The Cannon Hackett Chronicle

Two "firsts" today:

Benjamin went on his first outing (Irene called it his first "field trip") today, and behaved wonderfully, both in the car and in the store. Irene and I went to Walmart together this morning to get more baby supplies, etc. Every now and then he'd make a little noise, but mostly he just slept under the covering of his car seat.

Then Clay was able to take off from work to come with me to Benjamin's first pediatrician visit. All went very well. We really liked the pediatrician, and he answered the tons of questions I had brought with me. Little Ben, on the other hand, did NOT enjoy the visit, and screamed most of the time. That's ok, though. I know just how he feels.
