I (Auntie Janie) am thrilled to report that Benjamin was born this morning, April 4th, at 7:01 AM, weighing in at 7 lbs. 7 oz.
Audrey and baby are doing great. They are in their private room together, bonding and loving!
Big brothers William and Alexander have already fallen in love with the newest addition to the family.
William told me and my parents that he wanted to sing “Ben-the-min” the birthday song. When we started singing, “Happy Birthday,” he told us it was the wrong song, and proceeded to sing – I kid you not – “Go Ben-the-min, it’s your birthday, go Ben-the-min, it’s your birthday.” SO CUTE!
And Alexander just squealed with delight when he saw his little brother. “Baby!” he shouted. Though it sounded more like, “Bee-bee!”
Thank you so much for all your support, prayers and thoughts!! We all appreciate it!
