Hello! Well since last time, Ben has been busy. He's getting so big. A few weeks ago, he rolled over from back to belly. He only did it once though. Then tonight, he rolled over from belly to back twice. Daddy was playing on the floor with him and he did it two times in a row. Then he decided he had enough and screamed. But that's a step up. So we'll keep going at it and maybe he'll do it consistently. I know, we are begging him to get going now. Then once he does, we'll be complaining that he's crawling and getting into everything.

His teeth are also getting close. I've been thinking for awhile that they are because he's been having teething symptoms for months now. But his two top teeth are getting so close. I can see them dropping. He's been drooling like crazy and chomping down.

Ben has tried all of the veggies and fruits. He likes to eat! So we are going to stick with these foods and keep eating them until his next peds apt. Then we'll see what they say to try next. He is a little piggy!

We made our Christmas cards. But you have to wait until you get them to see. So here is a sneak peak with a pic that we didn't use.

Ben loves to eat. Peaches. Yummy.

Our next update will be after Thanksgiving. We are having it at our house. Wish me luck with cooking. I hope I do well!

We're in our new house!!!

Here is our new house. We are getting settle in. So far we have painted one room, but that took 3 days. So we are taking a break from painting. Everything is unpacked. The house just isn't very homey yet because we are waiting to hang pictures until we paint. So it will be a work in progress,but it will look great when we are done and be well worth it.

As for Ben goes. Since last time, he has eaten green beans, carrots, sweet potatoes, and pears. He's done well with all of it. The only thing he hasn't like one bit is the peas. But I don't blame him. We'll try it again later. I don't have pics of the other foods because we were so busy getting packed and moving. I know, completely not like me. Benny also had his first Halloween. He didn't dress up because we were moving that day. He did wear a My First Halloween shirt though. And I didn't get a pic of that. What a bummer. I guess missing a few memories is ok, I won't let it happen again. I promise. :) Other than that, not much is new with us. Here's a pic of Ben sporting his new winter hat. Until next time...
