Just Ben

He's definitely a walker now!  Two days ago he started walking a lot more.  He got past that 5-10 step hang up he had and is trying to walk everywhere now.  When he falls or gets impatient he crawls, but usually tries to walk first.

Over the weekend my dad, Sam and Tucker taught Ben how to bark like a dog, "Woo woo woo woo" with the cutest puckered lips.  He now barks at Tucker almost every time he sees him and even pointed to a dog in a book and started barking the other day.  He also says "da...woo woo woo woo" when he sees Tucker.

Yesterday Ben's word "Uh" (for "uh oh") changed to "Uh ohhh"...cutest thing ever is the pause between the uh and oh...thinking so hard about how to get that out.

This morning he used a fork successfully for the first time.  Poked his pancake and got it to his mouth.  SO proud of himself!  Now, every time he puts a piece of food in his mouth he stops and smiles and expects everyone to clap for him

And he has three molars now!

Goodness!  This is such fun time with new things happening every day.
