Go Sox!

THis post goes out to all those Chicagoland fans.

More pictures from Ellery and Company's visit

Ben Wade & Ellery Grace

Here are some photos of us on Dane's birthday. Wade (Dane's brother) and Jenn (Wade's wife) are here from Chicago with their daughter Ellery. Ben and Ellery were originally due on the same day. Despite Ben's very early arrival they seem to be in similar developmental phases.

To talk or not to talk

Here are two videos of Ben while he is "talking away." You'll notice however that he is only making noise in one video. Once he discovers the camera he is silent. It is pretty classic. He could even tell I was disguising the camera as kleenex. I know, that is ridiculous. The last video is of Dan Ray and Dane showing their "blading" moves. Sorry it is on its side. Apparently I didn't buy the good software when I bought this computer 5 years ago and I can't rotate videos now.

Camp (sometimes) Good Times

Ben hasn't really wanted his picture taken lately. I think he is still sick...so I thought I would post a few older pics and some other things we are up to here at Camp Good Times. We are playing a lot of scrabble and playing with Ben's favorite toy: "Chester."

Dress Up

Here are a few photos from our new (?) favorite game: dress up. Coming soon: photos from our visit with Aunt Laura from Chicago.

Chubs

Ben weighed in at 11 lbs 14 ounces this morning. He is so close to making onto this chart for his REAL age (almost 5 months) but he is definitely on it for his "corrected" age (i.e. his age from his due date).

Name that caption

I'm not sure we can ever top the beat box video...so here is a photo of Ben that, well, is a different side of him.
