Our Little Santa Claus

Last night, we were driving in the car, when Ben pointed to some random building and said, "that's where I go to work on my pooter (computer)." I asked what he worked on there. He said, "I find girls and boys that are nice or naughty." I prodded him more about his job. He said, "I give stickers to the nice kids and I fro (throw) away the naughty ones." OK... Not sure where he's getting this from. Then we drove by another building (that we've driven past a hundred times) and he says, "That's another place I work." Anxious to hear what he does at this building, I asked what he did. To which he replied, "I park my car on the roof and jump down the 'chim-i-ney'." I said, "Oh, it kind of sounds a little like Santa Claus' job." Which he then informs me, "Mom, I met Santa once, and he was really nice - so I gave him a sticker." Apparently, our Benjamin is the big guy behind the scenes making sure Christmas is merry and bright!!

4th of July Parade

Ben, Lily & Elizabeth had a great time squirting water at the people in the parade!

Our Silly Little Boy

All of these pictures were taken by Elizabeth. She did pretty good! (Check out his new buzz cut - it was his Dad's idea).

Yes, we feed him.
