On Monday March 10, 2003 I went into the hospital for a c-section to have Jenna Marie. Jaelynn was 17 months old at the time and she was ready to be the "big" sister. They rolled me into the operating room at 8:00. At 8:31 Dr. Tutt pulls JAKE MARSHALL out!!! Boy, were we SURPRISED! Jason had looked at me and said IT IS A BOY and he weighs 9LBS 5OZ!!! The assisting Dr. asked Dr. Tutt what he had told us the baby was -he laughed and said girl. So, imagine the surprise when Jason walked out to Jaelynn and said meet your BROTHER! Everyone screamed! :) We were thrilled to have a boy. But- let me tell you it took me a little bit to realize the fact we no longer had a little girl named Jenna. SO, many people came bearing GIRL gifts. They would come to the room and go back to the nurses station. They thought they had the wrong room. Hee hee! We had NOTHING for a boy. So, my mom returned ALL the gifts and brought us boy clothes. I don't think Jason would have liked him to wear pink. :)
Today we let him pick what he wanted to do. So, we went to Jumpin Jacks for Open Jump.
Some of our good friends came to play too! Then, we all went to McDonald's. Oh, what fun!
Jaelynn, Kate, Emmy, Taylor, Jake, and TessThen, tonight we had a family party with
my Mom and Dad, Uncle Brian, Tyler, Taylor, Paige, Uncle Trey, Aunt Jennifer, Maddie, Mollie, and Uncle Doug all came for the celebration.
Jake got a new baseball glove from us. I think he liked it. :)
Taylor, Jaelynn, Paige (Tyler's girlfriend), Jake, Tyler, and Jolie.
Here is a picture of all three kiddos on Jake's special day!
We have been very blessed by this sweet blue-eyed boy. Happy Birthday Jake!
And- I am very thankful you are who you are!
