We made a short trip home to visit family. Here is a few shots. One is of Ben with his Uncle Thomas and Aunt Niki. One is when he fell asleep in his Gran's arms.
Ben's first time in the pool was great! He is 8 months old now and loves the water! We signed him up for parent and tot swim classes at the YMCA. He loves them! He loves to splash around and kick his legs. Here are a few pictures from is first time getting in the pool.
Ben is christened today at our church, Dunwoody United Methodist Church. I was nervous about him crying or being too loud, but he was a perfect ANGEL!! He stayed awake, was wide-eyed when the preacher christened him and then promptly fell asleep in my arms for the rest of the service. Ingrid and my parents were there to share in this joyous event.
Our next door neighbor's little girl, Delaney, turned one. Ben got invited to her birthday party at Gymboree. It was lots of fun. Ben had a great time at his first birthday party. He got to go down slides, ride a rocking horse, bounce and have a great time.
What does every baby need? of coarse a leather jacket! ha ha.... seriously, his great Aunt Helen bought this cute jacket for Ben for Christmas. Thought these turned out pretty cute.
Ben loves to suck his toes these days. I keep him in footed sleepers most of the time since it's been so cold. But, when I take his feet out, he is very fascinated by his feet.
What is the Vollmer Family doing EVERY night at 7:30 P.M? Give Ben his bath!!!! He loves the water. He loves to splash around. It also really calms him down and he is ready for his bottle and bedtime right afterward.
Wow, December bought many Changes to our little boy's life. He turned 6 months old. He got his first tooth, had his first Christmas, started sleeping through the night..... Horray!!!
So I'm finally updating this blog again.... It's now February and I have 3 months to catch up on. Yes, Alabama was beaten by Florida. Sad. Sad Sad. Now.... on to Christmas
