Our Baby Boy

Bennett Charles Mason was born on Monday July 20, 2009 at 9:02 pm. He weighed in at a whopping 8 lbs. 4.5 ozs. and measured 19.5 inches. We are so happy to have him here! We arrived at the hospital at 7:00 pm and he was born two hours later- he came fast! (More details to come.) Everything went smoothly and he and mom are doing very well. He is so mellow and calm, he doesn't cry unless he is starving! Here are just a few pics of him.
Here he is before leaving the hospital. He looks like a little old man in those shorts, they are a little big!

Mom and baby. Do I look tired to you?!!

We have three kids- ahhhh! The girls are so proud of their baby brother. They love him to death.



Niah is already a huge helper. She loves Bennett and has to tell everyone that she has a new baby brother named Bennett Charles Mason.



This is right after he was born.





Look at that proud papa! I think Bennett looks a lot like B.





When Chloe got to the hospital to meet him for the first time, she walked in the room, hopped up on the bed and said, "I hode im!" She loves him so much.




He looks a little scary in this photo, but it was the first one we got of him. I think he's so cute!!



We are so happy to have him here. We're grateful that he is healthy and well. More pictures to come when I have a free minute!!
