Benjamin & Ruby's Newborn Photos

Oh how I love my little Benjamin & Ruby. They were just a couple weeks old when these were taken. And it's taken me oh...eight months to finally share them.  But I am more in love with them now then when we first got them. They are so special and important to me. Life with multiples is crazy and fast-paced and time just blurs and in a blink of an eye my babies are not so tiny anymore. Their precious little features remind me of just how blessed Scott and I are to have our Benny Boo Boo and Ruby Zu Zu a part of our family. 

A big thank you to Trina Harris Photography.

All About /// Benjamin

Our sweet, tiny Benjamin Martin sure did keep us on our toes in the beginning! He is such a joy! Here are my thoughts/facts about Mister Ben the past four months:

As a Newborn:

-Very slow eater. He takes his time.

-He makes the funniest faces. He has no fat on him so his skin just wrinkles like a little old man's. We call him Benjamin Button.

-Always has his hand by his face.

-Big, bright eyes!

-Constantly stuffy and making raspy, snorting sounds.

-Just a tiny little guy that we love to kiss and cuddle.

At 10 weeks:

-Makes lots of smiley faces.

-Still snorts.

-Has a really goopy right eye that we constantly have to wipe, poor thing.

-Very needy. Loves to be held.

-Has a fast metabolism and still eats slowly.

-Losing hair on top :( Looks like a little Franciscan Friar.

-Always grunting, stretching, moving. Grandpa says your spirit is just too big for that little body!

-Super strong neck/head.

-Likes to look this way and that way and just about wiggles out of our arms!

-Slept through the night for the first time--8 hours. Good boy!

Now at 4 Months:

-Super duper smiley! His smiles are big and gummy and just plain adorable.

-A very happy boy. He likes to talk, talk, talk and giggle!

-Nickname: BenJAMMIN

-Starting to finally get some chunk.

-Very tall and lanky still but looks so much fuller and chubby from when he was first born.

-Always needs to cough. Still stuffy but clearing up.

-Eye is all better. And his eyes are so light, bright blue. They are gorgeous. He is our most blue-eyed child.

-Loves the swing and will take a nice, long nap each day in it.

-Wakes up about once a night. And when he does, he is starving. He thinks he's going to die. We cannot get that bottle in his mouth fast enough.

-Getting a little more hair, not much hah.

-Is loving his fingers right now. If his binky isn't in his mouth, his fingers are.

-Still has a strong neck and is so good at doing tummy time.

I love my happy Benjamin! He is perfect in every way.
