Ben videos

Ben had a poop the other day that was so foul that I needed something to remind me how adorable he is. So, here are a few videos that help do that.

This one is a bit old. It's from Christmas time, and he was just falling asleep after a long day of opening presents...


This one is recent and shows his clapping and waving skills...


This one shows how he scoots around and plays with his big red ball...


Oh, and that reminds me. At bath time, Ben has discovered (as all men do at some point), that he has a toy to play with no matter where he goes. He'll thank me someday that I don't have a video of that.

Ben's first trip to the track

We took Ben to Arlington Park on May 1 for opening day weekend and so daddy could watch the Kentucky Derby. They had a petting farm and ponies to ride, but we just stuck with the petting farm and watching the big horses.
Unfortunately, Ben got sick and we ended up watching the derby at home. But, he picked daddy and uncle Skindzier a winner before we left.
