Meet Baby Jake

I've been meaning to post since the second I had him, but of course it doesnt work that way. Jake was born on Sept. 10tht @ 8:02am. Being that I had a C-section the recovery has been hard but Im feeling better every day. The hardest part is not being able to be with Tessa the way I'd like to be. She misses hanging out with mommy and knows that life has changed. Even though her life has been turned upside down over the last week or so shes been great and has begun to accept that Jake is here to stay. I'm almost back to myself, but thank God for pain medication because there are times throughout the day where my body aches in every place and without it I would be lost!

My mom has taken off for two weeks to help with Tess and I dont know what I would have done without her help. She's been great and Tessa just loves her Nana! Poor Nana is exhausted after a fully day with her and I know that shes in heaven when Tess goes down for a nap...the amount of energy that girl has should be bottled and patented because its insane! Her happiness equals her energy and its such a blessing every day to see her sweet smiles.

Here are some pictures of Jake. I'll post more when I have more time.
