Hansom Devil!

Ben is sporting a very hansom new hair cut. He was showing me his sleepy face while daddy ran into the store to get food for Monster.

A Little Fun With Photoshop

I thought I'd have a little fun with some PS actions during American Idol tonight...

Ice Cream, Please

We went for some ice cream after dinner tonight. Ben got vanilla with bananas! He sure did like it.

I L-O-V-E this picture!!

Backyard Photo Op

A little backyard photo op with Aunt Sarah today

A Little Water Fun in the Backyard

We had a little water fun in the backyard today. Aunt Sarah got Ben a beach ball sprinkler for his birthday and today was really the first warm day he could use it. He wasn't so fond of the sprinkler part - the water was a little cold. But later he liked playing with just the ball and in his duckie pool and with the hose. He eventually ended up all wet, one way or another.

Just Working on My Pitching Wedge

Ugh, gotta stretch out the gianomous belly. Gotta get loosened up...

Gotta line up the club here - it's kinda long and with my FAT belly, makes things a little difficult...I'll just follow daddy's lead on this one...

Gotta go find my ball, now...

Oh wait, there's this huge divot in the middle of the yard...

Well, maybe this big hole (from the falling of the big ash tree) is more fun...

I can always work more on my golf game tomorrow...

Nature's Neighborhood

Ben loves Nature's Neighborhood at the zoo. He gets all excited and starts running around like a crazy. He yells at the top of his lungs at the crazy loud birds (even yelling, he still isn't that loud compared to the birds). This time he was very intrigued by the leaf ants and the sandbox building area, including the bamboo poles. He also went in the stream again (and did not get too wet this time) but had to get out when he started throwing stones...

Baby Polar Bear!

Yesterday we went to the zoo with Auntie Dre and Uncle Kevin. And we got to see the new baby polar bear, Siku! Siku is about 4 months out and the darn cutest thing you ever did see! He was extremely playful and very photogenic. Because he just went on public display, we had to wait in line a few minutes and didn't get to spend too much time watching him. Ben LOVED him though! Andrea and Adam were holding him at first but then he wiggled down and bee-lined for the glass where he got all excited and pointing and talking very loudly. He was a little sad/mad when we had to leave Siku. But we'll probably go back soon and see him again.
