We get to keep him!

So Daddy and Mommy are really loving having little baby Johnny in our lives.  Cannot picture life without him even if its only been a week.

He has definite preferences and a personality.
He loves "frogging" his legs up and curling his chin to his chest like he was in the womb and just sitting on your chest or in your hands.  He can do that for hours at a time even when he is awake.
He HATES having his arms pinned by anything.  If we swaddle him with his arms in the swaddle, he fights it.  He loves having his legs swaddled in that froggy style though.
Not a fan of diaper changes.  Once the dirty diaper is off the lip quiver cry begins.  Then when you go to put the clean one on, he gets his feet hooked in the crotch and pushes off to move himself a good couple inches.  It makes Mommy and Daddy giggle every time even if he is protesting loudly. Because of the scooting he has super soaked both Mommy and Daddy at least once each. 
When he wants his pacifier, he REALLY wants it and will hold it in place with his little hand.  IF he doesn't want it, out it goes and forget trying to put it back. 
He loves to snuggle.  Loves loves loves.  Especially on the boppy pillow after eating.  He loves to just sit there on his side and snore.  If I wake him, he just puts a hand in his mouth or at his mouth, looks at me in protest, and goes back to sleep.  He loves the crook of Daddy's arm, sleeping on your chest, sitting on your lap, anything that is a snuggle. 
He has a very studious look about him.  Like he is trying to figure us out.  He also gets a worried look on his face, straight from Mommy's side.
He still gets the hiccups, a common occurrence when was in the womb.  He gets a blank look in his eyes the first couple hics, then he starts to kind of get amused by it.  But if it goes too long, the worried face comes out.
