So grateful!

Ben is such a happy baby! Steve and I have been so blessed with Benjamin. Everyone comments on how happy and calm he is. And since I have no idea really what other babies are like, I'll take their word for it! He continues to amaze me. It's strange, when I was reading (and still am) those baby books and seeing what the phases are, it's so amazing to me when he actually reaches that phase! I kinda go "Wow...picking up food!" or "Wow...he's crying a little more for mommy just like the book says he will at this age..imagine that!"

These photos of him are so important to me. I don't want to miss a moment of it!! Even moments like these...Taken on July 24, 2011
