This is Abel Manning Keene before he decided to come out and visit!
He was born on September 4, 2012 at 4:04a.m.
He wasn't supposed to be born until later that day, but he decided he couldn't wait another minute!
The sonogram technician predicted he would be a 'whopper'...weighing 8 lbs or more.
He weighted 7 lbs. He is 19" long.
We've waited for what seems forever to meet this little fella.
Now he's here, and we can't stop kissing and loving on him!
 |
| This is Abel the day he was born! A little hat to keep his head warm. A little blanket to keep his body warm. Little socks on his hands to keep him from scratching his eyes and face! |
 |
| "Yikes! Who is this crazy woman talking silly to me???!!!" Mimi had to talk baby talk to him and get him used to her voice! |
 |
| "Okay...she talks funny but she gives me lots of hugs and kisses. It's ok." |
 |
| It didn't take long for Abel to discover big brother Greyson's secret to happiness...a pacifier! |
 |
| First visit to the pediatrician...sorry Mom and Dad, I'm pooped! I'm taking a nap! |
 |
| Right now I mostly want to sleep. Better let Mommy and Daddy and Greyson get used to me before I really start raising a ruckus! |
 |
| Big brother Greyson is so proud of his baby brother! He has heard about Abel for half of his life, and now he can finally see him, touch him, hear him, hold him, smell him...well, you get the picture! I could not be more happy or proud than I am when I see these two baby boys. Looking forward to wonderful days ahead with them! |
