Hello World!

My Fiance and I had our Baby 2 weeks ago. I made this compilation video as a sort of sentimental push gift for her.

Our Son was Born 12/11/06 at 10:35 PM by C Section.
He weighed 7 pounds 15 ounces and was 19.5" long.

We named him Benjamin Rafael Asherson.

Benjamin was my Grandfathers name, and was someone that was loved by everyone.

Rafael is the name of my Fiance's Uncle whose life was taken from him at the young age of 33 years old, and coincidentally is also the name of my Grandfathers Brother.

Just wanted to share with everyone our good news.

Being a new Parent, it is tough, but I would not trade it for anything. I never knew I could love something so much. Now I know how my parents feel about me, and that too changes everything.

In anycase, Enjoy. it is Windows media player and is around 13.5 megs. IT should stream fine on a high speed connection, but if need be right click and save as to view it.

Alon

Let me be the first one to congratulate you!

What a beautiful baby boy. The video was very very touching. My son and daughter were born a little over three years ago, and it brought back all the memories like it happened yesterday.

I am very happy for you, and I know you'll make a great father.

Congratulations - now the fun/work really begins. I have a 4-yr boy and a 2-yr boy; I understand.

Congrats, Ash. Being a dad is not easy, but I wouldn't trade it for anything. Wait until he's a teenager! It gets tougher as you go, but you get wiser while they're growing up, so it all averages out in the end.

If you have half as much fun with Benjamin as I've had with my three kids, you're in for the time of your life.
