Baby Benson!!


Baby Benson
7lbs 5oz  19 1/2 in long
We are all super excited to have our little baby Benson with us!
Birth Story-
At 3:00 we all headed to the Desert Museum, on the drive there I felt contractions the whole way but they were not painful at all, so we went to the museum but there I had us go to just two quick things.  Alden was really excited about the museum and I felt bad leaving but I thought it would be best. (this was about 4:00) I took the Mom, Dad and the boys home then went to get Michael.  I was thinking we would walk around for awhile first..still wasn't in any pain but we went to the hospital so we would be close, this was about 4:45. There was a line to get admitted so we waited, then went back to triage around 5:30.  By this time I was in some pain. She checked me and said I was a 4.  A 4 I had been at a 4 for 2 weeks!! I was disappointed, she went back to check my records, and I guess decide if I was actually in labor, but my water broke shortly thereafter at 6:00, she came back at 6:10 and had me taken to a labor room, there I asked her to check me again.  She did not respond but got on the phone yelling, Help I need Help now and started running around opening the door, anyways I was in extreme pain and was ready to push and started pushing, the doctor got there just in time to catch sweet little Benson at 6:21 P.M.  All in all it was a great delivery!





When Calvin came in and saw Benson for the first time, he said, "Baby, Cute"  He is now a big brother of a cute little baby!

 Alden was super excited to meet his baby brother.  He has been a big helper getting everything ready for Baby Benson's arrival and knew he was coming soon.


Grandma and Grandpa came in just the right time to be here for Benson's big day!  They have been a huge help and we are grateful for all they have done for us and that they can be here!
