Mikey's First Few Minutes

While I wait for Mikey to get interested in eating (might be a bit), I thought that I would share some cute photos of the little dude's first few minutes.

7lbs, 8 oz, 21 inches


The whole family, what a cute guy!
Cute guy... even though all you can see is his stinkin' cute hat
Mikey and Grammy... he liked to to look at her a lot. I think he recognized her voice too, all those conversations on speaker phone paid off!
Literally counting his fingers... there are 10 and the nails are SHARP!
Brian and his "little buddy". I think Brian might like the little guy.
When Mikey was first born he was pretty quiet. No real cries just cooing.
Burrito baby! I dont think he looks like us, but this photo makes he look even less like us with his little swollen face.
He was pretty active as soon as he was born... less active than while he was inside, but still you have to hand it to the little guy- he likes to move.
not loving the light... not crying but not loving it a ton.
look at this cute guy!!!! Weight is rounded to the nearest ounce. Since Mikey was 7lbs 7.8oz his weight is rounded to 7lbs 8oz and he was born on July 8 or 7.8- Funny!

We LOVE him already. Caleb is always asking for Baby Mikey. The kids keep going to my computer to see more pictures of him. They are actually REALLY excited to have a cousin on that side of the family. Honestly, this is painful for me because I can't just drive to the hospital and snuggle him and give you hugs! Oh, I am EVEN MORE excited to see you in just a few weeks. We love you all!

He is REALLY a cute baby! And--sorry Mama and Papa, but I have to agree with Diana--I like his picture with Grandma the best.
