So I am finally to a point where I can actually do something besides hold Jack! It has been a crazy 3 weeks since he has been here...I can't believe it's been 3 weeks already. Being mom has been amazing, crazy, tiring, and a whole bunch of other things. I love him to death. I never knew that you could love something so much. The whole thing except for being pregnant the last month was a breeze. My labor went so smooth and really fast. I lucked out. I mean I went on a walk for a mile before I realized that I should get to the hospital, and 3 hours later, there he was in all his glory. He has grown an inch and a half, and gained about 2 pounds, he's a hungry boy! Anyway here are some new pics! We had a mini photo shoot, hahaha! Thanks to everyone for all of their help!

Our Little Jack has Arrived!!!
Aaron here... Laura is a little down and out right now because The countdown is over!! Thursday May 1st, 2008 at 1:01am our little boy Jack joined our family! He is so adorable! He was 6lbs, 12 ounces and 19in. long. It was such an amazing experience! Laura started contracting around 9pm Wednesday night, the doc called to see how she was feeling and she told him about the contractions, he said we should go to the hospital, but she wanted to make sure they were real so we went on a walk and then they started coming two minutes apart! We went down to the hospital and they said she was ready to go! We got to the hospital at 10pm, and three hours later our baby boy was born. He is soooo awesome, handsome, adorable, and all of those all at the same time! Laura is feeling pretty good, but just getting her rest. She did such an amazing job, and she was up and at em the next day walking around and feeling good. It was so sureal seeing Jack enter this world. They put him on Laura's stomach and he stopped crying and was wided eyed looking all around. He is so amazing and cute! It was such an awesome experience for me being able to hold him after the nurses did all there tests and warmed him up. Words can not describe the joy. I love just holding him and looking at his face... I stayed up all night with him the first night holding him and looking at him in awe while laura got her sleep. Here are some pics of Jack and Mom, and our little family. Thank you everyone for your love and support. Laura will jump on here after she feels rested and share more. Here is our baby boy, Jack Douglas Elder
