Jacob - Month 1

Jacob is already one month old!  It's hard to believe that 4 weeks have passed since little guy joined our family.  Jacob has been a great baby.  He eats well & sleeps well.  Although he is generally content most of the time, he isn't afraid to let those powerful lungs belt out a few when he does want something.  Jacob is a bit of a fireball, lol.  When he wants something, he wants it now!  Luckily for us, that usually only involves food.

At Jacob's 1 month check up...  He weighed 10 lbs 8 oz & 23 inches long!  He grew SO much SO fast!  He's on the 90th percentile for height even though he didn't get Mommy's long legs either.  Also, tiny grins and smiles have been popping up lately!  My sweet little Jacob...

Jacob even celebrated his 1st holiday, Thanksgiving.  For many of our family, it was the 1st time meeting the little guy.  Jacob slept pretty much the entire day while being passed around.

Happy 1 Month,  Jacob Ryan!

Dylan or Jacob???

My Morning Boys

Dylan & Jacob are always so happy in the morning.  I am not a morning person at all & usually need a dose of coffee to be fully functional. It's a lot easier to be a morning person when you have these two boys to wake up to.

Fall Fun

Dylan playing outside with a bunch of his "Cars" cars, ha ha.

Handsome little man.

Sleepy Jacob.

Sleeping again.  He does a lot of that.

Dylan or Jacob?

Dylan & Jacob look so much alike, it's crazy.  Now there are subtle differences obviously because they are two different kids but I was so surprised at how similar they do look.  There are moments when I look at Jacob and totally see Dylan, lol.  So I thought I would post a couple pictures so that everyone could see what I'm talking about.  These pictures are of them at the same age.

At 1 week old....

So you tell me.... do they look alike or am I just losing it, ha ha?

Our Two Boys

Dylan & Jacob.  Dylan loves his little brother.  He has been nothing but sweet to him.  He always wants to help with Jacob & is constantly curious about what his little brother is doing.

Dylan playing outside & enjoying the sunshine.  Jeff stayed home with us for our first week home.  Dylan quite enjoyed having Daddy home that week and was sad to see him have to go back to work.

Liitle Jacob at 2 weeks old.  He is such a sweet baby!  He reminds me very much of Dylan.  Not only in appearence but also in his very mellow attitude.  We are so blessed to have two very sweet boys!

Welcome Jacob Ryan

Welcome to the world Jacob Ryan!  Jacob arrived on Wednesday, October 27th at 6:32 a.m.  He weighed 7 pounds 9 ounces and was 19 inches long.  He was so sweet from the start.  After a few short cries, he laid on Mommy's belly and checked out the world with wide eyes.

Thanks to everyone for all the well wishes & more pictures will be up very soon!
