Week in Review: New Shoes, Chocolate Milk, State Fair (including baby cows!!!!), etc.

Here are some pictures of what we've been up to the last couple of weeks.

Benjamin slips in his new kiddie pool, so we go him some new water shoes. (which he brings to me every 30 minutes some days!) I just love the expression he's making in this picture!


We went to Bob Evan's a couple days ago for breakfast and got Benjamin chocolate milk for the first time. Needless to say, he enjoyed it.........


"Aaahhhhh!" I taught him to do this after he has a drink of diet coke and he was doing it with the chocolate milk too!


We went to the Indiana State Fair in Indianapolis yesterday and had a whole lot of fun. It was pretty hot out. but thankfully there was a nice steady breeze. Benjamin was really good and really enjoyed all the food and seeing all the animals. Here he is on a huge chair. He was very excited to climb up into it, but it made his daddy super nervous!!!!

The best part of the fair was the cow nursery they had. All the cows were either pregnant or had just had babies (including two that had been born that day!) They were super cute and Benjamin really liked them a lot. He even said cow for the first time. He made us stay there for almost a half hour while he just sat there pointing and saying cow and baby over and over again! It was so cute!

Benjamin pointing to the mommy and baby cow!

He really loved sitting here on the ground with me and looking at the cows and saying baby over and over again! He is so sweet! We actually had to make him leave!

In case I don't post any more before Tuesday, I have my first doctor's appointment for the new baby that morning and my new doctor does an ultrasound at your first visit so hopefully, we'll be able to scan it in and post a picture of our new little one. We're really excited to see him/her and especially for Benjamin to see the baby. He already points to my belly and says baby and lifts my shirt and kisses his baby! At the fair they had a pro-life booth and we got to hold a model of our baby at this age. It was so neat to see how big the baby already is and that he/she already looks like a little baby! 10 weeks down......30 to go!!!! :)
