1st Bath

Brady's first sponge bath! He seemed to like it. He will have a lot more fun when he can get his little belly button wet.

Snuggling

Daddy and Brady catching up on some ZZZZZ's. Briley still wearing her Burger King crown she has been wearing since the day Brady was born.

Brady doesn't quite measure up yet!!! I t won't be long though.

Sissy want to snuggle with Brady too. Enjoy this time where he will just lay next to you and not pull your hair. He looks so little next to her. Briley looks bigger everyday now.

Daddy giving Brady his first taste of eskimo kisses. These are Daddy's favorite days with the little ones.

Here we go for our first wheelchair ride. Riding out of this hospital and going to the car. Ready to see the world little guy.

Here he is all tuckered out too tired to see the world. Let's go home little man.

Day 2 at the Hospital

We spent the second day just hanging out at the hospital and visiting with family and friends. Mom and Dad were pretty sleep deprived because we were so excited and couldn't sleep. Briley came for a visit and wanted to watch her DVDs. She liked seeing Brady but it wasn't quite as fun as the first day. She still reveived some presents which was exciting.

Aunt Nicki and Trent came up for a visit.

Trent and Brady are about 7 months apart. Two cousins hanging out talking to each other.

1st Family Photo

Now our family is complete!

First time to hold Brady

Briley's very curious about this little guy. She wanted to know if he had any hair under that hat. She thought he was little and cute.

Here is the new Big Sister holding her new Little Brother. She loves holding him for a few minutes and then off to play with all of her new presents she was showered with for becoming a big sister. (I think she would be happy getting a new baby everyday if she could get all of the gifts.)

Briley Meets Brady!

Here is Briley coming in to see what kind of baby she has! It's a baby brother! She knew it all along and insisted on having a brother. Welcome little brother Brady!

Briley and Daddy on a mission to deliver the good news. Briley was so excited to be the one to tell the family she has a brother. Everyone was waiting with anticipation.

IT'S A BROTHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Briley was excited and really wanted to hold her brother. Arms out and ready to step in. She knows that she has an important job as a big sister.

Briley and Daddy get a close look at our sweet little Brady James. He was busy sucking on those fingers ready to eat.

It's a BOY!!!!

Brady James Baughman 7/20/2010

Daddy told mommy it was a boy. Mommy couldn't believe it!!! We were both so excited that we had a healthy baby boy. Here is Daddy holding his son for the first time.

Here is the first time that Mommy gets to see you and kiss you. I felt like I waited forever to hear you cry and see your sweet face.

Finally I get to hold my Brady James! Thank you Lord for this sweet baby boy! I knew Briley would be so excited to the news of a little brother!
