Ben's Birthday, Take One

I'll post more pictures later, but here are a few from Ben's birthday celebration on Saturday. I thought I'd timed everything perfectly; Ben would have a nice morning nap, eat a little lunch, then around 1:00 we would eat cake and open presents. Easy and laid back, right? Wrong. Ben took a VERY short morning nap, woke up cranky, stayed cranky, didn't like his birthday hat, was mad about not being able to rip off his bib and throw it on the floor, and ate about 2 bites of his birthday cake (with absolutely no expression whatsoever) before deciding he was done with birthdays. Oh well. 

A small moment of happiness before the extreme crankiness
Not so sure about this
Doesn't want to be here
Still wants to be taking a nap, but at least cousin Logan is happy!

These are so funny! I couldn't decide which picture to set as my computer background, but I decided to go with the just slightly annoyed one (not the completely annoyed one). He looks so much like somebody in the picture, but I can't figure out who it is--probably you. It's pictures like these that make me think that when Ben starts talking, he'll have the voice and vocabulary of a 30 year-old!

He is too much. I've never met him, but I love Ben!
You look great to Mom!
