Look alikes.
It is crazy how much Jack looks like Will! At times I find myself calling Jack, "Lil' Will." This poor kiddo is never going to know his real name, he went from "the new boy" to being his big brother's look alike!

Just keep swimming.
Jack is one week old today. We are adjusting to life with four kids. Mike and I were talking last night and decided this has been one of the loooongest weeks. Things are going alright, but man, we are tired. Four kids, with four different sets of needs including a newborn who only wants mom, and is only content when eating or sleeping and an almost 3-year-old who keeps us on our toes!
But, we are grateful. The stress of pregnancy is behind us. Jack is here, and healthy. We know things will get easier. The older two kids have been awesome, and incredibly helpful. Mike is off for another week and we develop more of a routine with each passing day.
A few pictures from our week....
Thanks for checking on us, more to come soon!

The New Boy.
Meet Jack.
Jackson Xavier was born just after midnight on May 1st. A healthy 7 pounds 5 ounces, 20.5 inches long.
Labor and delivery was quick, and didn't follow the pattern of my other three. My water broke at home, and I had him three hours later. Jack likes to keep us on our toes.
The older kids are in love with their little brother and fight over who gets to hold him.
/
We are adjusting to life at home with four kids. Charlotte, "the tornado," seems to be taking advantage of this, as she is using every opportunity to get into trouble while we are busy with the new little man.
However, life is good. We are happy to have the final piece of family our here.
More to come in the crazy days ahead.
