B-log: 15 months (going on 15 years)

Whew, time is flyin' by. It seems like this past month Bennett has turned into a little adult. A very, very small adult.



* He's still trying out new words each week. Lately its been: Done, All Done, Dat, And Dat (he knows grammar already?), and Haaa (for hot).

* He understands pretty much everything you say: let's go change diaper, take a nap, go take a bath, brush your teeth, get a book, bring Momma a beer. Oh...well, we're not quite there on the last one but workin' on it.



* He brushes his teeth. He tries anyway - he basically just chews on it.

* He helps with laundry and vacuuming

* He can give "knucks" and likes to see you "blow it up!"

* He throws temper tantrums and hits when he doesn't get what he wants. And those are fun.

* He loves, loves, loves being outside. I'm ALL for that - I'm so glad he likes playin' in the dirt and leaves and picking up sticks. But he loves it so much he screams when he is forced to come inside. And that's fun too.



* He dances. If the Rolling Stones come on the radio he's beeboppin' his head and rockin' to the music and if Simon & Garfunkel come on, he just sways his head and body back and forth. How does he know to do that? Kid's got rhythm!

*Oh and he even danced to the Time Warp and Hot Patootie on Halloween!!
He loved it.
I Loved it!!
We ALL LOVED IT!!!!

Fall pics

Cassie took some incredible photos of Bennett in his new Montana tee from Dig This Chick. These are probably some of my favorite pics she has taken of him so far. Thanks Cassie!!!
