baby jedidiah

well...i completed my to-do list since the last post! we had a healthy baby boy on april 11th at 8:43 pm.  Jedidiah John Hornacek weighed 8lbs 8oz and was 21 1/2 inches long. he is 3 weeks old today! time has flown and i feel like i haven't gotten much done besides staring at my new baby boy. 


i haven't had to make one meal since he was born! i have an amazing family and awesome friends! the food just keeps coming! 


here are some things i want to remember, and then we'll get to the pictures...


-when jedidiah arrived into the world, i said "we KNEW you were a boy!" however...he didn't look like what i pictured. i was expecting dark skin and dark hair. 


-labor & delivery was much much better than what i thought it would be.


-dj literally does not hear one thing i say when he's looking at jedidiah.


-my mom took complete care of me and the house while she was here. if i have a girl someday, i hope i am able to do the same for her!


-we made our first trip to the grocery store yesterday.


-the dust buster handheld vacuum is our new best friend. i turn it on and it takes 3-5 seconds for jedi to calm down. it's a miracle. 


-the baby loves jason mraz and colbie caillat 


-he is a night owl. our regular bedtime is around 2 or 3am.  


-bentley love love loves jed! he calls him baby diah.  we made our first trip to their house last week and bentley could hardly contain himself. 


There are lots more things that I could say, but we'll get to the pictures!

 welcome to the world, jed!

 he's mine!!

 am i old enough to have a baby?

 i walked out of the bathroom and caught dj staring at him. it was the cutest thing ever!

 almost ready to leave the hospital!

 my sparkly nails.

 he does this face all the time!

 i will never forget this moment! snuggling with jed.

 sometimes i like to back up and look at how small he is.

 britney came over and cleaned for me. it was such a blessing!

 dj has been crashing on the couch almost every evening, and he likes to have the baby with him.
