Jessa's second week

Jessa is almost two weeks old now. She's a pretty predictable baby - she sleeps a lot, eats a lots, and . . . (well, you know). ;)

Brigham loves "baby Jessa" and is excited to help give her binkies and stroke her hair. He's been pretty gentle so far. Knock on wood!

Here are some of cute pics of Jessa from this last week. Isn't she a beauty?

We're so lucky to have two AWESOME kiddos in our home!

Baby Jessa's here!

We're really excited to announce that we have a new addition to our family.

Baby Jessa Rose was born Wednesday night weighing in at 8 lbs 14 oz and being 21 inches long. She is a beauty and has tons of dark hair.

After three longs days, we were so relieved to have tonight come. Placement happened at LDS Family Services office and was a wonderful experience!
We're so grateful to Jessa's birth mother for her strength and determination. She is wonderful!

Welcome home, baby Jessa! We love you!
