Happy New Year!

Flat Stanley came for a visit this week.

Do you think I can play with the tree while Mom is distracted with the camera?
Ben's working hard on standing on his own. He's done a few seconds here and there this week. Watch out world, we know what will be coming next! He has also finally gotten the hang of "normal" crawling. Not that he does much of it, he still prefers to drag himself along on his tummy. And more than once he tried to get up on his hands and feet only to not be able to figure out what to do next. One time he tried to jump his feet in to his hands - it didn't end the way he thought it should!

We hope for a happy, healthy, peaceful, joyous, and love-filled New Year for all our family, friends, and readers!
