Baby Jakob!


I have a brother!

Name: Jakob Donovan Gibson.

Born on the 28th January 2008.

4.78kgs (10.6 lbs), at 1.55pm.

He's 5 days old in this picture.

Apparently I 'froze' when I saw him, then burst into excited peels of laughter! According to Mum, I'm smitten... He's sooo cool! He moves! Not like my babies... Jakob hardly cries, but when he does, I seem to hear him before Mum does. She calls me her 'baby monitor'!

The funniest thing about Jakob though (Dad reckons), is that he farts alot! Dad reckons he's like a balloon ready to take off! Mum, (who'd usually be embarrassed by this) doesn't care a bit! She doesn't need to burp him - it's just his way of getting rid of wind. Apparently some babies are just like that...

I'm not precious about the time Mum and Dad take out for Jakob and having learnt how to be 'gentle', I get heaps of holds! When he gets up in the morning, I've learnt to sit on the comfy chair near his basinet, with a pillow across my knees - and I get to hold him, kiss him, pat him, stroke him, wingle his fingers and name all his body parts (well, almost all!). All up, he's sooo cool! For more about him, check out HIS BLOG! Click here...
