#176 - Lots of Firsts

Benjamin's first night in the crib..... He did great!

This time, we have a video monitor, which is the coolest thing. It's saved us many trips across the house to check on him. It's quite addicting to watch him in the monitor - it's our Baby Benjamin TV!

Benjamin has also had his first bath at home. Look at how big this little guy is.

The first time in the bathtub he cried and cried, but now, he really enjoys it - he just lays back and relaxes in the warm water.

He's got a good case of baby acne, so we're trying to bathe him often.

Our first tomatoes and peppers in the garden are ready to be eaten.

Owen has picked the ripe ones and eaten them - the tomato and the banana pepper.

Benjamin's first friend. Owen can't get enough of his little brother. Unfortunately, he's not aware of his strength, and most of the time Benjamin ends up crying!

Benjamin's first Fourth of July. He didn't do too much to celebrate Independence Day, but Owen and Lou spent four hours up at the pool playing with all of Owen's friends. This led to Owen's first sunburn (minor). :)

Benjamin rocked the red, white and blue onesie for the occasion.

And, finally, a picture that shows how big he is getting. We won't get him weighed again for another month, but he's got to be over 9 pounds now. He can no longer wear the newborn clothes he has, and many of the 0-3 month onesies are too short on him. He definitely likes to eat!
Happy 4th of July to you!
