Ben Ben turns 3!

He's just a little excited about it being his special day. 

Blueberry muffins are a favorite for this birthday boy.

Silly thing.

Benjamin showing off his new knitted hat Mama made and his new hammock from the girls. They are the best gift givers to their little siblings. They know just what they like!

Benjamin's first picture. 

I showed Ben Ben his baby hospital picture and he decided he wanted to recreate it with his new hat. Oh my goodness this boy is hilarious. This was completely his idea. He wanted me to hold him the same way and everything. I think we got pretty close! lol

 

Kayaking

Scully is ready to test out her new life jacket.

Perry and the big girls headed out for hopefully a non-log jammed trip!

 

More mushroom hunting

An old conk on the bottom of a tree by the outfitter.

Oyster mushrooms.

Lion's mane.

We used the lion's mane as a noodle replace for spaghetti. It wasn't too bad. I don't think it was a favorite that we'll be using again soon though.

We have a ton of turkey tail around here! It's supposed to be ideal for a lot of different cancers including colon cancer.

 

Around the house in Nov

Eating snacks and playing in the field by the treehouse is how we like to spend our afternoons in the fall.

Best buds.

Matchy matchy. I'm trying to get away with it while I can. lol

Leaf fight!

These power wheels have been the best toys ever. 

He just wore himself out playing hard today.

Scully and Riley

This tire swing has been a huge hit over the last several weeks. I've got a couple of thrill seeking dare devils on my hands!

Movie night in Nay Nay's room.

When did he get so big? I can't believe he will be 4 in less than a month.
