Welcome to the newest member of the Jacobson family…little Joe who joined them just four weeks ago…he was three weeks old when I had the pleasure of meeting this adorable little guy! His big sister, Indy, has starred on the blog a few times in the past year and while she loves her little brother…she wasn’t as excited about the photos as her parents were. We did manage to grab a few family photos (with bribery…smarties, my secret weapon!) of all of them and even a couple of Indy, alone, before she left with her aunt (thank you, Jenny!!)…to go swimming. Little Joe was not so little, at least compared to my new granddaughter who is just a week younger (but was premature)…so holding this baby was a bit different, but nonetheless…so sweet and precious. Babies are truly gifts and miracles and to be cherished by all who are blessed with them…and I know this family is thrilled to welcome their new son and add to their already wonderful family! Joe started out asleep, but soon was awake, wide awake and for a while I wondered if we would get any sleeping photos…it took time and patience, but in the end, we were successful and he was REALLY out for the last part of our session. I love his sweet lips and those chubby cheeks…he was wonderful and I could have cuddled and cradled him for hours that day, but alas, I knew his parents had plans for the afternoon, so I had to say goodbye, but oh, what a wonderful morning I had with this sweet baby and his parents!!
Isn’t Indy even cuter than when she was last year! Such a beauty…and very sweet!
This is so sweet, new siblings, together and I love how Indy is cradling Joe’s head…and look at Joe…already sticking his tongue out at his sister!
Yes, Mom, it really did happen…that is what I imagine Joe is saying to his mom here…ahh, the stories he will have to tell her over a lifetime…such wonderful things are ahead for all of them!
Dad is truly in awe of his new son…so gentle and caring…a dad of two now, who I can see will have great times with both of his little ones…
Sleeping…ahhh, finally…just the sweetest thing!
Congratulations Jason and Katie, on your beautiful new son…what a lovely family you have and so many wonderful memories are ahead for all of you…enjoy each and every day to the fullest!!
Besides being an artist, he’s also a good sport and helped carry things, including LeeAnn’s coat…we told him he was Little Red Riding Hood…or maybe that would be “Grey Riding hood!”
LLOVE LOVE LOVE this photo…their expressions and they were having a good time!!
Someone didn’t guess very well on the circumference around Jess and Emma!!!
A lovely homemade fleece blanket for Emma…I am thinking her mom and dad might just use that on cold nights before she arrives!!
Isn’t the cake beautiful…and delicious as well! Almost too pretty to eat!!!
Jess is truly glowing…she looks fabulous and certainly “carries” pregnancy quite well!
Our other granddaughter, Jayden, sure enjoyed the shower and didn’t waste any time digging into her piece of cake.
Some lovely favors for the guests…to enjoy during a nice soaking bath on what was a rather cold winter day!
Jess with her generous hosts, Amy Weisbeck, Lorraine Patterson, Aunt Rainy and Jordan Weisbeck…with the guest of honor, Jess.
