HAPPY HALLOWEEN!! We had to dress Benjamin up. My mom found this outfit and couldn't resist. He only went to one house (a friend of my mom's). She wanted to show him off. 

Yesterday was a beautiful fall day here so Benjamin and I spent some time playing outside. He loves to squish the leaves in his hands. Sorry for the big shadow. 

Matt bought a 1991 Toyota SR5 extended cab that had been in an accident. He is very excited to put this one back on the road, I guess he's always wanted one of these trucks. We'll put up a picture when its done. 

Another view, looks pretty rough, but Matt can fix anything. 

Ben is starting to try the crawling thing, but has a long way to go. 

Thanks Titan:( Sorry this is crooked, I am not smart enough to rotate it. Anyway Titan and I were out for a walk last Sat and this is the result. He saw a squirrel and off he went dragging me with him. One broken wrist and some bruises. Matt is now the official dog walker.  

Auntie Shanna spent a day helping me out with Ben. Wow, he looks big even to me in this photo. 

Two tired boys. Ben is finally taking a bottle and formula, much to my excitement and freedom!!! It was the nipples Erin, thanks for the great advice. 

Sarah, Shanna and Jason at Ben's dedication brunch. 

Out with friends and family for brunch after Ben's dedication. 

Today we dedicated Ben to the Lord!!! It was so special to have our family and friends surround us as we commit to teaching Ben to love God. It was probably the easiest part of the process but we look forward to the responsibility, trusting God will be beside us as we do it. 

Now 4 months old, Ben loves his baths. 

Jenn came home for the weekend to go with me to Spruce Meadows to see the horse jumping. We got completely soaked and froze in the 5 degree weather. The wind was blowing so hard the rain was getting us even under the covered seating. What a memory!! 

Benjamin's new favourite toy. He is almost always smiling when in the exersaucer. 

TITAN!!! He is now 20 months old and 105 lbs.  

Matt and Ben on a hike in Kananaskis. He always sleeps in his snuggly. 

In memorium of my Grandfather there is a bench in his and my grandma's favourite walking place. It was very special to take Ben to that spot.

We had some fun one day in Kingston taking pictures of Ben in the provincial park, Thousand Islands.
