  Ben continues to sleep very well.
  
  Milo started potty training this week wearing underwear for the majority of the day. He pees and poops in the potty with no problem, there has been only one accident and it was on the way to the potty. So far, Milo's catching on really well and we're very proud of him.
  
  Baba was here a few weeks ago for a solo visit and we hosted an Easter Egg Hunt. Today was Helena's birthday celebration and we had a great time at the Hess's with many photo opportunities as you can see from the latest album.

  Merritt and Milo bought ladybugs to put in the garden. Usually Merritt places the ladybugs on the plants but this time Milo wanted to. He ended up with ladybugs all over his hands and sleeves so Merritt had to brush him off.
  
  Later that afternoon I come home and we're all sitting in the basement. Milo's on the piano bench when he says, "Mommy, I head wind in my ear."
  
  Immediately Merritt suspects, "Uh-oh, maybe a ladybug got in your ear." I'm doubtful but I quickly check and looking into his left ear I see the bug's face looking back at me. Then turn around and crawl in.
  
  Milo was pretty freaked out.
  
  It wouldn't come out so we went to the hospital ER at UCSF which was less than a mile away. Fortunately we had already booked our nanny to come that night and she was looking after Ben. At the ER, the nurses took his vitals and then we had to wait for the Pediatrician to arrive. While waiting, Merritt noticed that the ladybug was trying to crawl out and held Milo's hands so that he couldn't scratch his ear (which was probably what was keeping it in there for so long in the first place) and it came crawling out on its own.

  Ben is beginning to coo and smile now. He looks a lot like his Uncle Paul. Milo is still crazy about his "Baby Ben" showering him with lots of hugs and kisses.
  
  I call them the Yin and Yang Brothers: where Milo was so intense, Ben is quite mellow. Also one has blonde hair and the other black.
  
  Merritt is recovering well and very happy to have such a snuggly newborn.
