Ben's Big Day

Today is Ben's birthday. I love that little monster so much. He still doesn't speak at all, well he will say Hi, Wow, and Yeah, but mostly he just makes noise and points a lot. He is so particular about what he wants though, and he still communicates really well with his grunting and pointing. He is so funny to watch, and he makes Scott and I laugh a lot. Ben wants to be big just like his brother and sister, and chases them around all the time. He has this Pluto dog that he carries around and likes to pretend it is licking people. He makes a noise for it and everything. He just has such a funny personality, and he can be full of it.

Here are some recent pictures of him, and you can see why he makes us laugh so much.

Its funny how fast time goes by. I can't believe how old my kids are getting (not me, my kids), and I sometimes wonder and worry about how this will change our family. I am excited for my kids to learn new things and have new experiences, but on the other hand, I dread them getting older. I guess that is what it means to be a parent, but I just don't know how to feel about it.
