We welcomed Ben into our family. All 9lbs 2oz and 20 inches of him.
I spent 3 nights in the hospital...our first 3 nights away from Jack EVER. But he came to visit us and his new baby brother every day...
After four long days, we finally got to head home to become a family of four.
At 5 days old, we headed out to the pediatrician for Ben's first checkup. While there, the doctor heard a heart murmur, and Mommy proceeded to have a meltdown. Lots of tears and one short little ECHO later, we learned he had a smallish sized VSD (ventricular septal defect) that we would continue to monitor, but shouldn't require any intervention.
A few days later, we ventured out for some professional newborn pictures. I so wish we'd done this with Jack. We will treasure these always.
