One year ago....

Benjamin James House was 3 days old. He weighed 7 lbs and 8 oz at birth and was the sweetest thing at 20.5 inches. Today, at 1 year and 3 days, he weighs 22 lbs and is 31.5 inches tall. He is practically perfect in every way, with the exception of his right ear. Ben will be getting tubes in his ears at 7:30 am EST, and I am looking forward to having my dancing darling back. No more misery for my Ben-Ben. Here are some pictures from his first days of life. Ahh, this year has gone much too fast.

A first look at my baby Ben.

Mama and my boy.
Dada.
Audrey's fist glimpse at her baby brother.
Pride. Love. Curiosity. A little unsure.
Four in a family.
Mama, and her babies.
Love at first sight. First grandson.
This is one of my favorite all time pics. The googly look in Audrey's eyes and the excitement that I know she felt and the anticipation of having her brother home all combined for this wild look.
A moment of sweetness.
Sweet little man at one week old.
