Tuxedo Man

Benjamin has his own tuxedo! Yep, you heard me correctly. Linz and Donnie bought it for him when his Aunt Heather and Uncle Bill got married...

In July, after Joshua, Erica, Thalia and I returned from Texas, Lindsey and I decided to have a photo shoot for Benjamin - wearing his tux, of course! We put on the tux, and went next door to see Betty...and ask her if we could take photos of our little man in her beautiful yard.

She said, "Of course!"

The grass, however, was a little wet and since Benjamin was a barefoot tuxedo man, he preferred NOT to be in the grass....

Benjamin started off next to Betty's white bench...

Then we moved to the front porch...with the fern...and we also took off the jacket... now our little man was modeling the vest...

Benjamin was looking around doing his photo shoot and noticed that Betty had a FAN on her front porch...he was a bit curious about that...he only has them in his house...and Mimi and Papa have them up high IN their house...but not outside!!! We explained that some people put them on their porches...

that made him happy... We all know how much Benjamin loves fans..

I told him he looked absolutely adorable in his tuxedo...Loving to hear that, he just kept smiling for us...
and laughing...
and watching the fan...

His sweet mama took off his britches...or I guess they're called slacks or maybe trousers when it's a tuxedo?He was a little bit...well, embarrassed at first...Then Betty brought out their pup...

and Benjamin forgot all about the fact that he was taking pictures in his diaper...

and he went back to smiling for the camera...
I've also thought men look so incredible in a tuxedo...and now I know that even little men look incredible in one too!

I'm with you Judy, I love to see a man in a tuxedo even if they're not handsom=they are in a tuxedo, but Benjamin is so handsome in his even without his pants. I would love to have a picture of him standing with his tuxedo. Maybe? I love you Benjamin. Saddie
