Balm Family Part III: Just Hanging Out

Michael, Erika, and Ben at the Boardwalk.

This is where Mira first used her little finger to say "Look, Mommy & Daddy! Don't you see what I see?!" She pointed at the fountain over and over again.

Ben really liked the fountain, too!

Mira's new car seat came!! It was so much fun playing inside the great, big box! It was a cave, a garage, and who knows what else!

I don't think Ben wanted his picture taken. =)

Still playing with the box...in our pj's. (You can see her ultra-girly, big girl car seat in the background!)

Coming out of the secret cave...I mean, box.

Ben nabs Jeters beard. I don't think Jeter cared for this too much. Ben still has all of his fingers, so it couldn't have been that bad.

Shatzie wonders why there is a new pup in his bed.

Ben decides, "This pillow is awfully soft, maybe I'll just rest my head for a second..."

Mira is either trying to share the wiffle ball with Ben, or she is trying to smack Ben in the head with the wiffle ball. Let's think nice thoughts.

Both Mira and Ben are trying to free the dogs. Sorry, pups, you have wet paws and stink from being outside!

We had such a great time seeing our friends and can't wait until the next time we get to visit!! Ben and Mira will both be official toddlers by then, and it will be even more fun watching them play together!

Thanks for coming guys!!! We miss you already!
