Prettiest Grandma Ever?
Jack is the cutest baby ever!
Great Grandfather Devilbiss
Not only is Clark a fine father-in-law he's a good friend to me. A friendship that developed over a good 30 years now. I think that Jack is one of the rewards deserving of such a good man. I'm so happy that Chelsea and Beau brought Jack to all of us. I think the look on Clark's face says that too.

One of my most favorite people in the world, Pat is a truly a special person. I met her before I even met Laura. She is one of the most positive and friendly people I know. She has always been there for my children and always interested in what they were doing. I couldn't ask for a finer mother-in-law.
Great Grandfather Berenger
My dad was always a very proud grandparent to my two boys. Throughout the years my boys were small they always loved seeing my dad. And he likewise loved to see them. I could always count on and trust my boys with my parents. Laura and I both worked at night so having my parents near was a huge help to us. Jack is here with me and Laura as I type this. Both Beau and Chelsea are working right now. We are happily doing our grand parenting duty, or should I say our grand parenting pleasure!

Although my Mom's health isn't the best these days her spirits are so high. She really is an inspiration to me. And I must say that baby Jack has really made her life complete. Love you Mom.

In Good Hands
My 1st Grandson
Jack 5 days old
Another thing is that I never used a flash on him. Every picture I have taken of Jack is with natural light. I just didn't want to hurt his tiny little developing eyes.

The Waiting Game
This is my son Beau on the night Jack will be born. His wife Chelsea was in her room in labor waiting as well. My wife, son Ian and me brought Beau to the hospital cafeteria to have dinner. When I look at this picture I can remember the night I was waiting for my 1st son to be born. Nervous anticipation. I can see it on Beau's face as well. Both my wife and Beau's wife had a long labor.
Well it became apparent that Jack would not arrive for at least a few hours. My wife Laura stayed at the hospital and waited till Jack was born. It was expected Jack would be born sometime in the very early morning hours. My son Ian and I decided to wait it out at home in the comfort of our own beds.
Jack was born around 1:00am on April 18th. I received a call from Laura shortly after that. Everything was good! Jack was born healthy and weighed in at 8 pounds. He measured 19 1/2 inches long. The waiting game was now over. The life of Jack Alan Berenger had just begun...

Chelsea & Beau
The title of the blog is Jack Alan Berenger. It's only fitting that we start at the beginning with Chelsea and Beau. My son Beau married Chelsea. Here is both of them at the beach during our maternity photo session. I wanted to capture a few last images of them together before Jack. Well now that I look at the picture again this really isn't before Jack. I now see three people in this picture. Chelsea is due anytime to have the baby when I shot this.
So this is the beginning of the Jack Alan Berenger blog. It takes two people in love to bring such a beautiful child into the world. Not only will Jack have his two loving parents but he also has two sets of loving grand parents. But that's not all. Jack also has two sets of loving GREAT grand parents!
Jack is my 1st grandchild. I'm proud to be a grandparent. My wife and I love this baby so much. I plan to document in pictures, here on this blog, Jack's 1st year. I want to share the progress with all of our family members. Anyone else who is interested is welcome as well. This is the beginning. The beginning of the life of Jack Alan Berenger.
