Meet the new addition

Benson Ray Heeren entered the world at 3:14 a.m., weighing 7 lbs 14 ounces and was 21 inches long. He is perfect!!!

Amanda was awesome and had a great labor and delivery. She pushed for, at the max, 20 minutes. It was thru 5 contractions!!! She had some great coaches, Matt, her mom and her baby sister. I was so proud of her!

Here are Matt and Amanda after she got her epidural and right before little Benson was born.
Check out that little pouty face. They say he gets that from his mom:)


Isn't he just precious?!



Amanda looking beautiful as always! and just think this was RIGHT after she gave birth!


Mommy and Daddy giving Benson lots of love!



One big happy family!
Congrats to Matt and Amanda!
I love you guys!

How exciting! He is ABSOLUTELY PRECIOUS! And, btw, no woman should look that beautiful right after birth! :)
