Survivor

Jaime came to stay with Benjamin and I Halloween weekend while Max was in Vegas for the TCU game...we had a great visit - hear are a few pics that Jaime took while she was here:

We now have ear infection #2 under our belts...I think this little boy can officially survive anything! Unfortunately, this time the fever set in on Thursday afternoon right before Max left for the deer lease (Yes, Max has been out of town the last two weekends in a row!). Luckily, the pediatrician was able to squeeze us in Friday morning so we were able to get meds a LOT faster than last time. However, the ear infection itself was the least of our worries...this time it came with an entire head cold which had poor little Benjamin's nose so stopped up that every time he would try to take a bottle he would get all choked up. Anyone that has ever seen this boy knows that he doesn't miss a meal, but don't worry now that he's breathing better he is definitely catching up on EVERY ounce of milk that he might have missed out on while he was sick!

This is one of Benjamin's funniest little quirks...he ALWAYS covers his face to sleep!

He has almost conquered sitting up on his own...

Oh, and did I mention that when we went to the Dr. on Friday he weighed 20lbs???
