Blake is finally here
Blake Estelle Jackson 8 lbs 9 oz (I know - wow!) 20 1/2 inches May 28th, 2009
Easy delivery, easy baby girl, (the only time I really have heard her really cry was when she was born) good breast feeder, good sleeper and lots of strawberry blond hair.
We really lucked out. We like her a lot. Almost as much as her Nana does. :)
So cute! I adore that hair. I always have brunettes at first but I love newborn blondies. She's a doll. A big doll. :o) I hope you're doing well and glad you didn't have anymore hemotomas.
She's beautiful Chels :) How the heck did you gain so little weight with such a big baby?! Lucky girl. Glad everything went well--now come visit so we can hold that little angel!
Everyone seems to have already said what I wanted to say, so I'll just say Congratulations! And also that I'm way jealous. I'm starting to get the baby bug I think, plus, she's a great breast-feeder? I'm so jealous! I think I'm already bringing you guys a meal this week (when are you going to Dallas?) but is there anything else you guys need? In a right away kind of way? Haha. Please let me know. I'm so happy for you guys, and I'm glad everything went well.
(2/10/2011) B, running out of the play room: "Mom, my car just flew through the tunnel off the ramp!!"
Me: "Cool, buddy!"
Running back to his room, paused and looked back and said in a serious voice: "It's because it has magic in it."
(11/11/2010) Bentley was watching me pick up toys in our backyard after a downpour so they could dry, shouted at me through the window: "Mom! Thanks for being such a great helper!!"
I was looking at some really cute outfits my sister bought for Blake.
B: "Did Jody get those outfits for Blake?"
Me: "Yeah, she did!"
B: "Oh. That was nice of her!"
B, noticing a cut I had on my toe: "Mom, how did you hurt your toe?"
Me: "On one of your toys, remember?"
B: "Oh, one of my freaking toys?"
Me, laughing: "Yeah, that's probably what I said at the time!"
(After finding B, who we thought was asleep for the night, on his bed with ALL the blankets he owns on it, with his diaper off, sitting next to a puddle of pee on the mattress:)
Me: "I'm not happy with you."
B: "I'm not happy with me, either."
(A conversation between B and his Nana while we were in Dallas. Not sure what they were debating over, but it is still funny.)
My mom: "Yes, it is."
B: "No, it's not."
My mom: "Yes, Bentley, it is."
B: "No it's not, you little liar!!"
Note to self: Don't call your son a little liar, even in jest.
