Our newest family member

Introducing the newest member of our family: Jace Richard Cook. He was born last Wed Sept 3rd at 12:31 p.m. He weighed 8 lbs 10 oz and was 21 inches long. He is such a sweet baby and we are really enjoying him.

Levi is adjusting pretty well. The first time he saw him I held Levi in one arm and Jace in the other. Levi said "baby", reached down and tried to bite Jace's foot. Since then he has done pretty well, he's very concerned if the baby is crying, likes playing with the baby's toys and only tries to hit him about 5-10 times a day.

For those of you who actually read this blog, I've been working on Jace's baby announcement and need your opinion on which layout I like better. I just can't decide. I've got Levi in bed and Rick has Jace but I'd better log off and get back to my family. Thanks to everyone who has helped us this past week with babysitting and meals. Especially my mom who has come the last 3 days to help me with the boys. Today was the first day on our own and Levi was sure missing Grandma's attention.

First of all, you STINK for looking that pretty so soon after you had a baby. I don't care if you DID have a c-section, that's just not fair.

And I LOVE the B&W shot of Jace. DANG he's cute.

I like the second announcement.

He is so cute! I really like both of the layouts, but the one with four pics would be my pick! More is better right?!?!

Ohh he is such a doll! (Maybe that's why Levi tried to bite him, he must think Jace is a toy). I love his little wrinkles but I like seeing the variety of pictures. I'm an indecisive person so you better go with other peoples opinions. Congrats on the new van as well!
