Benjamin in his cute outfit from Aunt Robin! This blog "Through the eyes of a Child" is for my sweet Benjamin. Every night before he goes to bed, he gets his special time (Carter goes to bed 30 minutes earlier). Usually it is with Ryan because he is the bedtime king, and I am with them most days so I am resting/watching TV. On the special times that Ryan is busy, and I get to sit with him; I try and soak in so many moments that become great memories. We were watching baseball, the Rangers, and talking baseball. We would chatter at the opposing team when they were up to bat. We would encourage our pichter to throw strikes, etc. We created nicknames for the Rangers (of course different from their given nickname). We had so much fun that bedtime got pushed back a little. Well the other night, Ryan and I were home alone. My mother had both of the boys and Ryan and return from playing in a golf tourney. So on Saturday night at 10:00, we were finishing up watching the Texas Rangers. What!!!! I started laughing and told Ryan, "You know, 3 years ago we would never be watching a baseball game." Now, we love watching baseball, especially the Rangers. Benjamin's love for baseball has made us baseball fans too. It is amazing what kids will do to you. I think I even caught myself calling the players by Ben's nicknames!
Carter in a beanie. Carter is my love bug, drama boy, game seeker, and game player. He loves to be playing with you. He loves to be held and curl up in your arms. He will throw a fit that makes you think he hurt himself. I had a chance to spend some alone time with him on Sunday. He love being the center of attention. He loves sitting in my lap and playing with my hands. Carter loves to be held, Benjamin wouldn't last 19 seconds being held. We can already tell, he is going to be our daredevil. He likes to play tough, but he doesn't like big brother to mess with him if it wasn't his idea! But, most of all he is a big mama's boy! Got to love it and enjoy it now!

I love this blog! So sweet...it is amazing how much children change your life in good ways.
I can attest to Carter liking to engage in play. He has pinned Nicholas twice in the nursery.
