Baby Jacob is here!

This is coming a few days late, but we are excited to announce that our sweet baby boy finally arrived! Jacob Elias Laidlaw was born Saturday, April 25th, 2009 at 8:02 pm, 3 days after his due date. He was a big baby at 9 pounds and 21 inches long! The delivery went great (and quickly!) and Jacob is in perfect health. He is so beautiful and he looks more like his big brother every day.

Thomas is so excited his little brother is here at last, and he always calls him "Baby Jacob" or "Baby Brother Jacob." He's always begging to hold Jacob and whenever Jacob makes little baby noises, Thomas asks us, "What's he saying?" Its so cute to watch him with Jacob. We love seeing how much he already loves his baby brother.


I'll be trying to post more photos and details about Jacob soon, as soon as I find the time! =)
