There aren't enough words...

Jackson!

Surprise - we had our baby! Little Jackson Noah was born 3.17 at 4:04pm 7lb
1 oz 22 inches...
few fun facts over the last 4 weeks...

1) J went to doctors 6 times in first 11 days of life because of dropping weight!
2) we discovered the joy of wubbanubs (wubbanub.com) - jackson has the red dog
3) Labor was 23 hrs and 20 stitches (ahh!) but luckily he came out healthy and ready to party
4) For the first week - frank and I took photos every 5 minutes ha
5) Frank has been gone last week to Boston and is gone this week in Cleveland...I have a whole new respect for single moms! I can't wait for him to get home Sunday finally!!!
6) Jackson is already just growing...he's a whopping 7 1/2 lbs...(give him credit, he lost a lot---too much-- at first)
7) We now watch really dorky shows like wheel of fortune and price is right
8) If you have a baby Shannon and Carrie make you AMAZING meals so it's not a bad side affect
9) My mom is currently rocking Jackson and looks so happy :) aweee -- she's staying the night
10) It's amazing how fast you can shower when you are waiting for the baby to start screaming in their bouncy seat
11) Despite walking 4-5 miles a day I still don't dare try on my real pants yet
12) Still crazy to realize we are our own little family
13) Below is the most recent video I made for Frank while he's away... *since most people have seen the photos on facebook*

38 weeks and counting

It appears that I am reading to Baby Snoozer but in all actuality I am trying to coerce him to come out. Those special contraction progessor paddles are strategically positioned to induce labor. Ok so I'm reading to him but it'd be a lot cooler if he'd just come out already. We still have a 11 days until his due date but we are getting antsy. Hillary went to the doctor today and is still 1 cm along and 70-80% efaced.







How gorgeous and amazing is the pregnant lady in the above photo?!?!? :)












p.s. I had to post the picture of Guacamole on top after I had already posted the other two pictures. He threw a fit once he realized that Salsa made the blog and he did not. I told him if he wouldn't have been off training for astronaut school then he would have been around and I would have posted his picture too. Dogs are so demanding sometimes, babies will be easy!

34 weeks....6 to go....
