doing stuff

we are remodeling again! sloooowly, but surely, the laundry room is getting done. not sure why a torch is involved with the project, but i don't ask questions.

benjamin, mid-jump.

he has finally discovered how to actually bounce in his "jonny-jump-up" (as my mom refers to it) rather than just hang there.

he is mesmerized by light sources. hee hee. oh you make me laugh, benjamin.

every morning benj takes his first nap during our walk around the neighborhood.

this is what he looks like all bundled up, when he opens his peep eyes as we roll into the driveway. since his first nap of the day is around 7:30 am, its a real early morning. he keeps me from being lazy, that's fo sho.

why is it that i don't really trust my child around his grandparents when it is those same people who raised me to adulthood and i survived just fine? my dad looooves to hand benjamin whatever food is sitting in front of him at the table. i guess i might be worried, but then i think: "who loves benjamin the most of all?" first, its his mom and dad and second? second is his tada martin. so i have to think he will not harm my son on purpose. oh, and he loved the popsicle, by the way.

isn't pinterest the best?! i am getting so many craft ideas. see here, some more cute onesies! benj is too big for them so quick have a baby and i will gift you one.

this elephant one is glittery and benj really wanted it but its a little girly.

okay people. have you heard about the brown dwarf star, elenin? well if you haven't then you probably don't know that it is going to align with the earth and the sun on september 27th and we are all doing to die! except not for me because after i freaked out and spent all night worrying, i went on a shopping spree-ah at macey's case lot sale. it feels so good to finally get this checked off my to-do list. i am probably going to be hiking to my parents house in the event of a natural disaster anyways, but just in case an earthquake creates a huge chasm between their house and mine, i will be prepared.
