It's a BOY!!




Arriving 5 days after his due date, Jackson John Hilton made his appearance! He was born on Wednesday, November 24th at 7:20pm after a very intense but short labor. He is a big boy weighing 8lbs 8oz and is 20.5" long. He was born in the comfort of our home with only Jason and our wonderful midwife, Lisa and her daughter Amanda present. Everything went smoothly and I was so excited not to have to go to the ER for stitches this time. I owe a special thanks to Kim who came last minute to take Levi to her house while I was in labor. He had a wonderful time with her and Mike and was home in time for bed at 8:30. Levi came right up to Jackson, took his hand and shook it and said "nice to meet ya". He is very excited to be a big brother and loves to hold and kiss Jackson.
We were very surprised that we had a boy since the pregnancy was so different from Levi's but we are thrilled! My life will be crazy being outnumbered by my boys but I couldn't be happier. We are totally in love with our new son and so pleased that Levi will have a playmate.
We praise the LORD for this blessing and for answering our many prayers.
Sorry these first few pictures didn't turn out, we had the lights on low...
