My favorite part

 We took a bath and got all cleaned up for our special visitors.
 I was so excited for the boys to come and meet their new brother. 
They walked in and it was love at first sight. They were so excited to get their turn to hold him. And they were very excited to see Mommy and Daddy too. 
Mason showed off his biggest brother skills first. It was neat to watch each one meet him in their own way for the first time. They were so sweet and fun while we waited for him to grow and finally get here. They loved to talk to him in my belly. They would introduce themself "Hi Maxton it's me your brother Mason or Mattix." It was neat to see him react to the sounds and noise of his brothers. He seemed to know them already.
 Mattix is such a nurturing and sweet boy. He loves his brother too.
 Manning felt like such a big boy. And beamed everytime we called him the "big brother."

 I loved having my boys all there. They hung out and played, watched TV and ate the snacks that we had stashed away just for them.



While killing time before we had Maxton we had walked around the hospital's gift shop. We found this awesome book. Mighty Max. While the boys were there that day, the nurse came in and needed to check me, so Matt took the boys for a walk and they came back with a present for their new brother. 
I am happy to report that the love for our baby brother hasn't gone away. Not one of the boys has wanted to give him back or give him away. They each take turns holding him and love to help get diapers and whatever else he might need. I love this age. They love their baby brother. And he loves them. I know people say this all the time when they have a new baby, but Maxton was meant to be in our family. He fits so perfectly.
