Peanut meets his newest cousin!...on March 17th

I just realized that I somehow never posted these pictures of Peanut's newest cousin!  Never mind that his newest cousin is now 8 weeks old...these pictures are worth the wait.  When we first met Baby L, he didn't have a name.  This was his fault because he showed up early, and his mom and dad thought they had more time. :)  The nurses started calling him "B.B." for Baby Boy, but he soon got a wonderful name of his very own.  We are pleased to have recently found out that he has taken to the nickname "Pickle." :)  Now we just need sweet little girl cousin in California to start going by a food nickname that starts with a "P"...Pomegranate? Parsnip?  Peach?  Pumpkin? All real possibilities...

So without further ado, meet Baby L...and check out his RED hair!  (Between P and his 2 cousins we have a platinum blonde, a red head, and a brunette.  Genetics are awesome.)

Snuggling with his dad.

Love his red hair and his dad's black hair. 

Stats.

Sweet, tiny hands.

Baby L does have an awesome mom, but I was respecting the fact that when we went to visit she had yet to have a shower since birthing this precious little boy. Just following the unwritten "Mom Law" here.

 

P meeting his newest cousin.

The "Blue-eyed Boys Club." :)  

P, Peanut's Pops, his Uncle Jim, his dad, and his cousin all have killer baby blues.

Still lovin' the hair...and the precious smooshed face.

Hangin' out with dad in the hospital room.

Being entertained by dad in the hospital room...who doesn't like being hoisted up by their armpits and thrown into the air?  (J often points out that if anyone was to do this to him, he would A) really not like it and B) be really upset at the person doing such a thing to him.  P has obviously not gotten the message yet that it's socially awkward for someone to do such a thing to you.)

And since this post is so belated...here's a picture of "Pickle" :) that his mom posted on FB yesterday (thanks for letting me steal it off your page without permission, Rebecca!) :o/  I can't wait until the next time we see this little guy in person so I can squeeze those cheeks!!!
