Charlotte, Part 1

Last weekend we drove up to visit some of Mike's relatives who live outside of Charlotte, NC. It's been over a year since they had last seen Ben. What a difference a year makes! Mike's Aunt Sandy and Uncle Rick are friends with people who have toys and equipment for their grandchild, and they were kind enough to let us use them. Ben really liked the toolbench.

Hanging out at Rick and Sandy's.

Our water baby. He loved this float on the first day in the pool, but on the second day was kind of grumpy about it. Can't figure him out.

Wearing arm floaties for the first time.

He wasn't so sure about this position at first. Then he started doing it on his own. When we got home and tried to bathe him in the bathtub, he went into this position. Not the greatest for bathtime.

Smiling big for Aunt Sandy. His fascination with steps continues, this time with the ones in the pool.

Checking out Sophie, the dog who wears shades. This poor dog was scared to death of Ben for a long time. She is the sweetest dog ever, and Ben loved her (even if the feeling wasn't reciprocated).

Pool time with Heather.

These sunglasses are actually Jamie's, but Ben and Sophie kept stealing them. Of course, we couldn't get Ben to wear his own sunglasses. Or a hat.

Giggling while Jamie played a game with Ben's feet.
