Welcome to Baby Ben

Welcome Benson Michael Foster, born January 20, 2009 at 9:57 am. Momma and Daddy Foster and Baby Ben are simply amazing. I have been able to enjoy this first week with them and I remember now why we have our children when we are young. There have been sleepless nights but he isn't fussy, just awake. He and I are bonding during these sleepless nights when the swing or the bouncer do not satisfy Baby Ben. Only Grandma's shoulder works for falling asleep after he enjoys his snack and awake time. Since the apartment is only 6 steps across, I have introduced baby ben to the ipod while we pace and discuss the latest BYU devotional or the novel Rebecca. Tanner came in last night and said "He looks different. He's grown up." I agree completely. He doesn't have his newborn look anymore. He has a very thoughtful, calm demeanor. Hal does a very good impression of Ben's thoughts and experiences. They are very mature and highminded. He is Benson, already.
