Do you wear diapers? No, I poop in the Jungle.
It is really cool to be able to record these things. No one would believe us if we just told them he was reading the books and giving voices to the characters.

Ben in a Cat Carrier
Yes, This is a Cat Carrier. And Yes, That is our Benjamin in it. I guess if it is good enough for TK and Izzy, it is good enough for him (at least in his eyes). We got the carrier out of the closet while doing some cleaning this weekend. After coaxing Izzy and TK into the carrier on separate occasions, he decided to try it out himself. Funnier still, these two pictures were each taken on different occasions today. In the one where he is backing into the box, Izzy is actually in there with him. In the other one, he is indeed stuck and can't wiggle himself out without assistance. But we couldn't bring ourselves to help him out without capturing the scene to share with everyone. He actually got in there so far that we could have closed the gate and carried the carrier to another room if we wanted to.
Silly Ben.
A Toddler With a Gun?
We had a really good time at camp last weekend. Benjamin got to try a lot of new things and meet a lot of new people. One of the things we did not knowing how he would react was Riflery. We rode the "People Mover" (a.k.a. Trailer behind a Suburban) down the bumpy dirt road to the Riflery Range and he did great. We gave him a set of Headsets for ear protection and to keep him from being scared by the noise of the other kids shooting and he wore them like a big boy for about 5 minutes. After that, he took them off and gave them back. The noise was clearly not an issue for him. Shortly after that, he started asking for his target and informing everyone that it was almost his turn. Obviously, no one in their right mind is going to just hand a 2 year old a loaded gun, but we decided to give him the illusion of participating. He was a very big boy, sitting on Daddy's lap and helping shoot the target. All seven shots hit the target and he was pretty proud of that target as he ran it back over to Mommy on the bench. Clearly, we don't want to encourage guns and violence, but we felt that in this environment, with this supervision, it was as good a time as any to expose him to the existence of this sport.
Peek-a-Boo
While we were unpacking from our trip last weekend, Benjamin decided to play hide and seek in the suitcase.
