Our New Life

Wow!! We now are a family of six. Isn't that crazy. It's hard to believe that we have made it to this point in our lives, but here we are. We have been having a good time having Jacob home. The kids are enjoying him as well. Ben is very good to help and loves to talk to him as he gets his diaper changed (Jacob hates diaper changes). He also loves to hold him and he's very cute about it. Charlie likes him, but isn't obsessed. He will hold him and has started picking up on Ben's lead with talking to him when he starts crying. Brigit is really funny. She LOVES Jacob...sometimes a little too much. :) She loves to be around him and can get a little smothering, but it's fun to watch as well.

Jacob seems to be adapting pretty well over all. We have had to get used to some sleepless nights, but he does seem to be getting better. He isn't that great of an eater. I'm hoping that will change, but we'll see what happens. He is so skinny and long, I guess I'm just hoping he gets more proportionate sooner rather than later. He has chicken legs. Here's a picture of them so you'll believe me. He's in a size 1 diaper (we ran out of newborn and now that his cord is gone...).



Here are some pictures of the kids as well as some others of just Jacob.

That is so fun that the kids are obsessed with him. Well, probably a little nerve racking at times too! Small ones never remember that they need to be gentle with a new baby! Hope everything keeps getting better day by day!

Ain't no need to watch where I'm going, just need to know where I've been.
