Benjamin William Reed Weight


Here are some pictures of our son. We enjoy having him as a part of our family! His middle name is significant in that he is named William, after his grandpa William David Barber, and Reed, after his grandpa Weight.
He is such a GOOD baby. Granted, he's 6 days old, but so far he's been a very well tempered baby. He is a alert, quiet baby that hardly cries and when he does its not for very long. He loves to sleep, so much that we have to wake him up every 2.5 hours to feed. (we will see how long that lasts). I think he takes after his daddy in his looks and in his personality. Lets be honest though--- the weight genes are pretty dominant ones.

Here are some pictures .... they are from the past couple of days...

he is so sweet. Here's hoping he keeps up the good baby act. =) I would check out "On Becoming Babywise" if you haven't already... its all about getting baby on a predictable schedule (eating on sleeping) which makes everyone's life so much easier. Congratulations!
