Benton at 21 Months


This sweet thang is 21 months and a pure bundle of energy.  He makes us laugh, ensures that we never have a dull moment, and lights up our lives!  I had no idea how wild life could be until I had a little boy.  It is so weird calling him a little boy, but that is what he is turning into right before our eyes.  I have never known a child who enjoys life more than Benton does.  He is happy and easy going most of the time!  Some updates on our angel baby...

Teeth:  I mean I seriously have been expecting Benton's 2 year molars to pop up any second, but nothing yet.  He has been chewing on his fingers and acting a little fussy lately, so I figure it won't be long now.  

Eating:  The boy still loves to eat.  I have noticed that he likes milk more nowadays, but we normally just give him one glass a day.  It is safe to say that he will eat just about anything.  His favorite breakfast food is sausage.  There are only a few things that he doesn't like....pb&j sandwich and cheese are the only things coming to mind at the moment.

Talking:  Benton is talking a lot more these days.  He will attempt to say most of the things that you ask him to repeat.  Ball, thank you, momma, daddy, please, dog, truck, sausage, and bat are a few that come to mind.

Tricks:  Benton boy is a dare devil.  He is fearless and has many tricks that make me a nervous wreck!

Size:  I think he weighs about 28 pounds.  He is in 2T clothes, size 5 diapers during the day and size 6 at night.  

Sleeping:  Benton takes a pretty consistent nap from 1-3.  He goes down for bed about 7:30 and (knock on wood) has been sleeping until about 6.  He cries some during the night, but we do not get him.  Hopefully, he will be completely sleeping through the night by the time baby sissy gets here!

JJ gave the babies a ride in the baby pool!  They LOVED it!
