What a wonderful day it has been! To have our whole little family together at last was perfect. Ford, unfortunately, did not feel the same way! He was very unsure of Luke when he came home from school, and then acted totally disinterested in him after his nap this afternoon. I think he's taking the tactic of "If I ignore him, he'll go away." I guess he'll realize after a couple of days that this little guy is here to stay!
Here are a few pictures of the day - Luke has slept ALL day long, so he hasn't been the most cooperative model! I'm wondering what kind of night we're going to have!
He looked a little small in his car seat...
So we tucked 3 blankets around him! Look how big his feet are compared to the rest of him! They go with the long arms and legs!
Ford meets his brother for the first time...
And decides he'd prefer to be an only child!
Hmmm...maybe I'll just touch him with my toes. (Although it looks like he was trying to kick him, he was actually being quite gentle with his little feet.)
The proud daddy with his new son
This picture is for Jennie - notice what he has on! Luke wet through his outfit and the blanket after we got home (I think the diaper was too big) so Joseph took him upstairs to change him. This was the outfit he picked! It always makes me smile to see what he puts Ford in - whenever he would dress him when he was little, he'd always put him in the same thing - one of Parker's old t-shirts and a pair of little bitty sweatpants! He said he wanted him to be comfortable. Well, Jennie, being an amazing aunt, sent Luke 4 newborn outfits once we realized we didn't have anything that would fit him. There was a buy 2, get 1 free sale, so this "Handsome" number was the "get one free". Cute, but definitely the third choice. Not for Joseph! I guess he wanted everyone to know just how "Handsome" his son is!

Enjoy the transition. My only tip - that I got from Jennie, of course: if you have somewhere to be tomorrow, start getting ready for it NOW. You can never start gettng ready too early with two liitle ones.
Get some rest in between loving those boys!
He's beautiful and I am so thankful he is finally home!
Ford just doesn't quite realize what kind of gift his mama and daddy have given him yet! :) I hope by today he's coming around! I'm betting your glad he has "school" to go to! I think I'll sign Sawyer up today! Ford & Luke are two PRECIOUS Boys! What lucky kiddos to have their sweet mama and daddy! Glad y'all are all home!
