Blanket, Food, Turning and Toes

August has been a fun month watching Benjamin do adorable things. I have to keep a constant watch during nap time.

He loves falling asleep with his soft blanket and during his nap he will grab onto it and rub it against his cheek. However, he covers his entire face sometimes.

 We have noticed Benjamin constantly stare at us when we eat. So, I've had him practice sitting up in preparation for solids. Then we had his 4 month check-up, and our doctor gave us instructions for when we were ready to start feeding him solids. Sadly, he also got shots that day and ended up with a high temperature the next day. So, when he was feeling better we decided to give him the solid food. We gave him some rice cereal, which I don't think he cares for, but he loves the spoon. However, he loves the squash we gave him. I had to strap him down so he wouldn't jump out of his seat 'cause I couldn't get the food to him fast enough. He's a clever little fellow.

During one of Benjamin's morning naps, I found he had rolled on to his side. It made me laugh!

 This is a first, playing with his toes. I almost thought he couldn't get any cuter until...

 I caught him with his toes in his mouth! Precious!

Playing Cards

It's been a while since we played Skip-Bo, so we decided to play cards as a family. Benjamin liked looking at the cards and was very excited to be involved in the game. However, I think I'll have to teach him a few tricks since I ended up winning this game. Heehee!
