Our first post...


Hello everyone!! I know people are always asking how Ben is doing.   It's hard for our friends and family who live far away from us.  I try to keep my Myspace updated with pictures of Benny, but not everyone has that.  So I thought this would be a good way for people to see pictures and read stories of all the neat stuff Ben does as he grows.  Of course the real thing is better, so people are more than welcome to come visit him whenever you are in the area.  

Benjamin is already over 3 months old!! Time flies.  We now know what people mean when they say treasure every moment.  A few days ago, I packed all of his clothes that are too small.  It was kind of sad.  Our little boy is getting so big already.  But I know that each stage of his life will have fun aspects.  

Ben started sleeping through the night at about 6 weeks old.  That is much appreciated!  He has bath time and goes to bed at 8:00 every night.  He recently has been sleeping 12 hours a night! He's been smiling and laughing for awhile.  We love that.  Now he's more interactive.  He is very close to rolling over.  This morning, he was on his side then he got frustrated.  

Ben has a slight obsession.  Those who know Russ will think this is fitting of his offspring.  FOOTBALL!!! Ben loves it.  If he's crying or fussy and all of his needs have been met, we turn on football.  Once his eyes connect with the tv, he stops crying and is happy.  Until commercials that is.  I don't know what we are going to do when January comes around.  

I will add a few recent pictures and maybe a slideshow of his life so far.  Of course everything he does is just amazing to us.  So be sure to check back often!!
