Bennett Valentine Ozdych

Hey, Everyone!

I am so sorry that it's taken us nearly a week to post... as you can imagine, it's been a pretty busy time for our family. As you can see, we've finally decided on a name for my new brother. It took Mommy and Daddy until about 15 minutes before they left the hospital, but we brought home Bennett Valentine Ozdych on Sunday afternoon!

But before all of that happened, Grandma and Bupa came to visit on Saturday. They thought our new baby was pretty cute.

Grandma and I hung out and watched Monsters, Inc. It's one of my favorites!


This is a cute funny picture my mommy took of Bennett in the middle of the night... he kind of looks like he's pouting in his sleep!


Here's Daddy changing Bennett before he comes home! Kinda looks like he's ready to go skiing, huh??


Before they came home, Bennett needed another nap.


We put Ben in his carseat... I don't think he quite knows what's going on. But Mommy and Daddy said that he fills out his carseat quite a bit better than I did! (But he weighs a pound and a half more than I did!)



I'm ready to take home my baby brother!


Grandma and Bupa were waiting for us when we got there. I think Bennett likes hanging out with her, don't you? I guess I can share!

Yeah, he's pretty cute, huh?


On Monday, Mommy and Daddy and I gave our baby his first "sponge bath". He seemed to like it okay. I helped Mommy with his socks and hat! This big sister stuff is fun!

After his bath, I got to hold Bennett for a little while. I was very gentle.

I think Daddy's in love!


Okay, well, you'll have to forgive the short commentary, but I hope the pictures are okay. We have some more because we've had some other visitors, but my guess is I won't be able to update again until after this weekend. I'm such a lucky girl to get to see all of my family! Having a new baby is really fun. Maybe Mommy can't pick me up, but Daddy got this week off, so it's been terrific having him around. Mommy says that Bennett is eating well and sleeping well. He doesn't cry very much. Yesterday we went to the doctor and he weighed 6 lbs 11 ozs. which is really close to what he was when he was born. And I got to step on the scale - I've gained a pound and a half in three months! I'm such a big girl now... which is good, because now I'm a big sister!
Hoping to see you all soon,
Love, Mollee
