Maci's stern with Bentley when she needs to be, but she always lets Benny have a little fun, too. That kid's already a pro at selfies!

Rather than just letting Bentley sit in front of the TV for entertainment, mama Maci stimulates his brain with memory games. So educational.

Maci always makes sure Bentley's seatbelt (and carseat) is securely fastened. That's precious cargo she's got there.

Even if he's just swimming in a 5-foot-deep swimming pool, Maci makes sure that Bentley is always safe in a life vest and a snorkle mask. All the cool kids have 'em.

Even though things didn't work out with Bentley's dad Ryan, Maci always make sure that they do activities with Benny together so he can see his parents getting along. Awwww.

Dental hygiene is a must! Maci takes Benny for regular checkups with the dentist (and the docs).

Maci's already teaching Bentley how to be a gentleman. One day, he's going to make one gal very happy.

And lastly, just because Maci had Benny as a teenager doesn't mean she endorses it for other teens. #NoTeenPreg! Amen to that, you guys.
