10 pounds 0 ounces
24 inches tall
He is a very content little boy~

Caitlin meeting Andrew for the first time.

Guela and my Mom are here to visit and help. This is the first time Guela held Andrew and Caitlin was there to check everything out. She loves her "little brother" and is always asking to hold him too. Mommy and Andrew relaxing and bonding~ Eyes wide open! Checking out his new surroundings :)
He currently has grey/blue eyes, blond/red hair, his Daddy's hands, feet and ears.
He has his Mommy's lips, nose and chin.
The Proud Daddy - a quote from Daddy "Big boys catch BIG fish!" Getting ready for the car ride home today~

As I mentioned above, my Mom and Guela are here to welcome the newest member of the family and help us out~ Here is my Mom with Andrew.

He is a very big boy, with a big appetite and is so content.

This is the first time Caitlin held Andrew. She loves her little brother and is doing a great job with him. You can really see the love she has for this little baby boy!

We came home earlier today and are getting settled into our grove. We are so thankful for my Mom who was here to help at the hospital and the house. We are also so thankful to Guela who stayed home with Caitlin and has taken such great care of us all!
We will try to get updates posted again soon.
It is hard to believe that Andrew is already over one day old!
We are so blessed to have this little boy in our lives and am so very thankful to everyone for your prayers, calls, texts, emails and love!
