Benjamin is great..as usual :) He has been such a good boy this week. He seems to be starting to entertain himself a bit. He'll sit in the excersaucer and play with his toys..he's starting to grab for things, and of coarse everything goes into his mouth. We got the ok from the pediatrician to start solids. We start cereal..he's not to sure about it yet. I'm sure it will grow on him over time. I can't imagine him not liking food. In a couple weeks we can start veggies. Maybe this will ease the need to nurse constantly through the day...
Onto a more important thing right now...My niece Mekena was killed in a horrible accident this week. As a family we are completely devistated. I am so sad that our children have to experience such grief and loss...they were buddies. She was a beautiful, sweet, charming little girl and she will be missed greatly..We are taking comfort in knowing that she is with our Saviour in a place more wonderful then we can imagine..but so sad her little life ended so early. Please focus your prayers this week on her family...she left behind her mom, Karen, dad, Jeff, and two brothers, Ronin and Hayden. They need all the prayers of comfort they can get as they try to cope with such a tragedy.
