Nearly 13 hours of labor...1/2 back labor and a c-section later, here is our story in pictures! Jacob was so big that he would not move down into the birth canal...which led me to the c-section. We love Jacob so much and he is the light of our lives!! We chose the name Jacob Elias because we love the name Jake/Jacob and Elias was Jeff's father's middle name and his grandfather's name.
Jake was in the NICU for two days because of his low glucose levels. I was so sad. Amazingly he managed to fight through in a quick enough time that he was with us on the third day.
Jake is 12 days old as I write this. He is doing great! He had a great doctors checkup on Monday, and is gaining weight! It is amazing to see how much he has changed in just 12 short days! Life is good...tired, but good!



Congratulations Kel! We are so happy for all of you. Looking forward to meeting our newest cousin, xox!
