Benjamin turned 2 on April 6. I still can't believe it, time went by so fast. He is the best little boy that I could have asked for. He is so sweet and smart. He has finally gotten the hang of sharing and loves to share his blankie with Samson. He can count up to 4 without any help and up to 10 with help from daddy and mommy. He also knows a bunch of letters in the alphabet. He says the funniest things all the time and I started to keep track of them in a notebook. The last two years have been the best! I love being the mom of this beautiful child and I sincerely look forward to the years to come. For Benjamin's birthday this year we celebrated a few weeks early at Grandma and Grandpa Taylor's house where Benjamin got some awesome t-shirts and a spiderman swimsuit. Benjamin is obsessed with spiderman and he also loves Cookie Monster and sharks (even though he is terrified of them). The people at this party were Grandpa and Grandma Taylor and Auntie Kathryn. In Utah, we celebrated his birthday the day after and we had the family and a few friends over for pasta, breadsticks, and cupcakes. Trev and I got Benjamin an Elmo potty! I also attempted to make a cute cake for the very first time. The guest list for the party included Grandma Kelly, Hayley, Remmi, Blue and Penny, Tristin and Patton, Grandma Mary and Grandpa Kendall, Josh (Trev's business partner) and his lovely wife Carissa.
