My happy boy!!

Ben has been smiling a lot lately and talking a lot. It is sooooo cute. Here is a video of our sweet boy! We had a WIC appointment earlier this week and they measured and weighed Ben. He is 9 lbs 8 oz, and 22 inches long. That puts him at the 25th percentile overall. I think weight was 25th, and length was 50th. He is a long and skinny boy. Not a lot of meat on him but his is still a cutie. He is a very good baby.

My growing boy!

Ben is getting so big. He is one month old now. It went by faster than I wanted (of course). He is kind of smiling. We talked a little bit this morning. He was trying to copy me. It was super cute. He is such a sweetheart. He looks so much like Zoey when she was a baby. At his 2 week appt. he weighed 8 lbs. 2.3 oz and was 21 inches long. Both him and Zoey will go into their next doctor's appt August 6th. Anyway, here are some updated pictures of Ben.

Had to get some naked pictures

My Goofy and BIG Girl!!

Zoey is such a goof. She has been into matching everything. She knows her colors very well and will match green to green, even if the greens aren't the same tone. She really likes to pick out her clothes as well. She is very proud of herself when she gets dressed all by herself and matches the clothes. Some don't really match but if we are not going anywhere then I will let her wear whatever she wants. Her is an example of her matching her clothes.


The green shirt is not the same as the green pants, but she was very proud the she had matched it. She has also worn all yellow. Again, yellow are not the same, but still proud of herself.


The other day she was playing with her blanket just before bed. I had Ben in my lap and was taking some pictures of him when she asked me to take a picture of her doing this:

Not quite sure what she was really doing, but she thought it was funny and I thought it was funny that she asked me to take a picture of her doing that.

She has also been such a great big sister. She has been so concerned about Ben all the time. Any time he cries, she asks "Oh, Baby Ben is sad", or she say "Is he hungry or something?" So good. We went t o our ward 4th of July Breakfast at Biddlewood park and her friend Grace was looking at Ben in the stroller and moved the stroller a little bit and Zoey started to cry saying"Grace pushed Ben". She is going to be so protective of him. It will be so fun to see what she is like when he does something she doesn't like. I laid Ben on her bed and she thought it was fun to lay by him and of course I had to get pictures.

She was concerned that he wasn't looking at the camera so she helped him.
What a good big sister!!!!
