2 weeks old

Bradley is already 2 weeks old.  He is a great baby so far.  He is my best nurser which has been a blessing.  He nurses every 3 hours usually and I know I'm spoiled because Caleb nursed every 2 hours at this point.  Occasionally  he'll do 4 or 5 hour stretches at night!  He was 7 lbs 1 oz at birth but has gained over a pound.  At his 2 week check up he weighed 8 lbs 3 oz. 

We are enjoying the newborn stage so much!  He makes the cutest faces and noises.  :)


Julia loves holding Bradley
 

 

Caleb wasn't very interested in Bradley at the hospital.  But when we got home, he has been really sweet to his brother.  He will often walk up to Bradley and say, "Hi.  Hi.  Hi" over and over again.  :)  He loves giving him kisses, too. This was the first time Caleb held Bradley.
 

And on his own, he kissed Bradley!  So sweet!

 
Julia likes putting her headbands on Grandma, me, and Caleb...  :)
 

As you can imagine, we're a little sleep deprived!  This picture was not posed.  He actually fell asleep like this.
 

Our very first outing with the kids.  I needed to get a gift for Ethan's birthday at the mall, so Ethan took the older kids to the playground at the mall while I took the baby with me shopping.

Tummy time
 

Love this picture!
 

So tiny...
 

I love his little stretches on the changing table...  :)
 

I took this picture today.  I love how his cheeks are getting so full.

Beautiful pictures. So very glad he is a good nurser for you! And 3 hrs during day and even doing 4 to 5 hrs at night! Wow. My girls did that early, but not my boys. At least Elijah isn't a 1 hr guy like Joshua liked to be. :-). Anyway, glad Bradley's doing so well. It's always a relief when they eat well!

Such a cutie! He looks so healthy and sweet. You're motivating me to get caught up on my own blogging. :)
