Bennett's 8th Birthday

Bennett turned eight on October 1st! We celebrated by taking a few of his buddies to Urban Air for a couple of hours and then coming home to enjoy ice cream sundaes. (The birthday boy requested that we only have ice cream, no cake. Easy for mama!) Bennett had a really fun day and declared that it was "the best birthday ever!'

Here are Bennett and his friends (and Allie and Asher) at Urban Air. From left to right, his buddies are James, Robee, Kash, and Hendrix. 

Bennett is pretty fearless and did everything at Urban Air multiple times. Here he is on the ropes course.

I love this photo of him blowing out his birthday candles!

Bennett grew and matured a lot in his eighth year of life! He has come out of his shell quite a bit, tried a lot of new things (even some new foods, yay!), gained confidence, and is just seeming like an older kid to me! He loves chicken nuggets, soccer, Dogman books, the YouTube channel "Unspeakable", roller blading, helping Dustin build things in the garage, running around causing a ruckus with his friends, and snuggling with his mama. He's pretty great, and I can't wait to see what year nine brings! Happy 8th birthday, Benito!
