Eating Bananas in the Window at 5 AM and other random Benjamin Moments

9.22.2008

Life with our almost 2 year old and only boy is never boring and is speeding by way too quickly. Here is the latest photo updates on Benjamin.

Benjamin in Prayer. Quite pleased last week when Benjamin woke from his nap and began to eat lunch that HE reminded ME to pray before he ate!

The infamous "Eating Bananas in the Window at 5 AM" photo. This happens on a regular basis. If it weren't so cute it would make his sleep deprived parents weep. At least he sleeps through the night, right?

Getting no-nos and Getting the arm caught, literally, in the cookie jar! (All the more irrate because mom is taking a picture instead of helping him get his arm out.)

Benjamin with buddy Elijah. We've waited for a year and a half for these two to become buddies and now that they are really clicking, Elijah is moving away! The life of a third-culture kid.

A familiar face. For those of you who've followed our time here, you may remember seeing a picture or two of this young lady. She is Gunay, our kids surrogate single aunt (for those of you who have ever been "the single aunt" or had your kids spoiled by an unmarried aunt, you know what this means) and the kids adore her. She came in the door not long ago and Benjamin ran to the bathroom and got the plastic stool almost as tall as himself and carried it in front of her. He then proceded to climb the stool so he could give her a hug and a kiss. A little Romeo already.

He does a great job of looking sweet and innocent all the while plotting his next move. We love him!
