Both William and Ben had a fantastic summer, and here are some more pictures during William's first month here. Enjoy!
Ben and Daddy LOVE to cook together. Below, they were making COOKIES! Ben is always so excited to help.
All Ben wants to do is cuddle with the baby. All the time. Sometimes too much. :) Here, he was SO proud to show William his big boy bed. And the fact that William laid down with him for a little bit... well, that was just simply the best.
We had such a great time when the Schreiner clan from Iowa came to visit us soon after William's birth. One of the best things was that the kids has a slumber party -- Ben's first sleepover! As you can see below, both Owen and Eden made their beds on the floor in Ben's room, and they all napped and slept in the same room. It was a riot to watch Eden and Owen on the monitor --- they were having stuffed animal fights, doing a little wrestling.... all the while, Ben just stayed right in his bed, presumably watching :)
We took the boys to the Como zoo, and our favorite exhibit was the gorillas. How cool are they!!?!
Model child....
This is Ben's sticker wall for going poopy on the toilet. He really is quite proud of it!
Funny story. When we were in Iowa for Eden's 2nd birthday, Ben had a melt down in the middle of the night that lasted over an hour, and then I was also up with William in the middle of the night. So in the morning, my mom was nice enough to take William while Ben and I slept in a little. But since we had the clothes and diapers in our room, they had to improvise. Below is Baby William wearing Eden's KU t-shirt, and a diaper that Jenny got during a baby shower. I think it is SO FUNNY that is says "Tickle Me" on the front of the diaper....
More pictures and stories to come!
