More baby pictures.

Here are some more pictures of luke and his first week here with us.

Our little gangster.

The apple of our eye.

Wow that is pretty (the blue camera).

With a clean bill of health, we could go home.

Getting ready to head out into the winter, about 28 degrees F.

Marjolein's first baby suit, 30 years later and still being used.

And this morning he needed a little TLC, which he obviously got.
 
And here is ben and his mini me.

This is luke's third bath ever! And he was enjoying it until....

He had to share the bath tub with Ben's man paws.

And this is weird bacause he usally loves it when I put my hands on him.

Like here, its like I am a baby whisperer.

Such cute little hands, they look a little bit like his dad's.

And here is Petra our midwife, she will be here to help us until friday and then another will be here until sunday.

Luke Reed Brown

Well her he is, Luke Reed Brown. He is 3030 gram (6.7 lbs.) and 48 cm (18.9 in.) long. The nurse said that its porbably good that he came now because he would have been a big kid had it lasted any longer. But he is health he got a 9 on the APGAR so that is good. The only thing that we are seeing is that he is tired and has a little touble drinking milk, they say that this is normal and that he will definatly grow out of it. He was doing so good in fact that they didn't even take him to neonatal. This was his first bath and he loved it!. And for all you neesayers out there he has hair...ha....thats right. It s not alot but he definatly has some super blond hair on his head.


And here is Marjolein and him.

And here we are together.
 and here is a link to a video of him at about 30 minutes old, I think he is a thinking baby.

Marjolein, Ben and Luke
