    Thanks gang! Got to go home from the hospital yesterday evening. Failed his hearing test yesterday but he was being pretty fussy during it so they said we should just get him rechecked in a week or so. Otherwise he’s perfectly happy and healthy!

    Wife and I are definitely getting rest when we can. Ben loves tricking us by having incredibly stinky, loud farts, but scentless ninja poops. Definitely got a sense of humor.

    Here are a couple more shots of Ben Merlin to tide you guys over.

    This is Ben’s "Bebob" (my father-in-law) photobombing us.
