Andrew James Brooks was born on May 6, 2016 @ 7:59 am and weighed 7lb 8oz at 20 inches long!! It was instantly obvious that he was much quieter than his sister.
Since he was only 39 weeks he was covered in that fancy stuff... We weren't overly excited about that part... They don't even wash it off before they hand him to you. They have changed the policy to where mom actually gets to hold baby right after they do his initial check.
Once we got him checked out and everyone got back to the room, we were shocked at how quiet he was. He instantly caught on to breastfeeding and was eating and pooping like a champ.
He had lots of visitors in his first few hours and loved that he got to meet his big sister! She was instantly in love with him and protective. She didn't know why anyone else was holding "mommy's baby". She says he is mommy's baby that she got at the hospital.
