Birthday present

Big bike!

Ben is 2 today and loving his new bike!

Winter hat

Horse riding

We spent Halloween itself at a friend from playgroup's - here is Ben getting on Lauren's "horse-on-springs" behind her, it was quite cute and he had to really hang on as he was basically perched on the tail, but we never managed a picture of them actually riding together!

I looked at camera's today but still nothing purchased so its going to be another week at least of not much done on this blog.

Halloween II

Picture's from Tuesday Playgroup's Halloween. Ben was told that if he wore the (hated) costume for pictures he would get treats, can you tell? One clever mum did manage to get a smile though

Dentist

Ben had his first dentist appt on Wed morning. The dentist was really good with him and I was surprised at how much they did - he looked at all the teeth, put a mirror in there and then finished by poking them all with a sharp poker thing. By that point Ben was squirming at bit (they also made him lie on his back across my legs which he hates!) but he did fine. They say at his next appt (in 6 months) they'll do a teeth cleaning (hygenist thing..) ... I dont think so!
Oh and the dentist said that holding them down kicking and screaming to brush their teeth at this point is normal!
