2 weeks and starting to show his personality!

It's taken 2 weeks, but our little Braddock is starting to show some personality! And we love it! He is still just as sweet as can be. Eats like a champ. Smiles when he is talked to and tickled :) Yes, he is ticklish! He is starting to make noises, cute little grunts and growls (and not just when pooping 15x a day). He spends about 30 minutes, 3x a day awake and alert. Yep, that's it! Still sleeps a lot which mommy appreciates :)

Everyone is still completely mesmerized by him.  They run the minute they hear any noise from him. Lillie loves holding him, and she always turns her face into him and rubs her cheek on his.  Damon loves sticking his chin and tip of his nose in his mouth so he'll suck on it. Cherry will spend a good 45 minutes holding him while watching a tv show. She is an awesome big sis. Daddy is lovin' his sweet boy. I love watching James with our tinies. Showin him all about sports already :) hee hee. Me? Well I am completely in love with my baby boy.  Of course I am still sleeping with him in my arms! I mean, how long do I get to keep him so tiny? It's hard for me to put him down during the day, even when he's sleeping. I just love his little body next to me. But of course, I have 3 others and a home to take care of so I do :)

His 2 week stats
21 inches (up from 20.5)
8lbs 1oz(up from 7lbs 10oz)

(I was really going to take pics of all the kids together for his 2 weeks, but honestly I am dreading Lillie in a photo shoot. Ha ha haaa. So I haven't worked up enough courage yet! Soon, soon I will. And Daddy and baby too)

These 2 shots make me laugh. Maybe I will get a kid who LOVES having his picture taken! he totally smiled on the one when I did, and pouted on the more serious face! Without me prodding him too. :)

Braddock also got to meet his cousin who is 2 days older than him. Little Luke! It was so fun seeing them next to each other and both so tiny still!
