Baby's First Christmas

Bejamin and Benjimabear finally meet!


A brand new toy! Benjamin's excited.


We had a wonderful Christmas with Benjamin. We woke up and had presents and breakfast at our apartment. Then we drove over to Grandma and Grandpa Cannon's house to enjoy the rest of the day with them. We opened presents there with Grandma and Grandpa, Josh and his wife Anne, Katie, Claire, and their cousin Mickey (shown in this last picture).

Happy Half-Birthday to Ben!

Benjamin is SIX MONTHS OLD today...and finally tolerating tummy time! But only because he's learned to scoot about on the bed. He lifts his little bum high in the air, legs straightened and head buried in the covers. Then he straightens his body out and pushes his melon head forward. He's gotten a lot more dangerous to sit on any surface because he lunges forward, with full confidence that he can just crawl away. He's a fun, 20 pound bundle of joy!
