Baby Jackson

Well, I am FINALLY posting some baby pics. Newborn life is a whirlwind of exhaustion and joy. I honestly don't get much done besides taking care of little Jackson. So blogging hasn't been at the top of my list, but I do want this time recorded so it will just have to come in bits and pieces. Here is the first bit. Jackson Scott Farrell was born on September 22nd. He weighed 8lbs 5oz and was 20 1/2 inches long. I had a c-section this time around due to all the fun I had recovering from Brighton's delivery. There was a part of me that really just didn't want to have a c-section, but the recovery has been SO much easier and I feel like we made the right choice. He is six weeks old today, which is seriously crazy to me. Time is flying by! Having a newborn in the house has been a big adjustment for all of us. Bri has adjusted pretty well for the most part. She has been such a good little helper and is really sweet with him. She blesses him in every prayer she says and gives him lots of love. She is going to be a great big sister.

Jackson is such a precious little guy. He has his moments, but is generally pretty happy. His cry is the cutest and he makes the best little baby sounds. He loves to snuggle and is starting to smile, which is the greatest thing on earth. We are in love with this little guy and are so happy to have him in our family.

These pictures were taken by my friend Ally when he was 12 days old.
