HAPPY "10th" BIRTHDAY JAKE!!!Jake was born on November 19, 1998 @4:32 PM. He weighed 10 pounds and 21 1/2 inches long. He was such a good looking, big, healthy baby. The nurses in the hospital couldn't believe how big he was. He was a very good baby and slept alot (probably because he started out so big). His labor was induced. I was due on November 24th, Dr. Irion let me have him early so I could be home before the Thanksgiving Holiday. He was our only baby born at Cottonwood Hospital by Dr. Richard Irion(he predicted Jake would be 8 lbs. (boy was he wrong)). Some other names we considered were (Joshua, Zachary, Nicholas, Andrew and Eli.) When he came out 10 pounds I looked at Mike and said he is definately a JAKE!!! (For some reason I pictured in my head as a Jake to be a good, strong person.) He is left handed. He is a quiet, very sensitive kid. You really never know what he is thinking. He loves, loves to hang out with Mike. He is very smart. He is fearless...he loves to skateboard, hike, bike, unicycle, rollerblade, snowboard...basically anything outside. He is a good artist and loves to play the piano. He says when he grows up he wants to be a doctor. I love him so much. I am so glad I get to be his mom.
He has a major SWEET TOOTH!!!
