Welcome Jackson James Carver!!!

We are so excited to welcome a new Carver baby to the clan!!! My little Brother Brent & wife Janeen just had their first baby. A beautiful baby boy- Jackson James Carver.....aka Jacks, Jacks boy, JJ. My bro. is Brent James Carver and dad is Thomas James Carver so little Jackson is named after both. Ethan is also named after my dad Ethan Thomas and my sister named her son Carver James. I guess we like to keep the names in the family.....good names gotta use them.

Anyway we are so proud of Brent & Janeen. What a beautiful baby boy. We were so excited to meet him. We decided to spend Memorial weekend with them. Here are some of our pictures.

And here is the little star of the weekend.....


Here's me and my two as we first walk in the door after a long 4.5 hour drive, in the middle of the night. Nathan was able to squirm out of that pic, no one looks good after a long car drive in the middle of the night :) (take notice of Ethan's tough guy pose, trying to be cool) BUT the focus is little Jackson.

I always knew my bro would be a good daddy. It just comes naturally to him. I loved watching him with his son. It's so exciting to have all of our families grow and get bigger. It just seemed like the other day we were all kids and jumping on the trampoline or riding bikes.

Brent you do such a good job with little Jacks. He's so lucky that you are his father. Janeen don't even get me started on what a good mommy you are. What a lucky baby to have such a caring sweet mommy. Both of you are pros already and he's not even a month old.

SO SWEET :)


My brother the jokester

What a cute baby.

I love him, I love him, I love him

Me & Neen and are babies. They are 6 months apart. Janeen by the way there's NO WAY you just had a baby. What a woman, you look so so good. I wish I looked like that a WEEK after I had a baby. You can't even tell she just had a baby. You've got skills girl, tell me what you do. You look awesome!
What a beautiful family. We are so happy for y'all. We are so glad we live so close. We can't wait to come see Jackson again soon. Ethan keeps talking about "baby Jacks" he keeps saying he needs to see baby Jacks, he needs to play cars, he needs to play ball. He's just as in love as we are.

This is an exciting year for the Carver family. My brother Chris had a baby girl last November, little Mavery Lynn then we had Shelby Nicole in December......then in April sister Carrie had her twin girls Elsie Michelle & Ava Elizabeth ( Carrie has 4 kids now under 4 years old!!! GO CARRIE!!!!!! ) and then finally BRENT the first Carver boy to carry on the name Carver. Little Mr. Jackson James Carver. Way to go guys! We love him!!!
