It's here, it finally happened, Benjamin is a ONE year old today!!! It's such a mix of emotions for me, excitment and sadness that my little baby is not a baby anymore.

So we are starting off his second year with 6 teeth. He puts those teeth to good use too, he is still an amazing eater. We are down to only 3 bottles a day which we have transitioned over to milk. Ok yes, I would not have done that a week early with Olivia but this boy he can handle it. He eats 3 meals a day and has snacks in between. Favorites still seem to be his puffs, yogurt, and anything that is on our plates.
Benjamin has been walking for awhile now and he is really getting the hang of it. 95% of the time he walks although there are times when he knows he can get there faster by crawling. He keeps right up with his sister, it's so cute to watch him follow her everywhere she goes.
He still is an explorer, we have to put everything in our mouth. That makes Mommy and Daddy's job super hard to make sure that Miss Olivia picks up anything that Brother here can't get his hands on. We have had numerous occasions where he has thrown up because he choose to eat a sticker. But Olivia is learning that if she wants to share her stickers that they have to go on his back.
Mr. Motor Mouth may talk just as much if not more then his sister does. He wakes up talking and goes to bed talking. I only wish I knew what he was saying. I have been assured that he has the vocabulary of a 15 month old. Here are the words that he can say so far: Mommy, Daddy, Hi, Bye Bye, Ba Ba, Duck, Papa, No No, and Ok.
