Bebe Jake

Today Jake Martin is 1 week old, but it feels like he has always been here. Sydney, Ethan & Reid are so in love with their new baby brother. Reid relishes his role as "big brother," and the joy of his day is being asked to help me with diaper changes. Jeff's mom is with us for the week, which has been really helpful as I recover from the surgery and take care of Jake. Here are some snapshots from our week at home.

Jeff had all 4 kids on him after dinner tonight!

Reid looks so huge next to Jake!
