Growing and Going Too Fast

Benji is growing up waaay too fast.

At mealtimes he refuses to eat unless he has his own little bowl and fork just like everybody else.
He's into EVERYTHING and is constantly climbing on the table, couches, beds, bikes...whatever he can scale. Which could possible explain why he's still only 18lbs 12oz. And the constant scrapes and bruises on his knees. Must be all that running around. 
And heaven forbid someone goes outside and doesn't take Benji along. Tantrum city folks.
Tho no words yet he can sign 'more,' 'all done,' 'eat,' 'chicken' (basically bird), wave hello/goodbye, go get his shoes, give kisses, and shake his head no. I'm working on 'Momma' but that basically looks like 'eat' at this point.
 At his last cardiologist appointment they said his heart looks perfect and we can now go to yearly appointments. YEARLY. 
Even though we love our doctor, I really won't miss going to that office (an hour plus away) every two weeks thankyouverymuch. 
Our very own little superhero.

Myna said Benji's superhero get-up is silly. I said wait until you meet his parents :)
