mother's day

To help mommy out I fed myself, got ready for the pool












helped daddy with dinner,

and went to sleep...for awhile.




Friday was the Mother's Day luncheon at Chautauqua. A deafening sea of preschoolers excitedly sharing pizza and "happy mommy cake" with those of us lucky enough to come. Benjamin was a hit, as he always is. Ella came over to announce to her mother is her strident little tones that "That's baby Benjamin!" Indeed it is, and he is fascinated by your curls Miss Ella. Fortunately Ella has decided this just means the baby likes her and doesn't scream too loudly when he starts to pull. While I enjoyed my mommy cake, Benjamin was thrilled to get Green Beans in the Library. Which meant the books were in danger of getting green beans as well since he is convinced he can feed himself now.
To that end, we have finally invested in a high chair. Benjamin seems to enjoy his new vantage point and his new ability to treat the tray as a plate. As I get this blog up and running, pics will follow.
