meet ben.

benjamin ryan pressner. aka our little brp. ;o)
march 24, 2009. 11:44pm. 8 pounds. 0 ounces. 19 3/4 inches.




not the greatest picture and i'm saving the first family picture and some that may need to be censored for the massive blog post on how little benny bean came to join us. picture is from today. snapped quickly while he was chilling. he has been quite the calm, little guy. hope he stays that way.

we're still at the hospital. yes, still. leaving tomorrow morning. hope to update with some more detailed information on the delivery then. but for now, i'm off to nap!

oh welcome to the world, Ben! Shannon - thanks for posting a picture! I can't get over how blonde he is! So glad to hear he's calm (that's a sign of good parenting already). Take things easy, post when you can... sleep is the most important thing right now. Hugs to you & Nick!

such a handsome young man with all of that hair! he's looking quite content too! CONGRATULATIONS to you all! I hope all is well with you- anxious to hear how it went- sorry to hear you're not home yet.
I had to laugh about going to the movies- when I was in labor the first time the nurses told me to go see a movie to pass the time!
