3 Months Later

Traci and I were at the hospital exactly 3 months ago at this exact time. She was laying on the delivery bed and I was sitting near her while trying to distract her of the pain. The TV was on as the dvd of "Too Cute Puppies" kept on replaying over and over. We kept the lights in room dimmed and off in the distance the occasional cry of newborns in the post maternity rooms reminded us that our life would soon change.

Three months later I can still hear the cries of a newborn in the distance as I write this post; mostly because Traci is trying to put Ben to sleep upstairs. Today Traci dropped Ben and I at the Abandoned Honda dealership and we slowly made our way back home. Ben practically slept the whole way and perhaps he overslept which is why he is wide awake at 10:30 pm. Besides taking pictures of Ben with a 3 candle cupcake, we didn't do much. We walked around Shopko to see all the seasonal sales and bought Ben a Matchbox 1955 Cadillac Fleetwood and a Hot Wheels 1970 Plymouth AAR Cuda.

Happy Birthday Ben! Now, I must end this post and head upstairs to help your mom and put you to sleep.
