Hello everyone! We're having beautiful weather in DC, so that means we've had Benny out and about quite a bit. He loves going to the playground, anytime he can sit in the swing or crawl around in the dirt, he is a happy camper. It is truly amazing how dirty he can get in a very short period of time.
He is doing much better this week, getting over a cold and an ear infection. He has a follow-up visit to the doctor tomorrow, so hopefully we'll get the "all clear." Thanks for you thoughts and concerns. Benny says not to worry, he will be raring to go for his birthday party this weekend.
Speaking of raring to go, we think he might be pretty close to walking. We've caught him standing up on his own, not holding on to anything, several times over the past four days. I nearly gasp everytime, then he just sits down and smiles at us! It won't be long before we're posting pictures of him literally running away from the camera.
Enjoy the pictures! I did a 5K with a friend a few weeks ago and Benny came to cheer us on. If you look closely, you can see that the sweatshirt is a U of M one. Go Griz! Check back soon for pictures of Benny's first birthday!
