Baby Benjamin is Here!!

Baby Benjamin "Ben" Miles arrived on Friday, September 4th at 3:20 in the afternoon. Unlike the other 3 kids where the delivery was scheduled, this time around, even though delivery was planned for next Thursday (two weeks before the due date), baby Ben decided he wanted to show up 3 weeks early. He weighed in at 6 lbs, 7 ounces and was 19.25 inches long.

GAYLE said...

What great pictures Ashley. It was so strange that I had talked to you the day before and then Brent called and said the baby was born! I was so surprised. But he is so cute and the best part is how healthy he looks. I know you were getting quite miserable so I'm kind of glad he came a little early. He looks like he was ready--I hope you were.

I posted a comment on Kirk's Facebook page, but just in case he didn't pass it along...
He's a beautiful baby! We're so glad it all went well, even with an early arrival.
We look forward to meeting him.
