I always feel a little weird posting here, I don't know why, but this was my first home here at JM, so...here I go!
Ben is going to be 15 months old this month and he does.not.sit.still.ever (except when he's sleeping, which he blessedly does a lot of at night now..knock on wood). He has this enormous personality and I can't get enough of him - even though by the end of the day I'm BEAT, just from trying to keep him entertained and chasing him around. My lord is he cute though, it's ridiculous. He's just so SILLY and he picks up on things so fast, and he LAUGHS all the time these days and it's just soooooo cute. I love chasing him around because I just can't get over how cute he looks when he runs, it makes my heart want to explode into about a million pieces.
Big smiles for daddy!
We found that kitchen for $20 at a garage sale...he LOVES it, and was trying to climb in the oven the other night! 
The other night he emptied out the dogs basket of toys and entertained himself for a good 15 minutes with it!
We still aren't quite ready to think about another - but I think within a few months we will be NTNP...we'll see. I've finally gotten this parenting thing figured out, and I'm afraid to disturb the delicate balance now!

Ben is VERY cute! He sounds like such a joy. I too love my boy immensely.
I was lmao at the pic of him climbing into the toy oven. You got a great deal on that toy - it's huge!

I always love it when you post here! You shouldn't feel weird about it. This was your first home and I remember you when you first started posting. I also remember you BFP!
Ben is sooo cute! I have always thought he was a super cute little boy and he just keeps getting cuter. You always have the best siggies too.
I know I have asked you this before but I forgot.. What happened when you stopped pumping when Ben turned one? Did your milk supply drop and then you couldn't nurse? The reason I ask is that I would LOVE to stop pumping but I don't want to risk losing my milk supply so much that Oliver doesn't nurse anymore. I'm pumping 1-2 times while at work. I'm kind of thinking about giving him whole milk while I'm at work but I don't know...
His hair seems to get lighter and lighter.

I remember you were one of the first to find my BFP post in the "Am I Pregnant" board! Gosh, that seems like so long ago!!
Well, my supply was fine when I stopped pumping, but Ben self weaned around 14 months. (I'm still leaking as a matter of fact.) I'm sure your supply will be fine...it always regulates to what you need. My supply was fine, Ben was just biting me every time we tried to nurse and he refused to latch on properly for like 4 days straight, so I decided he was trying to tell me he was done. Which made me sad, 2 years was always my goal.
Thanks for the compliments, ladies! We think Ben is pretty special. 
Oh! And I'm always happy to make siggies, I'm a siggy-holic lately!
