Cousins Camp

Cousin's Camp all started 20 years ago and I'm ticked that I wasn't part of this family back then cause it seriously the funnest thing in the whole world.

Grandma Ferguson started it all, bless her for that!

This year's cousins camp had a Scottish theme and this day was all about Scottish games.

Dancin' around some sticks.

Huckin' Haggis a.k.a Foot Longs.


The hay toss.

The beam toss.

And.....Bump. I had a retarded sled and Chad's uncle, Blake thought it was funny to hassle me. And bump were the words I heard right before the crash.

Do you REMEMBER?

Chad's aunt, Nancy. Funny, funny Lady!

Twinnerds

Dad and Grandpa

Cute face Ben.

Crusty Eyes

This morning Chad and I were cuttin' a rug for Ben, to a little Bob Marley. He gave us this face.....I don't think he was quite prepared for the dancing skills we wooped out.

A Dream Come True

When I was prego I had some crazy dreams. One went something like this.... I had my baby like most of my prego dreams I was not part of the delivery. I went over to my moms house and I was like where is my baby? She said," he is in on the couch. I went to the couch and found Flip sitting on the couch in the cutest baby outfit I have ever seen. In my head he was Ben not Flip. So I thought my dream had come true when I saw Flip like this. Really he is just obsessed with the baby and his stuff.

Racquet Ball Ben

Pineapple

These young ruffians broke into my house and stole my pineapple.

Ben can talk

Happy Boy

Seriously, he is the best baby in the whole world. I don't know how I got so lucky.

The only tradition we have

This is what the tree was loaded with.

10 year old boy or newborn?

So me and Ben were sleepin' on the couch together and Chad locked himself out. So I got up and covered Ben with the blanket and left him there on th couch. 2 seconds later I found him looking like this! A grown up boy! The funniest part was when I took the picture of him I forgot to turn the flash off and he freaked like usual and pulled the blanket up over his head. It was so funny!

First Times

Ben's first bath.
He seriously loves the bath. Even washing his hair.

Ben's first concert, it was rockin'!

So this is how he experienced it, but still.

His first time wearing shoes.

And his first Kung Foo Panda fruit snack.Ha, ha we are so funny.

Mom Why?

I'm pretty sure this post will continue to just get bigger and bigger!
His face really seems like it is saying " mom why?"

Those Pants really are cute if they aren't jacked up to his face like a nerd.

Benny Boop Ba

Chillin' in a love sac.

Ben sometimes looks like Brad to me.

Ben's Room

Before
After

So my Husband and my in-laws are amazing! They did all the work on Ben's room and made it look so amazing! When I went into the hospital they were just getting started and when I got home they had it all done and it was one of the nicest suprises ever! Too bad Ben can't keep it clean.

Wayne or Crush?

There was a very heated debt going on as to what Ben's middle name would be. Chad really wanted it to be Benjamin Crush. But there were some faint of heart people that couldn't handle that. In the end when things really got serious, we decided on Wayne. I think the better man won out. I love Grandpa Hampton!

Benjamin Wayne Hampton

Born May 1, 2008 at 11:30pm. He was a BIG BOY!

Ah "the CONE!" I am so glad that thing went away.
