HELLO ALL

As you all know, our beautiful new son, Jacob Ryan, has arrived! We feel so blessed to have him and are looking forward to our new adventure with him. Fortunately, our little one is on an eating schedule of every 3 hours and THANK GOODNESS for that. I would like to thank Fabi for all of her help and definitely my husband, Miguel. I truly don't think I could do it without them!!! Well, I am also really excited that my mom is helping me out this week and Miguel's mom will be staying with us for a month starting in May, which is going to be so nice. I am hoping I will be somewhat of a pro at this mommy thing by the time I go back to work!!! Ha, ha, ha.

Here are some pictures of Baby Jacob and I hope you like them! I will try to be on top of things and post pictures as much as I can. Thanks also to everyone that supported me in the hospital. Big thanks to Kristy, Kamryn, Kelly, Tatyana, and Natalie for coming by and visiting me.

Well, for now it is bye bye, but I shall return and keep everyone posted on Jacob news!!!

Love, The Almeidas

JACOB IS ALMOST HERE!

Well, it is about time for Jacob's arrival and we are SO VERY EXCITED!!! I would first like to thank my mom for planning my Austin baby shower and all of my friends that helped in putting together my Dallas shower last month. Big thanks to Fabi, Kamryn, Kristy, Michelle, Nikole, Natalie, and Tatyana. I really appreciate everything and it was really a lot of fun and so sweet of you:) We would also like to acknowledge Mig's sweet mom for making the long trip from Chicago to attend our shower. We had such a great time with our family and friends. I truly still have the picture in my head of all of the guys changing the diapers on the dolls blindfolded, too, and was quite impressed with the grand prize winner, Mig. I guess he is one-step closer to daddy-hood! Oh yeah, big thanks also to my sweet brother Jason who captured some great footage, too, as Mr. Camera Man on the special day...

Anyway, the newest news is that we might be having Jacob induced today or Monday! We are definitely excited and can't wait for his arrival. We know we are definitely going to have our work cut out for us, and Mig has already put together the baby carseat and Jacob's glider and ottoman which we will definitely be putting to use upon Jacob's "GRAND ARRIVAL".

Hmm. We will definitely keep you posted on further news. Oh yeah, above you will see the newest updated picture of me, 1 week from my due date at 39 weeks pregnant. I definitely look like I am ready to pop, so hopefully Jacob is ready, ready, ready to join us in a matter of days!
