Better Together.

When I walk into Ben's room in the morning to pull him out of his crib, the first thing he asks for is Daddy.  The first few times it happened I called Tim and gushed about how sweet it was that Ben was missing him so much.  The following weekend, Tim went in to grab Ben out of bed and I was eavesdropping on the monitor (I just love listening to them talk to each other.)  Much to my surprise, the first thing Ben asked for was Mommy.

We've come to the realization that Ben really prefers us in our pairs.  If one of us is missing, he always asks about it.  When we walk into my parents' house and Gramma greets him, Ben immediately asks, "Grampa?  Grampa?  Grampa?" and holds his little hand out in question until Grampa appears, too.

So yes, he likes us together.  Giving him our un-divided attention.   What a stinker.
