Benjamin’s Birthday

I’d love for you all to see Benjamin’s Birthday video, but I’m not gonna post it inline on the website. See I don’t want anything to distract you from it.
Every single frame of this video is carefully thought-out, in an attempt to capture the moment. So many emotions hit you on a day like that, [...]

The Sneeze

The full video is coming some time later this week, but Nic’s dad caught this clip, and I thought we’d share it with you all — cause it’s so cute. Sorry about the low light in the room…

He Has a Name

Well it’s not Dylan, Buddy or Achmeed, but I think we’ve decided. Ladies and gentlmen of the Internets, I’m proud to announce the birth of a brand new U.S. Citizen: Benjamin Wyndham Wise.

No Name Yet

The question on everyone’s lips is what’s his name. And the answer is… We don’t know yet! But relax, we do have an idea or two - despite the 50,000 useless names in our book of 55,000 (Achmed, Achmeed, Achmar, Achmaree, etc…). I promise I will update when we have a name. I also have [...]

The day after

Half hour until go time

Trial pushing went well, but they decided to give her another half hour before they make a go of it.
Oh and that’s 9am to 9pm. We intend to get some sleep tonite!
Next post will be with baby news. See you all on the other side. Nic appreciates your prayers and happy thoughts!
