Carnage and Canines

Posted on

Somewhat unrelated, but…

flower carnage

One of Ben`s favorite activities is picking ALL the flowers off out our plants. Sometimes he throws them into the woods, sometimes he just leaves them scattered about…

Here Ben is trying to take in the world from the dog`s point of view, I guess…?

waterslide

Ben is such a lucky boy! Josh set him up his very own waterslide with sprinkler action (kind of hard to see in this pic) and splash pool at the bottom!!

Popsicles!

We tried our first popsicles! It went over ok…

He would take a few licks if prompted..

pop 2

But would only hold it by the popsicle, not the stick…

He was entertained for a little while!

You can be a quarterback while throwing a basketball, right?

running

Instead of walking around our subdivision loop at night, we have taken to walking to the neighboring cul-de-sac which is just a bunch of empty commercial lots so that both the boy and the dog can RUN!

Bubbles, bubbles, bubbles

Recently we got Ben a little picnic table that opens up into a sand or water table. We thought he would like to splash around, sail his little boats, etc.  We did not realize the real fun would be blowing bubbles!!

An apple a day

Ben loves to eat everything like a `big boy` does now, and apples are no exception! He does not actually eat them so much as suck out the juice…but that is ok.

And a rare Ben-Mom picture. Too bad we were not both looking  at the camera!
