On Saturday, Griffin and I drove to Sisters with my mom, Becca, Katrina, Sadie, and Finn to visit the Bensons and meet the newest member of their family. Luke Manuel was born on September 25th, so he was just 4 days old when we visited. He was so tiny and adorable with lots of dark hair and a sweet little face. It was fun getting to hold a newborn baby again!
Griffin and Finley were mostly interested in playing with a balloon and the tissue paper from the gifts we brought. They seemed so big and grown up compared to baby Luke. It's crazy how quickly they grow out of that "baby" stage.
It was so good to see Robin and get to be there while Luke was in the room with her. She looked amazing and seemed to be feeling up for anything. She has such amazing strength and endurance, especially considering all the trials that she has had to face in her life. I am proud of her and so thankful that she and Luke are both recovering so well.
After our visit at the hospital in Bend, we went to Mark and Robin's house in Sisters to see Ben, Ryan, and Robin's parents. Ben didn't know that we were coming, so when he opened the door and saw Sadie there he was
beyond excited! They immediately started running around and playing with each other. It was so cute! Finn and Griffin had fun playing with toys and having a nice open space to crawl around. Sadie and Ben set up a bowling game in the hallway, which was so fitting since we all have fun memories of bowling with the Bensons (:
And here is Ryan cuddling with his Nana after his nap. So sweet!!
