Shoes!

Mama, Daddy and I went to Yukon, OK to buy my first pair of walking shoes! On Thursday we wen to the park and all I wanted to do was walk on the sidewalks. So Mama thought it was time to buy a pair of shoes. In Yukon there was a kid's consignment sale. So this afternoon we all got in the car to drive to Yukon. There was a perfect pair of shoes there just for me! The best part is that they only cost $2.50 because it was 1/2 price day! Thank you Jesus!

Afterwards, Mama and Daddy and I stopped at McDonald's to rent a movie and pick up dinner. It is a special treat to eat out, we don't do it very often. Daddy ordered chicken nuggets and french fries, so Mama let me take a small taste! I loved gnawing on the fries and little pieces of nuggets!
Its movie night here, so I'd better go!

TGIF

Thank God I'm Forgiven!
Although I haven't yet chosen God as my savior, I am learning about him everyday. Mama and Daddy help me pray, read stories in the Bible and tell me that Jesus loves me!
My friend Ainsley came over for a playtime this morning. She took a nap for some of the time, but we did get to play.
I took a nap just after Ainsley left for two hours! Mama relaxed and did the laundry while I napped.
This afternoon I got to splash in the kitchen sink while Mama did the dishes. I had quite a bit of fun. Mama gave me a sponge that wasn't full of soap because I kept wanting to put hers in my mouth! Yuck!
I'm was very happy to see Daddy come in the door after work! He and I are playing games now that dinner is over! Its almost time for bath, stories and bed. I'll write more later!
All my love,
Benjamin

Busy, busy, busy

This morning has been crazy! Mama and I got the chance to take Daddy to work this morning. His friend Russ wasn't feeling good, so Daddy couldn't carpool.
After dropping Daddy off, Mama and I went to the Post Office, Dr. Rowe's office, Lake Hefner, and now we're back home again! Whew!
We had fun at Lake Hefer this morning. We met Miss Heather and my friend Ainsley as well as some other mommies and kiddos for a walk. After our walk we stayed and played at the Little Hands Park. They have a Jeep there that I got to drive! It was super fun!
This afternoon Mama and I are going to head over to Northchurch to help Miss Brandi put together the supplies for Northkids.
Its a busy day, but I'm having fun! I hope you're having fun doing whatever fills your day!
All my love,
Benjamin

Super Sunday

Today was a great day. Mama and I woke up to play games together, spend some time worshipping God at church, take a nap, go for a swim and snuggle for bed.
The thing that was a "first" today took place just before storytime tonight. Mama asked Daddy to go and get a pair of scissors and a bowl. Mama gave me my first haircut. (Its too bad our camera is no longer working---cause I look good!) :)

Tomorrow is Monday which means my friend Ainsley comes for a play time. Yippee!!!!
All my love,

11 months old!

Well, its official, I'm 11 months old. Can you believe it? Mama says she can't! Its been an eventful day so far.

Mama and I went to Lake Hefner and went for a walk with Miss Heather and Ainsley. Mama and Miss Heather are trying to walk 2 miles in 30 minutes. Today was the third day that we walked the 2 miles and we did it in 33 minutes! Are we good or what?

After our walk at the lake, Mama and I came home for a nap. After my nap, we went to the dr.'s office. We stayed for an hour because Mama was a new patient. The dr. adjusted Mama's shoulder and told her not to lift more than 10 pounds. She smiled at him with a silly smile because that didn't seem like a reality.

This afternoon we played all afternoon until it was time to go pick up Daddy from work.

Here are a couple of pictures that Mama took of me today.

Mama also took a video of me today. http://www.dropshots.com/pbandjcummings

On a side note: Our family camera gave up the ghost this afternoon after I took these photos and video. We're not sure when we'll get another one.....but keep checking for story updates!

Round and around and around I go

Just like a carousel! This afternoon, after my 1/2 hour nap, I had so much energy! I made laps around the dining room table! I walked and held on to the dining table furniture and made three laps around it all! Mama laughed with me as I told stories and took a walk!
Daddy and I read stories tonight before bedtime. We read Goodnight Maine, Sleepytime Farm and Fun Dog Sun Dog. Daddy and I stayed home tonight together while Mama went to church for a Fusion class. Daddy says I was a good kiddo!
Sorry there are no pictures of today's activities. I do turn 11 months old tomorrow so Mama will make sure to take lots of pictures :)
All my love,

My morning activity...

While Mama was getting ready this morning before my friend Ainsley came over to play, I was "caught" on camera reading to myself. It has become one of my favorite activities. My favorite books are: Touch and Feel Clothes, Good Night Maine, Sleepytime Farm and Love You Forever.

All my love,
