Jake’s Here

Admiring our new precious AdditionDSC_0819_edited-1
And he thought he’d never get a boy…now he has 2!!!DSC_0822_edited-1
Gracen and Jackson meeting Jake for the first time.  They did great!  We had a few other visitors at the time they arrived, and Gracen was a bit overwhelmed.  She shied away from his at the beginning, but Jackson was not bothered by the crowd!DSC_0833
Jackson wanted to see, touch and hold the “baby”.DSC_0838_edited-2
Gracen’s still acting a little shy.DSC_0841_edited-1
What’s under here?DSC_0847_edited-1

Gracen, instantly, rocked him, talked to him, and shushed him if he made a sound.  She was so precious with “the new baby”.DSC_0871_edited-1
I believe Jackson was saying, “My turn! My turn!”DSC_0876

She opened his blanket to check him out.  Then she tried to swaddle him.  I was so impressed!  She did a really great job!DSC_0893_edited-2

Mimi and JakeDSC_0922
Jeffrey and Brylie struck up a new bond during this visit!  Brylie would do something and say, “Watch Jeffrey!”  or “sit Jeffrey” and pat the ground beside her.  They had a lot of fun!DSC_0929_edited-1

Coming home with our newest treasure!DSC_0977_edited-1
The kids were actually in be when we got home, but they heard us and couldn’t wait to see the “new baby”.  I love Gracen’s Halloween pajamas!!  The best part is she’s wearing Rudolph house shoes!DSC_0980
Jackson was very concerned that Jake got his passy any time he made a sound!DSC_0981_edited-1
Gracen was very happy to see her Mama…the feeling was mutual!DSC_0984_edited-1
