Benjamin had an exciting 3rd birthday to say the least! Aunt Tami flew down from NY for his birthday party, and let him pick out his 1st pet- something neither he or his Dad will have an allergic reaction to....2 pet frogs whose names seem to change daily! Tyler has been continuing to smile away and adores his Big Brother as much as Benjamin adores him.......Benjamin had a blast at his Backyard Birthday Bash on the 4th that many family and friends turned out for, including Memere and Charlie who flew down from the Cape and Uncle Pete/Cousin Kevin who drove up from Myrtle Beach. Benjamin was thrilled with the planned surprise visit from Brrrgin's IceCream Truck- this year's obsession! Last year it was buses, this year it is popscicles and the icecream truck!Upon coming home from our whirlwind visit in NY, we have been working dilligently in the potty training dept. in preparation of Benjamin beginning preschool in his 3year-old class where the children are required to be potty trained.....Benjamin has been a trooper and with the help of Aunt Tami and Memere while they were in town, has pretty much mastered going on the potty- number 1 that is, so there has been lots to celebrate at our house this past week! As you can see, Tyler even donned his "party" hat for Benjamin's birthday festivities!
Since Memere was in town and available to help out with Tyler, Benjamin had the sty that he has had on his eye since Tyler was born surgically drained on his actual birthday- Again- Benjamin was a trooper and being 3 seems to agree with him!
