P.M., that is. The time that you came into the world 7 years ago.

You and Mommy had a long labor, sixteen hours to be exact, which makes sense being that you were my biggest baby to date. An obedient child from the start, you arrived just in time for dinner, slept soundly, nursed on a schedule from day 1, and slept happily in your bassinet. I called you my "textbook" baby. Since then you've given us seven years of joy, kept true to your nature as a big, strong boy, are a natural at every sport you have tried, and are a perfect role-model older brother. We love you.

Happy Birthday Jacob!!!!!!

  6. Thanks Nikki. I was exhausted, which is why I was thankful he was such a good sleeper. I also cherish that comfy, quiet hospital room I had for a night. Sometimes I wish I could go back there...
