Benji and his friend Jack

Our neighbors Andrea and Patrick have a little boy, Jack, who is one day older than Benji. Andrea and Aaron have just started doing regular babysitting swaps several times a week, so the boys have been able to play together a lot. This is good for both of them, because they're learning from each other -- only good things so far. . . --Victoria

Favorite Book -- Moo, Baa, La La La

One of Benji's current favorite books is called "Moo, Baa, La La La." He likes to say "moo" and "baa" and will often say "lalala." There's a page in the book that starts with "no, no" and he always says "no no" when we get to that page. He also likes to say "KACK" when we get to the page where the duck says "Quack." I love it that he loves books and reading already. --Victoria

The Many Faces of Benji

Benji Loves Books

Like his parents, Benji loves books. He has started to bring them over to us and hand them to us, saying "da!" -- which means "read that."

Rainy Day Benji

Sometimes, he's in a rainy mood too.

Playing with an ice cube

Benji love ice cubes -- always supervised, of course!

His Own Chair

He got this chair for his birthday, and he loves having his own little place to sit.
