‘Did Baby Ben Secretly Go To Charm School?’

Writer's picture: DeDe WatkinsDeDe Watkins

Baby Ben, who’s 10 months old, is so adorable that I’ve been wondering if he secretly went to Charm School! It’s been my observation ever since I first met Joel, Baby Ben's charming and handsome Daddy, that Aussie men are charming!


Baby Ben’s older Brother Jack, who’s 4 1/2, is charming too!


Baby Ben loves hanging out with all of us. He's never whiny, he rarely cries, he enjoys sitting on someone’s lap or just being near us. A perfect example would be recently when Jack and Baby Ben were staying with us for the weekend. Sydney, who’s almost 9, came over to play with The Melrose Brothers.


Joe Bill, Syd and Jack were having a special Yoga lesson at our house with patient and talented Yogi Collette Hill. The Kids have enjoyed working with her in the past.


The funniest thing to me was the fact that Baby Ben loved sitting in a little stroller right in the middle of the action! He was happy as a clam!


Baby Ben likes it when Syd plays with him and his older Brother. I’ve included one of my favorite pictures of The Trio. Syd and Jack were concentrating on a game on JB’s iPad. You can see Baby Ben sitting behind them, just watching what they were doing!


Syd loves being with Jack and Baby Ben. The Boys feel the same way about her. The 3 of them are great playmates and clearly love each other.


Jack is an exceptional Big Brother just as Syd is an exceptional Big Sister. Jack hugs and kisses Baby Ben and is always very helpful when he’s asked to do something for his little Brother.


Gigi and Joel were in Mexico for the weekend celebrating Joel’s Birthday. Baby Ben lit up when JB showed him a Facebook picture of his parents. That was a really cute moment!


I’ve included some pictures of 7 year old James, who was the first person to swim in our pool this year. The little Polar Bear Cub swam much longer in the freezing water than we ever thought that he would.


By the way, I’ve posted some short iMovies that include music that I put together that show us having fun!


Also, I have a shot of Skyler, Jimmy and James as well as a picture of the Bentsen and Stewart Families taken in South Texas during Thanksgiving! I’ve included a photo of gorgeous Caroline Reasoner and me at her fun Debutante Ball!


Much Love, D2
