Ben is 11 weeks old now! He was a little bit out of sorts today, but was happy to watch big sister playing outside this morning. He smiles and laughs so easily these days. He is soooo ticklish! Just taking his shirt off makes him giggle! Isn’t he a cutie?
We are more than ready for Benjamin’s arrival. The freezer is stocked with meals, the closet is organized, the cloth diapers are washed, and there’s an abundance of cute outfits ready for him to wear! We are just days away from his due date (April 1), so it can’t be too much longer, right?
I have been keeping busy playing with Natalie (she’s so fun!), going on outings, doing projects around the house, and taking pictures. I made this collage of pictures of Ben’s stuff, can you tell I’m starting to get bored?
Natalie is also good and ready, she is practicing to be a big sister. This morning she told Andy, “Baby Ben is coming!” (we’re still not sure she really understands what that means though). Here she is proudly carrying her doll around in a sling.
Hopefully we will be posting about Ben’s arrival soon!
I didn’t make any New Year’s Resolutions this year, but if I had, “Blog more” certainly would have been one of them! Hillary blogged today that I inspired her to keep her house tidier, and she has inspired me to make my blog more fun and interesting! Hopefully I can start posting more frequently and give you a better idea of daily life around here. It’s nothing unusual, but we love it, and thank those of you who take an interest in it. 🙂
Just to get you up to speed…
1. Natalie is just one month away from turning 2 years old! She’s a curious girl and becoming SUCH a talker. It’s fun to hear what she’s been thinking all this time, now that she can verbalize it. Here she is watching the rain pour down today. After playing outside in the rain, she asked to come inside and put her jammies on. This girl is not afraid to get wet, but she does NOT like to be cold!

2. We are less than 2 months away from becoming a family of 4. Baby Benjamin (Andy says you can call him Ben but NOT Benny) will be making his debut pretty soon! We are guessing between 8 and 9 pounds and a head full of dark hair… what do you think?
3. Andy is getting quite elderly, he turns 26 this month!
4. We’re still living on Camarillo Drive here in Camarillo. We’ve been here since June and we love it!
