our first week at home!














Jack is already a week old! It has been an amazing week :) So far, everything is going great! When we left the hospital Jack's weight dropped to 7lbs 3oz. at his first doctors appointment he was 7lbs 6oz, so he is steadily gaining weight, he eats non-stop, so I wasn't too surprised by this news :) It has been so wonderful having Matt home! Since I can't do a whole lot we have mostly just watching 30 Rock :) Matt has been great with helping me around the house, changing diapers and playing with Riley. Riley has definitely been a little jealous. She mostly just seems mad at me, but she seems to like Jack! Today we had Jack's newborn photos done by our good friend Amanda, and this evening he had his first bath at home! Right before I started bathing him he decided to poop in the tub, he already likes making things exciting ;) My only complaint is that this week has gone by WAY too fast! I pray that the next 13 days go by VERY slowly!

Jack is here!









Jack was born on June 20th, 2011 at 5:06 pm after 17 hours of labor, less than 24 hours after Matt got off the plane in Portland! I want to post a detailed birth story, but right now my time is limited. All I can say right now is that Jack is the most beautiful, perfect, baby I have ever seen. I can't even begin to explain the love we have for him. Matt and I are so blessed with this beautiful baby boy!

new blog!

Since I'm starting a new chapter in life I've decided to start a new blog, so I will no longer update my old one. I also decided to do this so I don't overload facebook with constant updates of Jack and fill up everyones news feed. this way if you want to know what's going on with us and Jack you can just come here :) My due date is just a week away, so hopefully I will have some exciting updates soon!

Blessings,
Jessica
