Well, it's the end of our second weekend at home. They never seem to last long enough...
My dad came down on Friday night, and after showing us all how to entertain Ben on Saturday (it's a wonder he survived all week without his grandpa!), he and my mom returned to Nashville on Saturday afternoon. Ben and I both had a good cry, but decided that we were going to be just fine! So far, so good. Our little family had our first outing last night - going to visit Kelley and Scott's new baby, Carter, and then out for dinner at Moe's. Ben did so well, it gave us hope for future public appearances. :)
We also had the chance to weigh Ben and discovered that, thanks to a very healthy appetite, he's gained one whole pound and now weighs more than 9 pounds! We're so thankful for his health and the happiness he's already brought to us.
P.S. You all know "the mailman" was just a joke, right?! The fact that he's gotten more votes than I have is unacceptable!

Grandma had a good cry when she left too but she has no doubt that your new little family is ready to make it on their own! I will always cherish the memories made during the past couple of weeks, especially those precious middle of the night rocking sessions, just me and Ben, walking the floors and humming Jesus Loves Me! Love, Mom/Grandma
