It's amazing how quickly the past two weeks have gone by!  We are enjoying every minute of this new addition, he is a charmer.  Jared mentioned maybe we should turn this into just a picture blog.  Good idea, I do plenty of those and that's probably what our few followers want to see most.  We're selfishly enjoying our time with Bennett.
Here's our handsome little guy getting tummy time today.  He is now weighing in at 9 lbs 11 oz!  And the Dr. said it's great- let him eat.  We are fortunate to have such a mellow baby, he doesn't cry unless he actually needs something, like some one on one time, or a diaper change, or if he's hungry.  This outfit is a newborn size but he barely fits into the puppy feet pants.  Life is great, we are both taking some shifts to feed him at night so we aren't exhausted.  The last couple of nights he's been able to sleep for 5 hours at a time so we are feeling pretty lucky to be getting in some Zs.  
Jared's Dad came through yesterday and he stayed last night.  They were able to hang the rest of our doors in the basement except one that didn't get ordered and one that needs a repair.  The next step will be to paint the doors and walls.  We plan on borrowing an airless sprayer that worked very well to prime.  We hope to have the basement open for business this summer...just in time for some adoption party BBQs.
