Grandparent's Day

In honor of Grandparent's Day at school, Ben and his classmates performed this and another song today. This was Ben's favorite, so I thought I would share a little of it with you. Ben's Spanish is much better than mine, so you'll have to ask him to translate. Having your almost five year old constantly correct your pronunciation is good for the ego.

Ben did ask if he was going to be on the news today, as the last performance was covered by our local channel. Nothing like creating high expectations for all future events at school. Hopefully this will satisfy his need for fame.

... and he walks

Well, after much practice, Ry's decided to join Ben in the race around the house. He started walking tonight! We decided he was just waiting until he could do it perfectly. He even managed to kick the ball a bit (watching Ben play soccer has also paid off, apparently). Also, still working out the kinks with the whole upload thing. Enjoy!

Benisms

As I previously mentioned, I regret that I haven't recorded every one of Ben's funny comments. He comes up with some doozies! Here a few that I can recall from our recent conversations. First, when we have salad, he would like to have those crunchy things on top, you know, "frutons." Ben is also interested in construction vehicles. In our house, we have the "blueberry picker," the "digging hole truck," and the latest, the "dullbozer." Also, he requested that we rub his foot - the "wrist" part of his foot. Finally, every time we leave the house, we have to "hit the Jack road."

These are just the ones that I can remember recently. And, now I have posted, so no more nagging messages from Tiffy.

Finally Taking the Plunge

After getting a great deal of enjoyment from other's blogs, I've decided to document the lives of these beautiful, insightful, funny and sometimes challenging boys of ours. I regret the comments from Ben that I've failed to record and Ry's achievements that I've failed to document. Time to make amends. Better late than never, they say, right?

I don't promise to post regularly or consistently. I will try to include pics of our everchanging little men frequently, but badgering will not encourage me to do it more often. I will do my best!

Enjoy!
