More Reid Pictures :)

I'm finding it hard to put this baby down! I just want to hold him all the time and soak in his smell and newborn snuggliness.  I'm really trying to savor every moment with him since this is our last baby.  He really is such a sweet, good baby so far!  We're still working on getting nighttime sleep down, but other than that he's been really easy so far.  He has started going back to sleep at night after I feed him and lay him back down in the crib, but he's been waking up again after about an hour or so.  Although last night he did sleep for a two-hour stretch at one point!  Phil sleeps at the beginning of the night, and then gets up around 4 or 5 to let me sleep for a little bit.  I'm really hoping we can get Reid to sleep in bigger chunks at night before Phil goes back to work next week.  Here are a few more pictures of Reid...


He has such long, skinny feet and toes.  He curls them up all the time like this.  The doctor said they were probably curled up like that in my belly and that they'll straighten out over time.  They're so cute!


Jackson just loves him.  He always comments on how cute Reid is and how little his fingers and toes are.  


Here's J with his "my-noculars" searching for animals to rescue (just like Diego)...


And here's a quick shot of Emmett... always on the move!


Oh, those baby feet!!  I'm obsessed...


Poor Phil... he went to Australia when Jackson was about 15 months old and bought this little hat for him.  Unfortunately, he way underestimated the size of Jackson's head and the hat did not even come close to fitting.  We forgot about it when Emmett was born and by the time we remembered it didn't fit Emmett, either.  Phil remembered the hat just the other day, right after we came home with Reid and was excited to try it on him... sure it would fit this time.  It doesn't!!  It's still too small!  We had a good little laugh over it.  


And lastly, here's a way overdue picture of Jackson with his "mailbox" that he made at school to collect his valentines.   And my pain pills in the other hand.  :)

Reid is such a beautiful baby! I'm so glad he is so easy going - I think watching his brothers keeps him entertained! Love you all and miss you like crazy!! Thanks for the new photos!
