Old Habits Die Hard

All the new toys that Ben got for Christmas, and what does he play with?  His beloved football guys.  He must have really been paying attention the other day when they were watching the bowl game in Hawaii with everyone wearing leis, because he started putting my bracelets around the football guys heads.  

He played for a couple hours the other night taking my bracelets on and off himself, putting them around his football players necks then having them tackle so the bracelets would fly off.  Luckily most of the bracelets are stone so they can't get hurt.  It was too, cute but it is hard to see him ignore all those new toys.  At least he is getting a little fine motor out of the putting on and taking off of the bracelets. 

Bath Time Fun!

The other day I heard Ben in the bathroom, so I asked John to check on him. You may remember a previous bathroom incident we had with toilet paper, if not check here. John came out and said, "I think he wants to take a bath". When I asked why he replied, "because he is already in the tub playing with his toys. I ran in to find Ben having the best time playing in the tub. I grabbed the camera, and snapped a couple of shots, and said "Ben how in the world did you get in there"? So he climbed out to show me, then climbed right back in. However, his climbing in is more like falling in. When I told him to be careful, or he would bonk his head, he proceeded to purposely bonk his head and then giggle. It was hilarious. Thanks for keeping us laughing Ben!
