TWO!!


bentley turned two today. he can say 'two' and put up two, twisted, little fingers. he and i made birthday cupcakes...he just couldn't wait and had to sample his. he opened presents from ben and i including a jdeere dump truck and shovel and rake for his sandbox. on the way to givens hot springs tonite he had to take the truck with him and hold it in his chair. we had fun swimming and playing with the balls. pop, natalie, and emily met us there. bentley jumped off the side like a big boy into daddy's arms. he loves the water!

i can't believe two years have passed by so quickly. however, it doesn't seem like time ever existed without the little guy...he is so special to us! some funny quirks right now are bathing with swim trunks on so he doesn't accidentally 'poop/toot', still using the binki to go nite nite, cooking everything from puzzles to cars in mom's rice cooker and pots, uprooting all the dirt in the flower boxes, talking on the phone, running on the treadmill with the help of daddy, and singing 'popcorn' and the 'bus' song...or listening to them and others over and over and over...we love you! happy birthday mr. two!

Wait until he decides to cook a hot wheel in your oven! Mine have done that twice! Thankfully the palstic popped off pretty easy when it cooled off.

Ben mentioned to Marcus you have a blog and I forced him to give us the address and invite! I love blogs (I don't know why I haven't started one yet!). Anyhow, Bentley is adorable and I can't believe he is two. Congrats on #2 we just found out you were expecting a couple weeks ago!!! Miss you guys. Love--Lynsey and Marcus
