We had a wonderful weekend entertaining Benjamin's Aunt Jennifer. The weekend played out like an adventure challenge. First task - Feed Benjamin (Who's feeding who?): Let's check Aunt Jennifer's accuracy. Only 10% facial coverage - Not bad; we'll give her a 9 out of 10 possible points.
Aunt Jennifer showing Benjamin how the mandible works...
Dad gets lots of practice tying Benjamin's shoes. Benjamin laughs because he thinks it's funny when he moves his feet while Da-da concentrates on the bunny-ears.
Benjamin took Aunt Jennifer to dinner at the 'Red Parrot'.... Benjamin on his best behaviour, giving Aunt Jennifer the low-down on Newport Rhode Island.
Task # 2, run 5 kilometers. All parties completed Task # 2 successfully, but someone screamed very loudly for 4.9 kilometers. I won't mention who. Picture below depicts us during much happier times.

You can't go far on the island without being tracked down by 'The Twins' (Mimi and Aunt Alicia). A quick photo op at the finish line.

Look at MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!
Aunt Jennifer you're fun!

There seems to be a rumor going around that I cried during the run... well let me set the record straight, I was cheering my Ma-ma on....
Pre-run photo.... #2 in the middle is none other than Benjamin (aka fussy pants).
Two peas in a pod.
We had an incident earlier in the weekend. Benjamin likes to park his 'car' wherever he pleases. Now that the summer months are close, the Newport Meter-maids are out and about, and Benjamin's car is not free from the law:

  3. How come everyone looks so bundled up for the run? Don't you get all hot and sweaty whilst running?
