Happy Birthday Month Ben...aka The boy who makes faces

Ben had a great birthday month. We actually had to cancel his official party because of some complications that arose, but he had a chance to celebrate many times. Here are a few pictures from the month of June. We went to the Atlanta Museum, the Oak Ridge Museum and several other fun places during the month. Ben never ceases to entertain us with his faces, sometimes sweet and sometimes nutty...like a granola bar.

Here he is really enjoying the play dough that we made. He tasted it several times and said it was delicious.

I found some Bob the Builder cupcakes at Ingles. Ben was delighted he insisted that I give him all of the cupcake decals for his "buttcake" and the birthday boy got his wish, a buttcake full of Bob the Builder things.






We went to the daylily festival with Granny. I love this picture of him holding her hand.

Sleepy Boy...he spent a lot of time like this in June.


He is an adventurer, and will try anything once, or twice.


He loves the splashpad. He asks to go there at least once a day.


He is wearing a shirt that Aunt Joyce gave us. It says MANIAC on the front. His face matches the shirt.




This is how he smiles for the camera.


Playing peek-a-boo


Snuggling with brother, they aren't this peaceful often


This is Ben AFTER he tried to swim in the water table at the Children's Museum


"Dribin' Tractor!"






Ben has a newfound love of rubber duckies


He also frequently throws his hands in the air and says, "Mama or Daddy...do this!"


Bob the Builder cake! Happy Second B-day Baby!

Riding a pony is hard work. He had to hang his tongue out to do it.



Peek A Boo!

This is the face he makes right before he comes at you like a spider monkey



Cheesy Grin


Ben loves playing in the rain


We call this face the cat's butt

He thinks it is funny to put whipped cream on his nose


Look at those dimples!

Two ice cream cones for the two year old...that about sums it up!
