I do want to take the time to tell more about our day Wednesday, but for now, I am going to just show you some more pictures of this cutie!
This is Christian Jacob, he was born Monday, October 19th at 11:54 pm. He is Zachariah's baby brother! They have the same mom. He is just precious! He doesn't look as small in these photos, but he is tiny! Zachariah weighed about 6 1/2 lbs when he was born, and I am guessing Christian is about the same. I don't have a birth weight on him right now. He is smaller than any of my babies ever were. He feels so light in our arms. He is a really good baby.....only fusses when he is hungry, or when he wants you to hold him...(which is most of the time, but we cover that pretty well b/c all 5 of us are always wanting to hold him!). I had forgotten just how soft and sweet smelling a newborn was. Oh, he is so precious!!
I am so glad to be able to have Zachariah's brother with us. He just fits right in with our family perfect. Zachariah loves to come up and pat his head and give him some kisses. He has shown some jealousy, but mainly when he is really tired. He seems to really like him.
This is his first photo, when he arrived at our home
Zachariah meeting his baby brother for the first time
These photos weren't staged, this is just what he was doing when he was holding him. Noah is so excited to have another baby brother. 
You ought to get an internet award for the BEST pictures! What precious pictures that capture the heart of your family. I love them. :) Can't wait to hear all about Christian....Love you friend and I am so proud of you. :)
ReplyDeleteThis baby is adorable! Oh it makes me want another one already and my baby is only 8 months. I am so glad that Christan is in your family with his brother and that the court went okay this week. I've been thinking about all that you do this week, there was a little girl in Gage's kindergarten class that just left her foster family after 3 years, and that foster mom was having such a hard timeI just wanted to cry and hug her. I think you are amazing for bringing these children into your home. I hope someday we can do it too. You are great!
ReplyDeleteSo tiny and beautiful! Your pictures are divine!
