About Me

A mom of 4, I blog very rarely, and use this mostly for future memory of when I forgot to capture these events in a baby book somewhere.

benjamin baxter james is here!

(this is scott, by the way)
benjamin made his entrance on monday, august 10th at 12:44pm. no complications with the c-section, and that joker came out screaming and looking all perfect. he weighs 8lbs 1 oz and measured 20 inches in length (though i think they shorted him). jaime did wonderfully. she spent the majority of the day in a drug-induced daze, although she was cogent during the few times that she woke up. benjamin has been a pretty calm guy so far, and is starting to get the hang of this thing we call 'feeding'. will and kirstine have been up to see him a few times and they are great with him, but can be a little overzealous in their hugging and squeezing from time to time. special thanks to gran and papa for being so helpful while they are up here.
we're looking to go home on thursday morning/afternoon. thanks for all of your prayers.
