BEN

This is why my boys want more babies. Jacob has decided that it is his job to make babies laugh - they especially love Ben. This video was taken towards the end of their "make Ben laugh" plan. He was seriously cracking up in the beginning - you can't really tell that here. Jacob still asks when we will be having a baby. Spencer the other day was quite engrossed in watching Ben eat and asked DeAnn if his mommy could have a baby Ben too. That of course led into the question like - will she feed Ben like you are - how does the milk get made, etc.. They will be pros when it is our turn to have a new baby. I almost forgot to explain the video. They are pretending that Ben has an electric force field around him. When they try to touch him they are thrown off him. That stinkin video just won't run - maybe next time.

deb spent like over twenty years lactating, so it shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone that her body kept producing a little milk for years after she stopped breastfeeding. once, when johner was like four or five years old (maybe younger? i don't know...) he started asking about breastfeeding, so deb, being the nut that she is, said, "let's see if we've got any more milk in here," whipped out her boob, and sure enough there was... so she asked johner if he wanted to try some, and, of course he did. so she squirted some into his mouth (a few inches away) and he smacked his lips and said "mmmmm... sweet milk...." maybe that story comes off as completely oedipal and sick, but i think it's so funny and awesome and deb....
