My babies are going up!

I can't believe that Benjamin is almost 4 months old already. Time sure flies by sooooo fast! Emmalee loves to hold him, and she got giggling today because "he is too wiggly".


He is losing all of his dark, thick hair--the cradle cap didn't help! You gotta love this face!

Emmalee is peeking from behind Ben--she loves holding him, but he is getting so big. He has a very healthy appetite and I can tell he is going through a growth spurt because he is nursing a lot again.
Benjamin is such a great baby--I needed a nice, mellow caboose! He is only fussy when he is messy or hungry. Sometimes he gets a little vocal if he wants to be held--or sat up. I think he just wants a different view. Today when I was stretching (after exercising--yay), I was laying on my back and thought--things sure look different from this angle! Sometimes you forget how big and different things are from that perspective!
He has already learned to poise for the camera--what a ham! But this last picture is my favorite--he smiled on his own. I was telling Emmalee to smile, and this is what I got:

A smile from Benjamin, but not from Emmalee. Alright, you two--slow down and don't grow up too fast!

What a Cutie!!! I love babies - how fun. He's got such long eyelashes! Cute smile! Emmalee is such a beautiful little girl. To look at her carring Benjamin is funny - he looks almost as big as she is.

The DO grow up too fast!! Enjoy the journey!
