ace of cakes

Brandon made my favorite cake for my birthday...Strawberry Cake with Cream-Cheese Frosting (I make the frosting). He bakes, frosts, and decorates it. Every year the decorating gets more creative, using whatever he can find in the cupboard. He made the 27 out of sprinkles! I only wish I could have enjoyed it more. (the puking hasn't stopped).

The day before my b-day I had an ultrasound. Thankfully there is only ONE sea monkey in there, and I heard it's heart beat. My official due date is December 23, 2008. But I will have a c-section at least one week before that. I had pictures from my ultrasound, but they weren't good at all, so I didn't bother scanning them.

King of the Ottoman Empire

Benson has learned how to climb up everything, ottomans, chairs, couches. The only trouble is getting down. Usually it involves crying (either he falls off, or I remove him, which makes him mad). Nope, still not walking.

a serious case of comb-overs

Benson got his first haircut yesterday. His hair only grows down the middle of his head, which for a while made for a really cool mohawk. The mohawk stood about 4 inches tall at it's prime. But for the last few months, the mohawk has gotten too tall and falls over, resulting in some serious comb overs.

little people love little people

Bailey and Benson have been so good to play together this week while I've been out on the couch. They played Little People together for about an hour yesterday. Benson likes to see what he can put through the windows and doors, like his feet, hands, and binkis.
