Table for four, please

The transition from three of us to four has really been quite smooth. Gema is a dream baby (aside from a couple mother-daughter-almost-all-nighters) and Jacob has been such a sweetie adjusting to being a big brother. I'm healing really well and itching to get back exercising and running once more. Jay is back at school and working hard to get his thesis done by year's end. Already it's been 12 days since our littlest peanut was born and we've been loving every minute of it!
First family photo. Needless to say, Jacob wasn't too interested in sitting still.

Samesies! Jacob loves to hold Gema and never misses an opportunity to do so.
My mom and little sis came out and helped when Gema was born and boy did they help out or what! We would have died of starvation if it wasn't for my mom's good home cooking and I would have gone stir-crazy if she hadn't been there to take care of Jacob for the first few days. Thank you so much Momma!
Our little porker. Born at 6 lbs 9 oz and discharged at 6 lbs 3 oz, she weighed in at 6 lbs 13 oz at 10 days old.
