It's A Boy!


Carter Brandon Reed was born Wednesday, May 14th at 4:32pm and has been such a wonderful addition to our family! He was 7 days early and still weighed in at 7 pounds 12 ounces...exactly the same as Jemma (who was one day LATE) and was 19 in. long. Half of his weight has got to
be in his cheeks! They're super kissable...your lips just sink into them! I love it!

Jemma has taken quite a liking to him and LOVES to hold him...but only for a couple of minutes and then she hollers "All Done!"





Jemma, monitoring Carter's first bath!



That's our boy! What a stud!

Big congrats to you & your family. You're amazing! (I'm serious- I can't get over the whole labor & delivery thing...)

Oh my goodness, Jenny! He and Jemma have the same kissable cheeks and button nose. He is so precious. I can't wait to meet your new little Carter. I just knew it was a boy--and happily I have two very cute outfits to send to you. Hopefully I'll get them in the mail soon, or he probably won't even fit into them. All our kids are so excited to have a new little cousin. I'm so jealous that Mom and Melanie get to come and see him brand new. I don't want to think about how old he will be when we see him. Keep those pictures coming, because they grow up sooo fast! Love you and congratulations! You have just a darling beautiful family.

Congratulations Jenny, he is adorable. And you look great, you DO NOT look like you just went through labor.

Congratulations! You have a beautiful family! Good pick on the name, Charlie and I have picked out Carter for one of our boys too (we have a ways before we get there though). Jemma is so cute and you look so beautiful! I'm sure Brandon likes that he's not out numbered any more...jk. Love you all!

Congrats! He is super cute. Those cheeks are incredibly kissable, but who would want it any other way? I wouldn't Crandall has super kissable cheeks too, they are the best. Hopefully your delivery went well and I am glad you everyone is healthy and happy. Congrats again!
