Ben at 6 months!

WOW! Ben is now 6 months old... as of two days (March 5th) ago! Don't know how all that time went by so quickly! Here are a few pix I took of him that day in my makeshift/home photo studio.





During the last two pictures he was getting tired and fussy, as you can see. He is such a fun boy! He sits up unsupported pretty well for and when he does fall over, it's in slow-mo. He loves sweet potatoes and enjoys playing peek-a-boo. He seems frustrated at not being more mobile and does not enjoy sitting very long anywhere without something to do. He usually wakes up before Ella around 6:30am and looks around wondering where she is!

He still eats all the time (so it feels to mommy) so thankfully we are having luck with introducing solids. Mommy has been on a dairy-free diet for 3 weeks now (oh how I miss my cheddar cheese!) and the results are quite convincing. We haven't had him officially tested, but we agree that he is either lactose or casein intolerant. It's so wonderful to not have him spitting up and vomiting constantly!

We are so grateful that Manny boy is a part of our family! He is a great blessing in our home and we can't remember what life was like before he was here. We love you Ben!
