Ricky's Meet & Greet

Yes, Ricky is Cedric's nickname. It's simple enough that Ben can pronounce it and say it regularly when talking to or about his brother so it's just kind of stuck. Anyway, this last weekend my mom and my lovely friend, Catherine, hosted a meet and greet for friends & family to come and celebrate Cedric's arrival (and for those who had not met him yet it was an opportunity for them to do so). It was very nice and we had a good turn out of people I had not seen in a while. Ben had a lot of fun playing with his Auntie and cousins (even though they were all girls) but thankfully there was one little boy that came who is the same age as Ben. Here are some photos from the weekend.

(can you tell that he loves the attention?!)

This one might need a little explaining! Ben loves to push just about anything around that he can find (little lawnmowers, boxes, Lester the Lion, cars, etc.), so he couldn't resist pushing this stroller around Grandma's house when he found it (even though it is pink). It's a good thing Papa wasn't around for this! ;)

Notice how comfortable Baby doll looks!
