drool!

oh my word, Bentley just started drooling today! If she drools anything like her Uncle Josh did, I will have to invest in several more bibs. (Love you bro.)

Here is visual proof of Uncle Josh's drooling issues. Check out the discoloration on his shirt under his chin! So gross, but cute at the same time. (By the way, Josh and I loved playing in the drawers in our room. We actually played well together as kids, minus of course our kicking matches on the couch. :)

One Flew over the Webster's Nest - a post from Drew

Lindsay has become very skilled at changing Bentley's clothes. She just does it intuitively at this point. Unbutton, roll up, arms out, over the head and off it goes. Me on the other hand... not so skilled. I've got the unbutton part down quite well. Its the arms out part the I can't seem to get down. Fortunately Bentley is very patient with me as I drag her through this fiasco of changing. By the time I even remotely make progress on getting her arms out of that onesie, she may as well be in a straight jacket, and believe me her eyes say she knows it. She just looks at me like, "If I could talk I could guide you through this but I've got another year-year and a half before that technology is installed so you're going to have to figure it out on your own... but I know you can do it.". Seriously, all that in just one look. I think she knows by now that when daddy picks her up to go change her clothes it's off to the insane asylum.

Bentley sees Bentley

Bentley started noticing her own reflection this last weekend. Drew held her up to a mirror at his aunt and uncle's home and Bentley just stared! I had tried to show her her reflection before, but she just kept looking at me through the mirror - ha. I decided to capture her seeing herself on camera... enjoy!

Smiles

Bentley's new name is "Smiles-With-My-Whole-Face" :) It's funny though, I can only catch her when it is candid, when she gets a glimpse of the camera she freezes. Oh yeah, and notice her little curl on top of her forehead, I love it! Drew gives her faux-hawk hairdos all the time :)

Bentley vs. the Bug

In the last few days, Bentley just started to notice her own hands as well as objects around her. I decided to record her and her "bug". Notice the battle, and the exchange of words. I think the bug surrenders in the end while Bentley lets out a smile of victory.
