Jacob is born

Jacob Fisher Broadhead was born on April 2, 2009.
I went into the hospital around 9:30 and had him 11:56 am. It was very intense and very fast:)
This is a sweet little picture of Rod holding his feet.




This is minutes after he was born. It is crazy how swollen they are.

Rod was able to see Jacob take his first breath of life. He didn't get to see that with the other kids and it was really neat for him to see that.

It is amazing how humbled I felt holding a sweet angel straight from heaven.

Jen brought the boys down to the hospital and David and Zach didn't know what to think about the new addition. David didn't want to hold the baby and Zach couldn't stop talking about his baby brother. It was opposite of what I thought there reactions would be. I don't think David liked seeing me in a bed in a weird place more than the baby himself because once we were home he and Zach have been holding him and loving him like crazy.

We are a true family now.


Here is a pic of the next day before we brought him home.


This is Jacob 6 days old. A little more filled in and still as cute as can be.
