Hi! My name is Benny and I am twenty-one months old. This means that I am almost two. Please remain calm. Please keep your hands and feet inside the web site. Please buckle your lap belts. We will soon be reaching terminal tantrum velocity. By the way, this web site has been updated and we live in Virginia once again.

NEW! Back in Virginia! Here are pictures from September in our new house and pictures from October of me eating a cookie. And, as a special bonus, here is a page of pictures of me in my new fall outfit.
NEW! I went to Isle of Palms to play in the ocean and run on the sand! It was great fun but most of the pictures are from Ahno's camera which Mumsy hasn't processed yet. Here are a few she did take, and here are some from the rest of August. NEW! I just love playing. Here I am playing with my dear friends Cameron and Eden. And here I am playing all by myself. It's June, you know. And here I am playing with my dear friend Irene! This year for Easter, Dadsy and I colored some eggs. Then I went to spend a week at the beach with my Ahno and Grandma Jenkins. Mumsy took so many pictures you'll have to take them in two parts: A and B. Here are some things I do for fun. I go to Gymboree, I play "Bucket of Water," I go to the lake with my Mumsy and Dadsy! I also sit in my laundry basket and eat pickles. Hey, some days are better than others. Visits! This March I visited my friend Sam in Atlanta and was also visited by my Grandpa and Nana Vernier!
Hot off the camera: Visit me in my bathtimes! And see me being naughty in the cabinets! And follow me on a voyage to naptimes!
Mumsy has been bragging on my block building skills. Here is proof and here is more proof! Also, what happens when Mumsy goes to the bathroom and leaves me free to work my strange agendas, and what happens when Mumsy gets all enchanted by my appearance in a new outfit.
In January I have really stretched my limits, trying new foods, taking excursions out into the world on my own two feet, and all kinds of other delights.
Christmas time, the most wonderful time of the year. And, uh, Birthday time, the same exact time of the year as Christmas time. Who planned this?
Mumsy and I spent two weeks in Detroit. Here I am playing in the park near Grandma and Ahno's house, and here I am at Ahno's school getting an education.
For Halloween I went to Detroit to cheer up my Grandma. After first spending some time at home in Virginia preparing for the holiday with Dadsy, I went trick-or-treating up in the frozen North.
Having the chicken pox is no fun. Here I am drearily enduring this great hardship. My advice to you is that you never get it. And that you punch in the nose anyone who tells you it's better to get it when you're a baby. Trust me, it's never better to get it.
Nine months old -- exactly as old on this side of delivery as I was in the womb. What a landmark. Here I am playing at home and in the park.
The Atlantic ocean is very big and exciting. Here I am having a meaningful encounter with it. Summertime! -- This page is all about me. This page is all about me and other people. Mumsy has a strange way of dividing things up, but since she won't let me touch the keyboard, we'll have to suffer along. You can click here to see a storybook my Ahno made for me this summer, and here to see a page she made about me while I was in Pennsylvania. Bathtime! -- Here's a whole page of pictures of me in the tub. Mumsy found me so very charming that she couldn't limit herself to just one. Poor dear. She does go on.
June is Exciting! -- See pictures from my six month birthday party, which will be Mumsy's annual apology for giving birth to me so close to Christmas! Also, six-month activities and crawling.
Grandparents Tour -- I spent a week traveling around visiting my various grandparents and receiving many kisses on my little round head.
South Carolina -- I took a trip with Mumsy and Dadsy to South Carolina for two weeks and had a fabulous time.
Portraits -- This category includes my two month portraits and three month portraits.
Digital -- Obviously not enough space in this universe for all the digital pictures Mumsy and Dadsy have taken, but here are some of my favorites. Digital One. Digital Two.
Black and Whites -- Mumsy shot a roll of black and white pictures in February and here they are at last.
First Month -- Boy, were they ever camera happy! Here are hospital pictures, home from the hospital pictures, face pictures, pictures with relatives, action pictures, Christmas pictures, and bath pictures.
Pregnancy Pictures -- Here are pictures of Mumsy while she was pregnant, and some pictures of other stuff taken during the pregnancy, including our new house.
Ultrasound Pictures -- Pictures of me when I was just a little alien looking thing floating in a comfortable sea of amniotic juice. |
