Baby Moses



We love Auntie Janet!! The eating machine is getting used to being carted around like the prince that he is in his sweet basket

We luv Baths..


and hooded towels, of course
Campbell is getting used to getting his feet wet.. he'd better, or he and I will be fighting for the US Weekly while we sunbathe and watch Dad and Jbird shred at the beach.

Campbell's Fan Club



The Benz Bunch descended on the Bluffs this week, (we miss you, Kate) and we are so sad to see Nana B go home. When do we get our private jet to make Portland-San Diego travel easier? I have been bawling for 12 hours (hormonal, much?) seeing my mom leave. She has been making us the best breakfasts, filled our fridge with dinners for the week, cleaned our house, took care of the kids and just made me feel like I was being taken care of, even in the midst of sort of feeling like I'm falling apart. I guess it's sleep deprivation and the non-stop worry that I'm doing this wrong or that the baby isn't eating enough, sleeping too much, not sleeping enough, is turning yellow, isn't growing, is lethargic... aaaak.. what does the "Baby Whisperer" say? what do all my mom-friends say? Everyone has their two cents and I want to know.. I should just turn this computer off and try to nap, instead, I'm online searching for "feeding help" and reading OPBs about nursing and sleeping and schedules... I am going a little nuts, but know I need to take a deep breath and realize we'll figure it out. It has only been one week since we got home and we are just getting all of the kinks worked out and healing, growing and learning here.

Nice custom tees. :)



Uncle Joe.. can't wait for Campbell to be a Beaver fan... might have to wait till football season is over??

Week One

Campbell is so in love with Nana B. already. Happy One week Birthday!

Slumber party!! wake up, Jbird, time to to go school!!


smiles for big sis
Uncle Jordan and Auntie Stef
I don't think dressing him up is ever going to get old. I can't believe he'll be big enough for these before we know it.
Jadyn says "he is just like a peach"...awe. so true

aaah. so handsome.

Campbell is the 4th generation to use this basinette... yes, come hell or high water or oregon-trail-covered wagon, we got it down to southern California just in time for his arrival.

September 1st. We're Home sweet home... feels so good to be out of that hospital room.

Welcome to your new world, little (teeny) man!

Happy BIRTH day!

Last shot of Campbell "backstage" ... the scariest morning of my life.. I was a wreck.. freaked out about the surgery and still in disbelief that we were about to meet this little human. Before Jadyn left for school, she predicted the baby would be "Chloe"... and Dad and I woke up still deliberating on our choice of boy names

After nearly passing out from the glimpse of the surgery.. Dad has the surprise of his life with his baby boy... of course no event complete witout a good "justinism"...he's wearing his OR "SHrubs"

fresh out!!!

J.bird meets big C for the first time... she's pretty stoked on her "big sis" gifts, too.

the 3 split seconds that he stays swaddled.. his little legs and arms kick out of the burrito wrap in no time.


Thursday afterschool.. officially ONE day old. And big sis is so proud.. wore her "badge" all day. Skipped soccer practice to come visit her bro.



Friday morning in our glamourous hospital room.. He's getting bigger, right?




Big Sister comes for a visit on Friday afternoon. She is the offical "rotector of her baby brother," she told everyone at school... I think that means PROtector... awe, she is her father's daughter.


Campbell in his ONE outfit that fits him... I don't know why the hospital puts newborns in these karate shirts that I swear are size 2T... He was so happy to be in his fitted frenchie onesie. aaah.

After the days and nights that all ran into one another at the hospital were over and it was time for Campbell and me to see the light of day...we were so anxious to get home to our "new" life... and really put that diaper genie to use. ha.

Kirbys welcomed the newest kid on the block... Look out Olivia... you're old news. ;)
