Here He Is!

Ace Van Cellars Jackman! Born on April 7th @ 3:35 am. And we finally have a "little" baby boy, 7lbs. 9oz. and 19 1/2 inches. It was a very smooth and enjoyable labor. Almost makes us want to have another (but not quite). You might be wondering about the middle name. It was going to be "Vaughn" but then Rick said that he liked "Van" too. Then we found out that his Grandpa Jackman's middle name was "Van Cellars". He actually picked it out for himself since he didn't have a middle name. It's Dutch and both Rick and I have Dutch ancestry and all of our boys have "Jackman" family middle names so it worked out perfectly!

He is way too cute-they all are!! I can't wait to see you again. California weather might do you some good. And about moving back-the High Desert welcomes you!!

Natalie Garces said...

Of course I am!!! I'm trying to use my pass as much as possible.

Blume Bunch said...

hi!! hope you guys are doing great up there with little ace! I have a quick question. I have someone down here talking me into this "juice" i cant think of the name of it. But i was thinking that you guys had started with something like that up in utah and i was wondering if it was the same stuff? some berry / juice that has all the fruits and veggies you need?

anyways, if you did try this "pyramid" thing out how did it work and is the juice all its cracked up to be?! trying to figure out whether we should go for it or not?

if you could let me know when you find a second or 2 that would be a huge help :)
