Benson Birthday!

This is first thing in the morning.  Everyone wore their birthday shirts. Alden and Calvin were so excited for Benson's birthday!

In the morning we decided to go to baby story time. (We've been to toddler and preschool story time but never to the baby one.) Benson loved it! They do peekaboo, read a couple simple stories and sing songs with actions or activities to do with your baby. Then at the end they put out baby toys and let the babies play together. They also gave us a bag of things since it was our first time going.  In the bag was a little baby board book that Benson loves! It was definitely his favorite birthday present.  He can be in a full blown cry but if someone starts reading that book to him, life is great all over again.  It makes him smile every time I read it to him!!

Benson likes the library because of all of the activities to do that are at his level.

Once Daddy came home from work we opened presents and had cake and ice cream.  Benson ate the cake just about how he eats everything.  He puts it in his mouth and then spits out most of what went in. He ate some of the cake but we couldn't get him to even try the ice cream. I force fed him a little bit just so he would have tried it and to see if he would like it, he was not a fan. But he did seem to enjoy the cake.  It was a strawberry cake and he does seem to like strawberries.
