It seems like all of the regular readers and commenters know Benjamin quite well, but he had never met most of you all until our recent Midwest vacation. Unfortunately, I didn't get pictures of everyone, but here's a quick trip through our Midwest vacation and the people in Benji's virtual neighborhood.
Benji has found a new friend in blog commenter Lisa, who had actually come out to visit Benji before he was born.
Kim and Lisa say goodbye after a quick get together, while Benjamin seems distracted by the scenery at Rainforest Cafe.
Uncle Dave and Benji learn about the physics of the "busy ball popper" toy.
Grandma and Grandpa take Benjamin on a tour of Mommy's hometown.
Gramma shows off the Ames municipal band to Benji and teaches him how to clap.
Aunt Beth practices her baby entertaining skills.
Benjamin shows Grampa how to use all the buttons on the computer keyboard.
Benji and Daddy relax on Olene's sofa while everyone else eats lunch after church.
i sincerely do not know what you are doing here. are you lost? were you
looking for your delicate calico cat, and did you follow her up two flights of stairs
to this room? she is not here. she was here, yes. we gave her a warm bowl of milk, we talked with her about campaign finance reform for a time, and then she bid us good day. i believe she was
going to the post office two blocks down, but i don't quite recall.
for surely you did
not find your way from prinsiana, the least traveled site on
the internet. if you did, though, perhaps you are looking for humor. perhaps you are looking for profundity. perhaps you are looking for answers.
i'm sorry, but you shall go naught-for-three.
