The professional pictures taken in the hospital finally arrived! Here are some pictures taken of Colby when he was 1 day old! I am so happy we took advantage of this opportunity and now have some sweet pictures of him SO tiny! When comparing these pictures to Si's I am starting to think that Colby looks even more like Si than Lucas did.
We love to share our pictures and stories of raising a family of boys!

Rub a Dub Dub, Colby is in the Tub!
It has been a wonderful first week with our little Colb! He lost more than 10% of his birth weight, and he was down to 6lb 2oz on Saturday and he was diagnosed with minor jaundice. By Tuesday he was back to gaining weight and the jaundice was getting much better.
Mimi and Auntie Em have been our saving grace! My mom cooked most of the meals the first week, my sister kept Lucas entertained and held Colby, and just having them around helped my sanity.
Colby is sleeping great! He gets up every 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 hours at night, eats, burps, needs a diaper change, and drifts back to sleep. We sure hope it continues!
After Colby's umbilical cord fell off we gave him his first home bath! It was a group effort as you can see below! Lucas is especially excited to be a big helper!

6lb 15oz 19in
I am WAY too tired to post a lot of the details, but I wanted to get some pictures up to share with friends and family. We are so thankful that Colby has arrived and he is fitting beautifully into our family. Lucas is embracing the role of big brother and keeps asking if he can carry him upstairs so he can teach him to play basketball.
Delivery went smoother than we could have ever imagined. Mommy, Daddy, and baby were very well taken care of. Colby is eating really well and we will go in tomorrow to see if he has started to gain. He was 6lb 5oz when we left the hospital.
Many friends and family met him in the hospital, and we look forward to introducing him to everyone else soon. Auntie Em is here for another week to help and take care of mommy and baby, and Mimi is cooking, cleaning, shopping, and keeping us rested.

Last Minute Post before Baby J Arrives!
Here is a last minute post before our little guy arrives tomorrow! We have been busy, busy with Lucas, getting ready, wrapping up work/school, and spending time with family. My Dad arrived from SC on Friday, my sister arrived from MT yesterday, report cards are done, and now all we need is a little baby in our arms. I am trying not to think about getting cut WIDE open tomorrow, and just focusing on what he is going to look like, act like, and how he is going to add so much joy to our family.
We still have not completely settled on a name. We have a couple picks and we will wait until we meet him to make a final decision.
Nicole and my mom threw an amazing shower for us on February 7th. It was wonderful to get all the ladies together to celebrate our little guy, even though I was reluctant having a shower for baby number 2. Everyone was so generous and they made it so special!!!
Be looking for the update with pics and stats VERY soon!
