What a Wonderful World!

New Cousin

Jackson's reign as the youngest great-grandchild in the Luker family was extremely short lived. My cousin Amy delivered Baby Jacob at 2:57 am on Wednesday, November 26th. Jacob (left) and Jackson (right) visited each other in the hospital. We can't wait for holidays with these two guys running around!

Parade of Visitors

Jackson is already so loved! We have heard from tons of friends and family members who are excited to meet our little man. Here are some pictures of his first visitors.

Aunt Mary Beth, Grandma Joyce (Mam Maw) and Grandpa Dave were at the hospital waiting for Jackson's arrival.

Great Grandpa Bob and Great Grandma Bev came to visit their 7th great-grandchild!

Aunt Melanie was coaching a basketball game at the University of Detroit the night he was born, but she came to see him as soon as he came home.

Grandpa Clem came to visit. We really miss Grandma Tina but she is looking down on us from heaven.

Jackson is here!

Jackson is finally here. He was born Monday Nov. 24th at 2:17pm. He was 7lbs 14oz and 21in long. We are enjoying our new baby boy!

At the hospital

We have arrived at Community North Hospital to be induced. Things are going well and we are getting things started. Check out the posh hospital room. Stay tuned...

No Longer Our Only "Child"

People are constantly asking us if we think our "dogger" will get along with the baby. We are a little biased but we think Lily is going to make a great big sister! She is getting ready to head to Puppy Playground to play with her friends while we go to the hospital. Little does she know that in just a few short days her lazy routine will be turned upside down!

Halloween costumes are easy when you have a built-in prop! Here is a shot of Mommy and Daddy-To-Be dressed as Juno and Bleeker at a Halloween-themed couples baby shower hosted by our friends the Furrys, Kenworthys and Oleckis.
