What an exciting week it has been for our family! Since I was 39 weeks pregnant on Monday and the baby was large and hadn't come on its own yet we induced on Tuesday March 26 and surprise of all surprises we had a baby boy at 1:29 pm.
Brady Christopher measured 9 lbs and was 20 1/4 inches long. He had a big head and shoulders and some fat rolls. He was very content inside my nice warm womb, but we were so glad to meet him. He doesn't seem to big and chunky, but he is a solid rock when you hold him.
Later that afternoon Grandma, Uncle Alwyne, Uncle Marqus, Miss Sherry, and big sisters Piper and Campbell came up to the hospital to meet Brady.
It took the girls awhile to get over the shock and newness of the hospital, but they are so sweet with Brady and so into him now. They like to give him kisses, rock the swing, find his passy (which he's not too interested in yet), give him his teddy bear, and let him hold their fingers. It's really cute how they check on him.
Piper's first time holding her little brother. (and she's not as upset about a little brother as we thought she's be, she really wanted another sister, but we can tell that she's going to mother him)
Campbell's first time holdind Brady, she likes him - I promise - she just doesn't slow down much, she's such an active almost 2 year old.
Brady in the McCarter family going home from the hospital outfit, it fit him better than it did Piper and he was a whole pound bigger than her.
Our three little monkeys!
