Baby Brudder - Ammon

STATS: 7lbs 4 oz, 21 inches long and cute as can be - beginning stages of male-pattern baldness and looks just like Jeff. :)
So excited to have him here - not so excited to be recovering from major surgery... a few cute moments already.

My sister Kristin has been here with her 3 girls - Aubrey (14), Elizabeth (11), Calla (9). My kids love these girls although I was really nervous for Abbey - she is a MOMMA's girl to no end. ONLY MOM can do anything for her. Turns out I can be replaced for a few days by Kristin, but not anyone else. :)

She brought the kids to the hospital the first day: Abbey "Hi mommy!, hi mom, hi mommy, hi!" 

Lucas walks right over to Ammon and pulls the little hat off and says "Does he have red hair like me?" As he was sitting on Jeff's lap with Ammon, he unwrapped to find his little toes and count them. He loves this baby more than I could have ever hoped for!

Boys night - Jeff took Lucas (since he was surrounded by girls all day and night) out on Friday night for a boys night. Trying to figure out what he might want to do, Jeff asked him:
What's your favorite thing to do Lucas?
Feed my baby brother. (Awwwwwww....... :))

The girls love Ammon too - Lea is fascinated by all the little things - "He opened his eyes all the way.....he did (insert whatever was done)......." and Abbey just keeps a close eye on him all the while not leaving my side since we walked in the door. She missed her momma and I missed them.
