Big Brother Jack

Jack is so excited for his little brother to join our family. He is constantly talking to my belly (asking the baby if he wants to be named Boogart or Jett), tickling me in hopes of making Jett laugh, and asking daily when Jett is coming out of my belly. One day I came home from a quick errand and he asked if I went to get Jett out. Another time he came into our room and handed me his little blue blanket (one that Bree gave me when I was pregnant with him and he has used since the day he was born) and told me he wants to give it to baby Jett.


The following are pictures he has drawn, both highlighting his soon-to-be baby brother...



From left to right...Jack, Rian, dad, Dakota, mom. I reminded him that he forgot someone so he quickly drew baby Jett in the only space he could find on the page. He laughed hysterically at his artwork because Jett was standing on daddy's head and his foot was in his eye!


This picture is a little harder to see, but from what he tells us it is baby Jett in a spaceship! He was so proud of this one that he enlisted Rian's help to tape it up above his bed.


Now I just have to hope that the enthusiastic welcoming continues once he realizes babies cry a whole lot and require most of mom's attention!

That is so cute. I think Jack is going to love having a brother! I really like the name Jett.
