Jacob is here!

Jacob Harper arrived Saturday September 6, 2008 at 12:26pm. He weighed 7lbs. 1.2 oz. and was 20 1/2 inches in length. Justin, Jill and Jason all went to see Jacob and his parents at the hospital on the Sunday after he was born. The new Mommy and Daddy were doing great and so was baby Jacob. We got to visit with Mimi and Big Daddy too, Rebecca's parents, who drove in from Arkansas.

So far Rebecca believes that Jacob has his Daddy's chin, and lips, and nose (we agree). We were also told that Vince had no trouble with his first diaper changing, but he was still trying to master the art of swaddling.

Jason was so cute and excited and kept saying "Hi Baby!" We've tried to get him to say Jacob, but so far all we can manage sounds something like "Dub Dub." (Does this have anything to do with his always referring to Sponge Bob as "Bob Bob"?)

Congratulations Rebecca and Vince, you did a great job; Jacob is such a handsome boy!
