We have such a great little baby named Ben. Maybe one day he'll be Big Ben? Not yet, though! After losing a bit of weight his first two days, he's back up over the 6lb. mark! Atta' boy! I figure it's about time that everyone gets to know him, so here goes...
Ben's likes: being held, tucking his legs up like a little frog, sucking his left hand, kicking his way across the bassinet (isn't that crazy? he's already moving), sleeping all day long, falling asleep during meals, his new slippers from grandma, daddy's guitar playing, mommy's kisses
Ben's dislikes: diaper changes (especially that chilly diaper wipe!), sleeping at night, losing at Speed Scrabble, and Dwight from The Office.
He's a pretty likable guy, I guess! Erin and I are trying to help him with the sleeping at night thing, but since we know it's time to sleep at night, we fall asleep trying to help him. He is his own man already.
Here's a 2-minute video of us giving him his first bath. It gets a little long if you're not a huge fan of baby-washing, but at least watch the first minute for some good scenes. =)

Your right Grandma's do have good tips except I can't believe she forgot to tell you to put a wash cloth over that cold little pee-pee!!It was priceless though kinda like the bike scene in your wedding video.Soooo Special and I heard Jeremy's little comment about ben's penis.

That is great! I think it could be good blackmail when he is 16. And way to go Dad... so brave to use your hand as a shield!
