Pops!

Pops came to visit! Ben had so much fun playing with Pops this weekend and I loved having my Daddy here. It was a quiet, relaxing weekend. We managed a trip to the pumpkin patch, but otherwise just hung out and watched lots of sports. There was also a trip to Urgent Clinic for Mommy (kidney spasms are NOT fun). Pops hadn't seen Ben since he was 2 days old so they had lots of catching up to do. Ben's teething so we had some not so happy moments, but otherwise it was a great weekend (thank you Grandma Cathy and Grandpa Bill for the ticket). Less than 2 months and they'll be back for Christmas! Woohoo

Weekend pictures:

look, up in the tree, it's Pirate Ben (with super cool shoes from 'Aunt' Ashley and Mayson)
Found: The world's cutest monkey hiding in the Pumpkin Patch

An attempt at a family picture


Ben's head is pumpkin sized

Pops taught Ben the fine art of pen flicking (sigh...)


Pops and his mini-me

Pops explaining how much the Cubs stink to Ben. Poor kid will hear LOTS of this in his lifetime.
