Benson's Baby Blessing

Our Little Family
The Albrechts
The Kijowskis and Redds

I just had to post these pictures of Benson's baby blessing.  He looked so darling in his little white suit.  We had lots of family come and support us.  Thank you to all of you who came and those who couldn't come too, you were there in our hearts:).

Motherhood

My blog has now officially turned into a baby blog, sorry! Since Benz is my life right now, he is the only thing that I have to blog about. I am totally okay with this though. I am loving motherhood and can't believe how much he has grown in the last 8 weeks that he has been alive. He now weighs a whopping 15 pounds and is super chubby! I am also starting to get to know him a little bit better. Lundon and I have discovered that he is pretty laid back and content, but if you don't listen to his little whimper letting you know he needs something, it can get ugly really fast. Lundon says that he gets his quick temper from me, but I beg to differ. He loves car rides, walks, and when I sing and dance to nursery rhymes for him. I am such a dork, but I will do anything to make him laugh and smile. He is a very cuddly baby and hates it when I try to put him down. My life has changed completely and although I can't seem to get anything done, I am enjoying the chaos because I am completely head over heels for my little man.

These last two picture were taken at 7 weeks old. Those cheeks are so chubby and kissable!
