My baby boy is two months old today. His hair is really starting to grow and he coos and gives the sweetest smiles. He really enjoys the fact that Casey and I are constantly singing to him--something that one day he may think is embarrassing. Although it seems impossible, we love him more each day.

I can't get enough of him. I'm constantly overjoyed by his presence in my life.

Seven Weeks Old

Benton is seven weeks old today.  He has been smiling constantly and growing like crazy.  He has the cutest new layer of hair on his head that I can't stop rubbing.  My favorite things to do with him are taking baths and reading him stories.  I am treasuring every minute with him. Last week we went to visit Casey's parents and our best friends, Charlie, Tia, and their sweet baby girl Juniper came.  I had some stress about staying away from home for four nights but Benton did great.  We had a wonderful time relaxing at the river and spending quality time with some of our favorite people.  Here are some highlights:

Benton and his papa. 

 Being measured like the big kids; he'll appreciate it one day.


 First trip to Heston's distillery to try some good old West Virginia moonshine.  Ended up with wine margaritas, beer, and a  free meat, cheese, and fruit platter too.


 
Back to Heston's with Casey's parents.

Benton and Nana.
