Brothers

It is so fun having two boys now and comparing them as babies. Elliott had very little hair and it was so light he looked bald while Trevor has lots of dark hair. 

Elliott was born via emergency c-section at 40 weeks. 
7 lbs. 8 oz. 21 3/4 inches long.
 Trevor was born via scheduled c-section at 39 weeks.
8 lbs. 1 oz. 21 inches long.

Elliott spent 3 weeks and 1 day in the hospital with pulmonary hypertension and we took him home the day after Thanksgiving. Trevor was born on the day after Thanksgiving and we took him home 3 days later perfectly healthy.

We had given away all our baby clothes to sisters-in-law who all had boys after Elliott and the clothes were used, saved and passed back to us. I was surprised we got so many outfits back that Elliott had worn.

The next pictures are not in the same outfits but the boys are both about a month old.

And here are the brothers today.
Fortunately, both our baby boys have been calm and peaceful babies. They both are happy and have been good sleepers and eaters. We are so extremely thankful for both our sons and the joy they add to our lives.

I love these pictures! And I love when you bring your little family to the library! I'm excited to see if Elliott decides that he likes reading to Trevor someday. Oh, and do you still have your cat? What does the cat think of Trevor?
