And he's out...again...

Another major life milestone has officially been accomplished by the babe of this family!  I don't know that I would say I am happy about this, but, it is not for the reasons most would think.

Not once, not twice, but as this blog is currently being written, we are on our fifth escape of the night. 

Yes, our little Ben Ben has learned to escape the crib.  While he is only a mere 23 pounds, this little love is one strong and determined little boy.  He has mastered the art of crib escapes and door opening.  

From downstairs, while sitting on the couch, we hear the distinct sound of the door knob bobbing up and down as our little love begins his next escape.  

And so one of us, who is so cozy and bundled up in our chairs and blankets, begins the trudge up the stairs.  While after five escapes and a little twinge of irritation at the situation (because all I want to do after my day of Valentine Fun as a third grade teacher is relax brain dead on the couch ) how in the world can you find this little boy anything but adorable? 

"Momma Rock Rock"  

AGHHHH  Melt my heart a thousand times over!  

At the current moment, it is 10 pm.  I have just put my little love down and have my fingers crossed.  Let's just say a small prayer we can get to bed before midnight around here! 

(Sidenote: Ben received this shirt for Valentine's for RahRah.  While he is NOT 2- he refuses to wear anything else to bed.  We might be wearing this every night until he actually is 2!) 

Nighty Night Little Love!  (I hope)
