tight squeeze

I don't know why they didn't push the couch up against the wall (or why we didn't for that matter) but Bennett found he was the only one little enough to get back there. Graham thought it was hilarious that he got back there. Thankfully, it was not a tall couch, so I was able to lift him out.

But he got his ball, so he was super happy. And we never moved it back against the wall. 

not a fan

If you have a puzzle to work, Bennett is not one to ask for help with it. 

he kept standing on this one and taking off the pieces as I put them together. 

same thing with this one, standing on the puzzle is his favorite

And he usually takes a piece and runs away. It's double challenging!

total cuteness

this is how we potty train, the hat totally helps

and he wears it backwards so it looks like more when his dad wears hats

more fun together

the lovely couple with our apartment building behind us

at the 4th of July street fair near our apartment. it was classic

my sister has a great 4th of July party that we were able to attend (finally)

we didn't know it, but we are totally BOTH pregnant in this photo, she way more than me, but still, 2 ladies with babies!

checking our the local fire truck at the 4th of July fair

Bennett hanging out by the pool. he wanted in there so bad, but it was totally freezing in there.

 He did get his toes wet thought

of all the things to look at (firetrucks and fire dudes), graham loved the bell the best

bubbles

this apartment was super close to the monon trail, so we were able to take advantage of that, and there were several places to sit and watch the fountains and blow bubbles!

more from the first apartment

this was right before the NASCAR race...they had mini race cars at the grocery store, and our little racing fan could not get enough. Here, he got to touch the car...huge high lite for this kid. 

making faces with daddy

loving his high chair and french fries

this apartment had a nice long hallway that Bennett perfected his walking and running skills. 

I made the boys some bathroom wall art before I had to testify for work in Tennessee. This was also the trip we bought a pregnancy test at midnight to verify my lateness was due to a baby and not moving. I thought for sure it was due to moving and all the stress of getting 2 little boys back on a schedule. Nope....we made a baby!

The apartment had this great bar...which Graham ate every meal at. He loved ordering his food as well. 

wearing daddy's hat

Bennett loves finding any little spot to put things on,,,,as long as it was on his high chair. 

his favorite animal, the giraffe

Our first holiday was the 4th. this is the view of the parade which we could see out our window, no need to fight crowds or get a sunburn. We also could see the fireworks from out apartment. It was awesome. 

A new carseat box was a perfect place area for the brothers. And then we had to leave, it held all our stuff!

he looks like a red head here (he did all summer, it is back to blond now)

love this photo of Graham

cuteness all around
