Aquarium of the Americas

While we were in New Orleans we went to the Aquarium of the Americas. Ben and Trent had so much fun! They are already BFFs.

Happy 9 Months!

At 9 Months Ben learned to shake his head "NO" while eating. He loves prunes but it is more fun when mommy misses your mouth and they get EVERYWHERE!

So I am just 17 Days late. I have been a bad blogger lately but Ben is not just mobile anymore he is a MANIAC! He is constanstly busy. He is no longer content just sitting and playing with one toy he goes back and forth across the playroom touching and pulling up on every toy he crosses. So to all of you that have bought Ben a toy, book, table etc. It is getting use nothing goes untouched in Ben Parkers way!

There are so many things that I love most about Ben this month. when he is being a Maniac in the playroom and doesn't even know I am in there or just when I think he doesn't care I am reading or singing. He scoots up to me he starts looking up at me and opens his mouth for a big slabbery kiss. And as I am saying Thank You he is already all the way across the room. and acts if it never happened but he will do it several times a day :)

I love that he is so Smiley! He will smile at anyone. I love it at the grocery store when little old ladies talk to him and say how cute he is that he just eats it up and will give them the best smile. And their reaction is priceless and makes me feel like we have done a good deed for the day :)

What I love most about Ben this month is how excited he gets when Da Da gets home. I have always tried to make a Big Deal about Da Da coming home. And it has paid off. We are usually in the playroom when Bo gets home and as soon as Ben sees him he stops what he is doing and scoots super fast to Bo and starts climbing up his legs.

Ok so there are so many things I love about him I could go on and on.

Ben's first fat lip

He lend over to pick up a toy and face planted...those teeth are sharp! It was also his first shed of blood it wasn't much but it was enough for me to ALMOST freak out. He didn't even care and the fat lip was gone by morning! He is already a ruff and tuff BOY.

The Boisclairman's

Here is The Boisclairman's. Bo's snowman was as tall as me. I should have got in the picture so you could see how huge these snowmen were. This wasn't like any other snow we have had in Texas. Usually to make a snowman that comes up to your knees you have to use all the snow from the front yard and back yard. But not yesterday all three of these snowmen were built just from the snow on one side of the front yard. Bo was making the the balls so big that it took both of us to lift it. Well I couldn't lift it so he would have to start over. He never got down that he should start rolling the ball starting on the other side of the yard so when he was done rolling he didn't have far to carry the ball. But everytime he would have a huge gigantic ball that he would have to carry across the yard. It was so hilarious but I guess you had to be here. We aren't professionals but we make a great Snowman Family :)

Something is missing

Ben trying to figure it out

We forgot Cujo

Now here is the complete Boisclairman's. (I forgot the yellow snow for Cujo)

He had so much FuN!!!

All he needs is some skies and the slopes...and a helment

Just Chillin

Maybe we should move to where it snows more often because Ben loved all of this snow. He would crawl back and forth from the front door to the back door. Just smilling at the snow. He loved it! Ben is really happy in the 3rd picture because dad called and said we were going to build a snowman when he got home.

Snow Day

This is Ben about 30 minutes ago. Doesn't he make such a beautiful snow baby!
