More Pictures...

In his car seat for his 1st car ride - going home

Tara's parents (pops and mimi), jack and me

I really like this one of Tara holding him

He is looking up at her good here

Here he is: JACKSON WESLEY ROSS

We are back from the hospital and finally getting a chance to post some pictures. We are doing great but VERY sleep deprived!!! (Last night we slept a total of about an hour) He was born at 4:14pm on the 21st, weighed 8 lbs, 3oz, was 21 inches long. Tara will post the whole story later, I just wanted to post some pictures (this is Johnny by the way). So, here's the pictures...

Like I said this is johnny posting and I forgot to rotate this one - here he is being weighed

Tara and I before the big event...

... and after

Tara seeing him for the 1st time

39 weeks

i am now 39 weeks!! jack could come any day now. actually as of right now i am scheduled to be induced on tuesday the 21st, but i have an appointment with my doctor on monday to talk it over. we had an appointment on friday, but with a different doctor because mine was out of town. i am still only 1 cm dilated so if i don't move along naturally they will induce me. so we'll see!!

johnny and i went to a birthing class today. i didn't really want to go to it, but i am really glad we did. they covered everything and made me feel just a little bit better about delivering jack. just keep praying for us!!

i am still feeling really good. i cought a cold somehow even though i am staying home most of the time. johnny might have brought something back from the hospital even though he is really careful about washing his hands. i took some meds (which i did not want to do, but needed to get better for jack!).

39 weeks bare belly shot

we put up the drapes in jack's room. we actually stole the idea from our friend's kelly and andrew. they are hanging on bamboo.
we had to move the train picture because of the drapes
just because i have to put a picture of our buddy!! he's such a good dog!

37 weeks

i am officially full term!! jack could come any day now. i went to the doctor on friday and he said everything still looks good. i have really had a great and lucky pregnancy. i feel good (most of the time). i haven't felt very good today. we had a busy day yesterday so i think that i am just tired. i am just taking it easy today so that i can feel better tomorrow :)

jack weighs about 6.5 pounds and is about 19 inches long.

pete with his doggy mullet!!!

pete at the park...again!

happy 2nd birthday to pete!!

it was pete's 2nd birthday yesterday!

we had a great day with him!!

robby, andrea, and clara

our friends robby, andrea, and clara came down to see us and bring us some of the things that clara has outgrown already (which we really do appreciate a whole lot!!). she is so cute and she has such a great personality. i can't believe she is already 5 months old. it made us really excited about jack coming and getting to play with him.

clara really liked watching pete. maybe his eyes were weird to her!! pete did a great job with her (thank goodness). he was really interested in her and didn't get much sleep because he watched her every move.

we went to the park to get out of the house. it was fun. clara loves to be outside and in the fresh air. pete of course loved the park and throwing his frisbee.

beach and park

we went to dauphin island on wednesday because johnny had the day off. it was beautiful outside...perfect weather (finally)! we had a lot of fun watching pete run through the waves and chasing birds. we took him off of his leash for a few minutes just to see what he would do. he had so much fun and stayed right by us.

35 weeks and 5 days...i went to the doctor on wednesday also. i am 1 cm dialated and getting scared :)

johnny relaxing in our chairs
on the sandbar
our handsome dog!!
our tired dog!!

we went to the park on thursday because johnny got off early...we love 4th year!! oh and by the way johnny got AOA (which is a medical honor society) we are really excited!!! but the park was fun and pete got to run after his frisbee which is one of his most favorite things to do.

i thought this picture was cool because of my shadow

pete and his frisbee

after the park!!

pete knows to go and sit by the fan when we get home from the park...i think it is really funny!
