Love Ben. Love love love Ben. He is soooo cute.

But, please give us words too...

Hope you are well!
I took care of my friends four month old last week while she was at work. I thought of you. The second day it still took me from 9 am til 1pm to get organized enough to leave the house. I know you are enjoying your Ben! He is adorable.

Each time I check to see if there is a new post a part of me doesn't want there to be b/c I love this photo greeting me SO much - it makes me smile & it makes me feel peaceful. He is so so sweet Andrea.

Gosh, you know, I was just thinking about how hard it was for you all to get pregnant, but then, I was looking back through some of your earliest posts. When you think about it, you've really only been married for about 2 and a half or three years. Granted, when you're in the midst of infertility, it completely sucks to high heaven, but when you're on the other side of it, I wonder if you just breathe a big sigh of relief and thank your lucky stars....I think you all would have made things work out no matter what. So many congratulations!

He's like a dream! It seems like we waited so long for him to arrive, but also that he's been here forever! I've followed your blog for a while now, and I think he's as wonderful as he could possilby be! Congrats! :D He is so amazing. You do a wonderful job of capturing his amzing-ness!

Mmmm.... mommy and ben pic's indeed. You know, I was just scrolling through your archives, and coming back to the main page it made the arrival of Ben that much more touching. Hope you got the magic I mailed off, in the midst of the whirlwind of cute!

Posted by: Meg at January 11, 2007 05:58 PM

Hee! He is totally kissable! A million congratulations again.

Posted by: jecca at January 11, 2007 01:38 PM

I am a new reader. My friend suggested this blog to me this week. I just want to say thank you. I have gone back in your archives and have been reading about your struggle with infertility and I am finding much comfort in your words and the words of others who have written in on the topic. This is what a blog is truly for. I'm so happy that your struggle has ended in such happiness and joy. Your boy is beautiful.

Posted by: Jenna at January 11, 2007 09:13 AM

awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. :)
He is beautiful. Absolutely.

Posted by: rachael at January 10, 2007 04:56 PM

holy cow you are right- the cute is overwhelming. he looks so serene here.

I came across a quote one time that this photograph brings to mind . It went something like:

each new life comes with the message that god is not yet weary of humankind

looking at your site during these early days reminds me of when I first became a mother. I had studied, and rehearsed, and prepared in every which way I knew how, but i had no inkling the demarcation line between before and after would be so instantaneous, and so deep. there was before my sons. and then there was after. and although i had had a rich life before, and probably would have without, to think about those years is like looking through some other girl's photo album. interesting, but not me.

He looks like a crystal child-
His eyes are amazing!

A special boy indeed.

Congratulations on his safe and joyous arrival.

Posted by: sally at January 9, 2007 02:22 AM

Look at the photo of him and then look over at the photo of you on the left side of your blog. If he is not the spittin image of you, I don't think one exists. It's quite amazing. And god yes, what a great face.

Posted by: Lauren (Knitting in the Desert) at January 8, 2007 11:25 PM

Man oh man, that is one cute baby! Wow.

Posted by: Rae at January 8, 2007 10:37 PM

Tiny tiger indeed!

Posted by: Dr. S at January 8, 2007 09:23 PM

He might look like an itty bitty baby boy, but he's taking it ALL in. And some day, in the not-too-distant future, it's going to freak you out how much he knows. Be afraid. Be very afraid! ; )

Posted by: surcie at January 8, 2007 07:52 PM

even my husband is now an official ben fan.

Posted by: kristen at January 8, 2007 04:41 PM

I have been going to your Superhero site and Flickr several times a day since Ben made his grand entry. (A little less often before that. I loved all the pregnant pictures as well.) He is just so extremely adorable. I just had to post after seeing this new set of photos. I can't wait to officially meet him next time we visit.
