In his plastic box

He's a bit surly sometimes
I want to hold Baby Brother....I all done.
A natural mother
The big sister


This cute outfit from Grandma Olsen was too small already!

Heading home to the chaos...
He's thinkin' arbys, just like his father
Too young for the "Dead Chicken Strut", Grandpa found a new game to play with a 4 day old baby. (I really think that baby James liked it, very womb-ish.)

James and Cousin Kezia...She is 2 months older. I think I gave birth to a one month old!

Aunt Kristi caught him at an introspective moment.
Foo! Ya'll.
Other fun facts: Baby James has slept for 6 hours straight the last two nights...and so have I. He follows that with another three hours. Its been amazing. These acts of kindness to his parents have earned him the Meritorious Service Award, and a V for Valor.

He is known mostly as "baby brother"

Congrats on "baby brother". He is so cute and I'm sure the sisters are in love with him already.
Aren't boys just different? I can't explain it but they are. Different and awesome!

Congratulations! He is a cutie! I'm glad he's being a good little boy and sleeping for you. I hope he keeps it up. His big sisters sure look proud!
