20 months old!

On the 19th, Ben turned 20 months old - can you believe how old he is getting? It's amazing. He is so full of energy and always on the go. He is "talking" like crazy - always having a conversation with us that we can't quite understand. :) But he's also picking up new words everyday and can put 3 words together now - most often it's "Where Dada go?" Ben always wants to know where Jim is - whether it's first thing in the morning and Jim is sleeping in or when we get home from work and Jim isn't home quite yet - it's really sweet. Ben continues to be a GREAT eater, though his range of fruit is limited to pears, peaches, blueberries and bananas. He is a great nighttime sleeper - usually going down at 7pm and getting up anywhere from 6.30-7.00am. He has been going back and forth between 1 or 2 daytime naps for several months now, so we decided to actively "push" for 1 nap. We'll be able to do more outside of the house, see friends who's children take one nap and also will make our vacation in Maui a little smoother if the 2 boys are napping around the same time (which is in 1 week!). Wish us luck on that one!

Fun times at Costco!
Nighttime snack with Dad
He loves chips and salsa

Almost 2 years old - wow!!! We love our Costco runs too - the only problem now is we got Chase a berry smoothie one time so now we can't get out of the store without one :)
