Bugs!

It was fairly nice weather today so we took Ben outside to play, mainly to try to desensitize him after his fear of grass developed last weekend at the Easter egg hunt. After a few minutes of what you would think was major torture due to the extent of his screaming, he warmed up to the grass and started to explore it. Silly guy!

Not too long after he got over his fear did he discover....a worm! This is the first bug Ben has come into contact with and my first taste of being a "boy mom" since he thought he'd "show" both me and Andrew his wiggly friend (before he broke him into two pieces!!).

Exploring...
Playing in the grass, completely over his fear. Phew, now we can have a normal summer playing outside!
