Baby Bracken Pictures

So here are the pictures, finally!

This is what Brooke calls Baby Bracken's "angry eyes."


Such a sweet little guy.

Brooke calls him 'the toad.' Here he's demonstrating.








Cute little family!
Had to get some pictures of Jehan too.
He was learning to use a straw.


This is his frustrated face. He opens his mouth and shakes his whole body. It's really quite cute.

Showing us how to multitask.
I can't believe how big Jehan is and how small he used to be. Little Bracken is so tiny!
You can't really tell from this picture but Jehan is grinning like he's got a new toy. He was quite interested in Little Bracken and got so excited when he cried. He would touch him gently at first but then we had to take him away 'cuz Jehan couldn't contain his excitement and can't comprehend 'gentle' yet.

Jehan found his nose, and that fingers fit in it perfectly.


Jehan started crawling forward last Friday, Feb 13. I just realized that was Friday the 13th. He has also started learning words. The first was 'light' and he now also knows 'Ally' and 'Dada.' When you say a word to him he stares at you with this blank expression like he is just so amazed, and then grins like he thinks you're the coolest thing on the planet. Makes my heart happy. Something that makes my heart sad is that poor little Jehan is teething (his top front right came through today, the left is almost there), and he has a really bad cold, and we took him to the doctor today and he has an ear infection. Everything is just hitting him at once. Poor little boy is taking it like a trooper and hopefully will be better soon!!!

you richardson girls have such cute babies! Brooke's baby makes yours seem huge huh!? I can't believe how much older he looks than Kallie even though she is older than him! I wish mine would learn to suck out of a straw...He'll probably be a smarty pants like his mom (and it seems like his dad too).

Cuteness!!! I'm glad you posted pics of Jehan and Bracken! I cannot believe how big Jehan is~I really didn't think he was that long, but I guess when compared to a newborn he is :-)

HAHA, I don't think Jehan was ever that small, Heather.

He looks like he is SO much fun! And smart - boy are you in trouble. Ear infections are no fun. Lachlan had one too with a really bad cold. It makes us mommies sad. :( I hope he feels better soon. Great pics, by the way.
