Hello!!
Yes, I know it's been a LONG time since I last blogged. It's been a busy last couple weeks.
Wednesday (the 15th) @ 3:21pm Jacob William made his entrance into the world!!! He is INCREDIBLY cute!! He weighed 8lbs 4oz & was 21 inches long. At first mom said she thought he might look like me, but now she thinks he looks more like Emmy & Elsie, oh well!! Mom & Jake came home Friday evening, but we had to use a special blanket with a light in it, because his bilirubin numbers (something in his blood) were climbing. Monday morning we had his blood tested again & his bilirubin numbers were still climbing, so he & mom checked back into the hospital. They stayed until Wednesday morning so he could be in a special bed. Wednesday morning his numbers were down dramatically to the normal level!! He is really content & quiet, ( unlike the last 4)!! It is awesome to have another boy in the house!! Today he was wearing overalls (probably spelled wrong) & it was REALLY cute!!! I don't understand how people can only want 2 or 3 kids!!
I'm sorry it took so long to blog. This past week we've been getting the farm ready for a Dairy picnic sponsored by the Waukesha County Holstein Breeders Association. The farm looked REALLY nice & clean!! Today there were about 100 people or so @ the farm. They brought lunch (awesome) and Mr Gehl (the owner talked about the farm & plant). Then there were door prizes. Everyone who entered won a prize & there were still a few gifts left over.
Well, I gotta go. I was trying to blog some pics of Jake, but it's not working right now, so maybe later.
God Bless!!
Ike

From the pictures I've seen on your sister's blogs, Jake is adorable!!! I absolutely ADORE little boys in overalls! It's really too bad that he had to go back to the hospital. Some friends of ours had to use a "bili-blanket" with one of their daughters, too. I'm so glad he's home with you guys now. :)
I cannot even imagine what life in a small family would be like...boring? lol If we only had 2 or 3 kids in my family, we'd have missed out on so much fun!!!
well, gtg...
