We had a phone call from Graham who was at the hospital to tell us that Becky was going to have a cesarean and please could we come and get Alex who was there with him. We had a clear run at that time of night and got to the hospital at Baulkam Hills just after 10.00pm. By the time we had taken Alex home to get his clothes etc. and got back to the hospital, the baby had just been born. We had a very quick visit to see the baby but then had to take a very tired Alex home. By the time we got him into bed it was well after 1.00am.
He is a delight to have around even if he does get first dips of the cake mix.
The new baby is going to be called Benjamin, obviously shortened to Ben. He weighed 4lbs 1oz at birth which is a massive weight when compared to Alex and he wasn't covered in tubes. Becky was a bit upset that she couldn't carry him to full term but 5 weeks early is a pretty good compared to Alex. Becky left the hospital yesterday but little BJ has to stay there until he reaches his due birth date so Mom has to make regular trips back to feed him.
Here's what you have been waiting for, Ben in all his glory.
Isn't he cute!! I think there is a bit of his Grandfathers good looks there!!
A nice Fathers Day present.
