Yesterday was Benjamin's birthday. He is now 2 years old. This is a picture of him at 2 months. What a big difference between baby and toddler. He now will talk in sentences on occasion, and DEFINITELY has his own opinion about things. His favorite thing now is to go. It doesn't matter where, he just wants to go pick up Nadia from school, go out to the back yard, go to the car and run errands. He has to wear a jacket and his shoes at all times so he can be ready to go.
Since he is enamored with trains, (maybe because they are always going?) we had a train theme for him. He loved it. He kept saying, "Too too" (choo choo) which is his name for Tomas the Train or any train that he sees. When it was time to blow out the candles, he asked, "Is hot?" and then blew. The big birthday gift hit was the Thomas the Train laptop. It was great except he has to use the leg of an adult as his laptop table, so you can be stuck for 20 minutes while he points and clicks the little mouse.
He also got a firetruck baby transformer. It is really simple for him to change by himself, and now he can play with Brandon. Maybe. Aunt Marlene sent him a gift card, which will probably buy him some sandals and shorts so he can go this summer in style. Thank you all for presents and your love. We are so glad he is in our family and has the blessing of being surrounded by such incredible and wonderful people!
