Yes That's My Butt...and Ben:-)

Auntie Beth is miserable...she is sick of working, sick of being stressed...so Auntie Beth put on her Kauai shorts to remind her of a happier time...Kauai is in Hawaii and Auntie Beth was there 2 summers ago...gosh, I need a break...but I threw on my Kauai shorts, put a smile on my face...and forced myself to attend a pilates class instead...yeah, not even close to a vacation...

I usually take pilates every Wednesday night and every Saturday afternoon...my reward is visiting Ben afterwards...our routine is basically the same every visit...
First, Ben is unconcerned with me as long as I keep a safe distance...

then, he starts to worry that I'm only there so Mommy can leave...

Today I distracted him by asking him to go for a walk...still not convinced...

But eventually Ben climbs into the blue car Auntie Beth got him...you should've seen this Auntie roaming around from Target to Kmart to Toys-R-Us just for this specific car...but it's a hit with my Benjamin!!!

As his mom Lurene and I chatted-I'm the one pushing the car though, for serious-Ben would look back to get in on the conversation...our boy!
Once we got back into the house, Ben commenced with his solo playtime...he only needs a few minutes of it, but he goes over to his toys and touches as many as he can in about 7 minutes...eventually he brought over a talking book for me to read...many times...
BUT when Dad came home....
the wrestling began...Ben is actually winning...

he jumped on Dad quite a bit...
then he gave his Dad the sign to "stay down, please"...

our mohawk baby...Lurene says that Ben is ready for his first haircut and that the mullet has to go...sounded alot like Kasey talking about Lizzie in early August actually...

Ben was hiding from me, then jumped out to surprise me...he's actually very good at hiding himself fully behind his Dad...

My precious Godson...look at those dimples:-)

Tubby time is not fun for Ben...once the diaper is on again, he becomes a little less annoyed...but Ben is teething so as we near bedtime aka overtired time...
Ben screams screams screams...yes, we realized we should've taken photos with Auntie Beth before the meltdown...oopssss...my poor baby...his gums are so red:-(
so Auntie Beth gave Ben a kiss to make him feel better...
Tomorrow I have 2 auditions and 3 tax clients...YIKES!!
I love you lots, and miss you more-
xoxo Auntie Beth/Bethie/Beppy GBAKYS

  1. The H-W kids wish Ben could come to Ct and play with them. Looks like he and the three babies would get along great! I don't supposed Lurene would let you bring him home one of these times huh??? Great blog - one of my favorites thanks to the Ben pictures and, of course, the butt picture! We love and miss you!

  2. Wow, good blog (I'm not just saying that because we're in it). I'm surprised I found it as funny as I did because I was there for the real thing. You are a great narrator!
