So here is the deal-i-o. My little boy is growing up --- I know I've said that before but this time I have evidence.... it's on my arm in the form of a welt. Ben bit me. He really really bit me. Who knew you could bite someone with only one punny tooth in the middle of a massive wave of gums and slobber. So there you have it Ben is teething. It all started about two months ago, druel and sqwacks and then a month later--- May 2011 -- a little white tooth started to show it's head in his bottom gums.
Next Ben is starting to show signs of becoming a doctor. He analyzes his binki and then stows it away in the cutest places. Boxes, toys, below his chair, etc... how does this have anything to do with being a doctor you say...Well doctors analyze and stow binki's in their spare time, just like Ben. There you have it. Dr. Ben it is.
Well I have lots of things to do right now so I'll end by saying Will and I finally graduated into full fledged desparate parents. Two weeks ago Ben was sick, and I was sick. It had been a week of little sleep and no naps. And then at 11 pm he woke up again-- three hours later I was besides myself-- I woke Will up and we decided to drive Ben to sleep. Half asleep I am sure we were a danger on the road -- swerveing to and fro... But to sleep Ben went and after 30 minutes we returned home to our beds. Will was so tired he forgot to take out his contacts. But in the end our plan worked. Ben slept in his car seat til morning.

Ben looks so big in these pictures! I have seen his tooth and it is very sharp, so I'd better not stick my finger in his mouth! I hope your arm heals, Summer. Who knew that one tooth could do so much damage?!
Oh, poor Summer! Who knew moms took such a beating, I thought we just got hugs and kisses!
Ben is so big now, and where ever those pictures were taken sure looks fun!
