Our Generation: Vol. 1 No. 1 Meet James Benjamin Brown

Welcome to the family Baby Brother Ben!
James Benjamin Brown joined our family on April 5, 2009 at 6:11am.
He was 7 lbs. 5 oz. and 19 3/4 in. long.
We are thrilled to have welcomed Ben to the world. Mia is excelling at big-sisterhood by showing her love for Baby Brother Ben (kisses on his forehead, touching his hands and saying, "I want to hold he!"), bringing us diapers during diaper changes, telling us what he needs ("He needs a pacifier!", "Move his car seat Mama") and by telling mommy what his name is (Mommy likes to call him Benjamin but Mia says, "No mommy, it's Ben!"). Big sister Ulla is doing great too even though she's been domoted back to being #3 again.
Ben seems to be a pretty easy going little guy so far. We are very much looking forward to watching him grow and become a little person.

A very special thanks goes out to Jackie for her endless help staying overnight to watch Mia while we went to the hospital. Also for keeping her entertained throughout the day until Abi could arrive. Andrew was a big help too!
