Before I begin with this post and the many, many pictures I must say...it snowed here today!! Nothing stuck, but lots and lots of flurries. That probably means lots of ice tomorrow. On to the post...
Grandpa and Nana (Ryan's dad and stepmom) came to visit us this past week. They treated us like royalty, doting over our adorable son, treating us to wonderful dinners and giving early Christmas presents. Ben is so much more active and responsive since their last visit, so they had a fantastic time getting to know him all over again. It was a wonderful time.
When they were here we had beautiful weather. We took a trip to Botanica and sadly, there weren't really any plants to see, but it was a gorgeous day to be outdoors.
Ben found a small stick and carried it around like a toy. He is showing it off to Nana.

He is pulling up and beginning to prefer the standing position to sitting.

Cute baby found on lonely path

Isn't he so handsome?

He goes anywhere now. I love the shadow.

Ben went swinging with Daddy, Grandpa and Nana while I was at bible study.

He even took a couple of steps.

Love! this picture

Reading time with Daddy
Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What do you see?

Nana made this sweet sweater for Ben. It was way too warm for him to wear while they were here, but Sunday morning was very chilly so Ben wore it to church with the hat that another person made for him.

More standing. He is finding more in his kitchen cabinet now that he climbs in.

Ben's new ride. He got a big boy car seat. It must be comfy because he fell fast asleep last week after running errands with us.
