From Last Week

What does Porter get to wear when he pees through 10 outfits in 1 day? Baby's First Christmas. It was the middle of January, so we weren't even a month off.

My sis and I took some 'model pix of Porter' (see below). Everything 'Baby Brother' does Lincoln wants to do too. So ... he took a turn in the spotlight. (I just realized he is wearing his Santa jammies too. Lincoln likes to say, "Hey Mom, guess what?!? CHRISTMAS!!!")

Our Van's model.

For the Aunts

Snow Day!

Porter is 2 weeks old now. I sure think he is super cute. (The above 2 pix were taken mere hours ago for Jen and Jennette's delight)!

Porter Leonard Rice

He is here! Our sweet baby boy weighed in at 7 lb 8 oz. He is 20.5 inches long. He made his debut at 6:54 pm on January 5th. We finally decided on a name. Porter (because we like the name) and Leonard (after Tyler's grandpa who is the sweetest man alive).

(the above picture is one that only a mother would love ... but I wanted to post one of him right after he was born)

Here are a few more fun facts:

Porter was born on our 4th anniversary.

He was born at the birthing center in Meridian, and I have very positive things to say about the experience.

Although Lincoln has been hanging out with grandparents since 'Baby Brother's' arrival, when he did see him he was a really good Big Brother. He just kept saying, "He's cute! He's cute!" and copying what Porter would do.
