Ben is Almost Four Weeks Old

Wow, Ben is almost four weeks old! In some ways it seems like he's been here for much longer than that and in other ways it feels like we just brought him home. He is honestly the most wonderful baby. He is always so pleasant. The only time we've ever heard him cry is when we take too long to change his diaper. He only fusses when he's hungry or when he wants his pacifier. He sleeps at night and loves to be cuddled during the day. Last night he only woke up once to eat and he went right back to sleep. Ben can hold his head up for short periods and loves to look at Mommy and Daddy and at lights and windows. At his doctor's visit this week, he weighed 7 pounds and 3 ounces and is finally starting to fit in his 0-3 month clothes. He is so tiny and yet so strong. Ben is more amazing and wonderful than we ever imagined he would be and we continue to be amazed with how God has blessed us.
