There he is! Absolutely adorable, if you ask me. Jackson showed up at 11:20pm on August 1st, much thanks to Jessica being such a trooper! Once she was at about 10cm we let her rest for about an hour before we had her start pushing, which was around 10:40. She pushed so well, she only had to do about 40 minutes of pushing. He is 6 lbs 14 oz and 19 inches long. Baby and Mommy are doing just fine. Jes hasn’t had any sleep as of yet, but she should be able to get some rest here shortly.
So far Jackson has been a really good baby and only seems to cry when he gets hungry or when we do a wardrobe change for photos. He is pretty content just being in our arms and sleeps well on his own. We are so lucky to have such a beautiful, happy and healthy baby!
We really appreciate all the calls, text messages, emails and visits! It has been pretty overwhelming to hear from so many of you.
Hope you enjoy the photos and do stop by the hospital if you can. We will be here all day in room 205. We will be going home on Friday morning and plan on spending the weekend at home enjoying Jackson. You are all welcome to stop by at home too!
Love to all and again, thanks for everything!
Jer and Jes

Wow guys! He is already a good looking kid! (Must have got that from his mom!) Heidi and I are so happy for you! Hopefully I’ll get to meet the little guy in a week! Congratulations!
