Brighton and Kherrington are two little peas in a pod. They cry hen the other one cries, sleep when the other one sleeps, and grunt when the other grunts. We are going to have so much fun as these babies grow up together!
This was the first time Brighton noticed there was another baby around. He wouldn't stop starring.
No matter what people said before my baby arrived, I did not understand the joys and difficulties I would face as a mom. I am constantly surprised by the amount of love Chris and I have for the little guy; but equally surprised at how hard it has been. I often wonder...Will I ever be able to sleep again? I am always worried about him, and want to just snuggle him all day long!
Madison and Tanner just love Brighton and always want to play with him. This is his first ride on a John Deer
Everydat Brighton has tummy time and plays in his Bumbo seat. He is so strong already!
This was Brighton's first bottle. He had no trouble taking it. Once he had two in one day. That night ha didn't want to eat regularly. I think he figured out the bottle is easier. 
He always loves bath time and smells so good afterwards
Brighton and I have been having tons of fun together the past week. We love to party all night long! I think there has been two good sleep nights, but that's alright, he's just so dang cute you can't get mad. Here are a few of our highlights from the week.
Luckily Brighton still has his crazy hair, I just love it!
This is how he snuggles. He would stay like this all day long if we let hime.
Gramma and Grandpa Albright came to visit and see their new great grandchild. 
Brighton had his first sponge bath this week. He didn't mind it too bad. We are still waiting for his umbilical cord to fall off so he can have a real bath.
This swing is from Aunt Karyn and Cousin Nicole. He likes it except for the fact that he is all by himself when in it. 
I'm pretty sure this is Brighton's long lost twin. 
I couldn't resist getting a picture of Brighton's space goggles. He had to wear these in the hospital when he was under the lights. 
Being a mom is wonderful. It is definitely very hard but every time I look at my buddy Brighton I know that it is all worth it. Chris always kisses him and says "I love you so much" that is just how we feel. The love came so fast and in such a large amount. We are so blessed to have Brighton in our lives!
So I am finally home and ready to make contact with the world. Brighton decided he had no more room left in mommy and came about two weeks early. Labor was long and I ended up needing a C-section. I guess my hip bones just weren't big enough. This was actually my first time in the hospital and definitely was an experience. Brighton's Jaundice score jumped on the last day we were there and he had to be put under the "lights". We also have been keeping him on lights while at home, but got him tested this morning and he is doing much better and is able to be off the lights tonight. It was so fun to have him come out with so much hair, we just love it! Grandpa Alan emailed a picture of Chris when he was a baby and they are just identical! My mom laughs when I hold this dark hair, olive skin little boy. He was extremely wiggly when he was in my stomach and this has not changed. He loves to be snuggled in up close. My mom and Chris' mom were both able to make it down for the delivery and it was so nice to have them here throughout the week. Being new parents we were clueless and needed lots of help. Also, since he was early the apartment wasn't ready and Chris and his mom took lots of time to clean and get it ready while my mom was with me in the hospital. Well, that's enough for now, I've got to go and snuggle my new little one!

Being pregnant definitely comes with its highs and lows. Some highs are knowing that soon I will have a little baby in my arms, the closeness it brings Chris and I, feeling him move inside and knowing he will be a little wiggle worm, picking out baby things, the excitement of others and so much more.
Another high is getting my very own parking space!
Baby Showers have been an absolute high, thanks to all those who have helped out!
But then of course some lows are pain when he moves, elephant feet, retaining water, back pain, wanting to diet and work out to get rid of this ridiculous weight, sleepless nights, and LABOR AHHHHH!
It will all be worth it in the end.
