More Pictures of Benjamin Michael Singer!

UPDATED 04/07/2004

Here are some pictures of the second week of Benjamin's life!  We've been to the pediatrician's office once or twice to ask about things, and it seems he's gained a pound already.  He certainly spends enough of his time eating!  And he's certainly proficient at sleeping (lots of those pictures below) and pooping (you don't really want to see those pictures!).  Nonna, now grand-nonna, drove up from Chicago with her cousin Sal for a quick visit to her new great-grandchild.  Melissa's father Jack flew in from Austin to spend a few days with us, and we opened a special bottle of wine dedicated to Melissa.  Jack was great at feeding him in the middle of the night (1-3am is Benjamin's "happy time") so we could get some sleep!  Teresa, AnneMarie, and Jeanne all visited again to help out.  Melissa had lots of fun calling friends and family around the US to tell them the good news, while Joel likes to read about all the ways to help Benjamin play, grow, and learn.

Joel's folks will be visiting in mid-April, so soon we'll get some pictures of them, too.  Off to get some sleep now!  (After feeding the sprout again -- boy, is he hungry!)
