Ben is a bicycling maniac.
Is UBER competitive- and is usually very confident he's the fastest. Unfortunately, he gets reminded that he's not the fastest almost anytime he races another kid. *sigh* Depending on his mood he'll either laugh it off or be in tears. You never know which one you're going to get.
Is pretty determined to get what he wants whether through persuasion or sheer grit. When neither of those work it's not pretty.
Thinks he's in charge and gets a little too big for his britches sometimes.
Is usually pretty sensitive and shows a lot of emotion. Usually sad when someone is sad/hurt, or feels bad when he does something wrong, but occasionally will just laugh and joke it off- drives me a little insane when he does that.
Has finally moved beyond pull-ups at night. We have the periodic accident, but overall he does well. So nice to only have one in diapers for a little while, at least.
Loves to be a helper- especially with Dad. He wants to be an "instruction worker" and drive an excavator. So cute to watch him copy dad's poses and mannerisms.
Sure do love our Ben!
