Update . . .

When I was making cookies for Ben's party he was having a fit because he had a taste of cookie dough, but he wanted the whole thing. We settled on the mixer because it took a lot of time and effort for a little sugar high. He loved it! (This one is for you Grandma Linda! I already have a dough snitcher!)

Ben is in fact holding his very own controller, with his thumbs in the correct position no less! Yikes. He even knows how to turn on the TV and the xBox. I am in so much trouble!

Congratulations to Grandpa Dave and Cindy on their recent marriage! We had a dinner at our house to celebrate and somehow Ben ended up showered with gifts. He loves to kick his new ball around the house. (Watch out Aunt Kiersten, you may have some serious competition!)
