Nine Months

Ben got his 9-month photos taken today. These are the "reject pics." It's amazing he looks so happy in most of these photos because he was crabby at picture time! Our favorite photo is him with a big smile showing his two bottom teeth - but we're going to make you guys wait to see that one.

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving. We're going to celebrate with Bubba, Grampy, Aunt Holly, Uncle Chaz and cousins Charlie and A.J. It should be a nice day for Ben's first Thanksgiving. The following day we are baking the Willis-family-favorite Currant Cookies. It's that time of year and we're excited!!

Our Little Card

He had no idea what was going on, but I think Ben had a fun Halloween. He got to see his grandparents (and grand-godparents) and even had a visit from a friendly Bubba Pirate. We went to a party and saw more than 500 trick-or-treaters. Ben stayed up until 8:30 p.m. and was happy playing with Presley (farmer) and Grant (pirate). I think the big kids wore him out because he slept until 8:30 a.m. today!
