So my darling son Benjamin is on a roll with his cruddy sleep habits. He was up again every 2 hours last night, slept 30 minutes this morning and just over an hour this afternoon. I'm not quite sure what his deal is but as much as I love seeing his adorable face I would prefer to not see it every two hours throughout the night!!
Anyway.......
So part of the reason he's not sleeping is because he's a crazy man in the crib and has learned how to pull himself up! See the photo evidence of my little booger who is quite proud of his achievements.
He's usually making maniacal sounds at this point!
the view from this crib is awesome
Good morning Mama!!!
he is sooo proud of himself
who has time to sleep when there's things to climb?
One would think that after being up most of the night that he would at least certainly nap well right? HA!
5 minutes after being put down for his nap this is what I see on the monitor...
He is far too busy exploring every corner of his crib to even think of sleeping.
I just keep telling myself it's a phase. At least I think. Oh boy.
This morning while he was playing he kept scratching the carpet in one spot and I couldn't figure out why until I realized he was playing with the "sun spot" coming in from the window, too cute!
This boy sure LOOOOOOVVVEEESSSS his Daddy. He just lights up when he sees him and it's pretty stinkin' adorable. They have so much fun playing together.
tickle time is hilarious!
oh Dada, I love you so much
Benjamin hates things on his head....unless Daddy laughs at him then he thinks he's hilarious and will wear it!
hey Mom, I've got a camera bag on my head...take a picture.
they'd just finished listening to the Davy Crockett theme song on youtube, too cute.
You look a little tired Benjamin, nap much today???
Despite his lack of sleeping and extra crankiness/neediness as a result I somehow managed to be a bit crafty today. We're having a Harvest Party at church with a dessert auction so I decided to make some Cake Ball Pops. Since it's fall I used Pumpkin Spice cake with cream cheese icing and orange colored vanilla candy melts to coat them in. A pretzel stick and leaf sprinkles completed the pumpkin effect. I wrapped them up, tied some ribbon and put them in a fall container with candy corn. All in all, I'm happy with them. I'm not very crafty on my own so I had to steal the idea but they're tasty and surprisingly addicting :-)

The finished product....I made 2 of these.
Hooray for the start of the weekend :-)
