Precious precious precious …Billy and Janae,
Welcome to this amazing journey called parenthood!
May the good Lord bless you and your daughter,
And give you all you need:-)
Oh, congratulations Janae and Billy! You look so happy. And Brooke is one of the cutest newborns I’ve seen!
Best wishes to you all from your Icelandic reader ;)
It took my computer FOREVER to load your site just because of how much attention it’s gotten (clearly!) Just wanted to say congratulations to you and Billy!!!
OMG how long was the labor? You look amazing! I promise I won’t hate you if you tell me what the secret is :)
Congrats to you and Billy on an absolutely beautiful baby!
Congratulations to both of you. I tried to see if you had her last night and the website was down. Probably because of too many people doing the same thing I was doing. LOL. Brooke is absolutely beautiful. I love that name. Thanks for sharing this wonderful moment in your life with all of us!!! Take care.
Awww, a huge congratulations to you! Enjoy every second with your new little one (and as a mom of two girls, I can tell you, little girls are just the best!).
Yay…congrats!!!! Janae, you seriously don’t look like you just went through labor. Must be all that running (or candy)…you are my hero! And what a beautiful name for a beautiful baby!
Congratulations!!! She is beautiful and you are an inspiration. You are the mellowest and most level headed first time mama ever, and this about-to-be-second-time mama plans to take a page from your playbook this time around! You are a breath of fresh air in the blog world, and sure to be an incredible mom.
Enjoy these first days with beautiful new family. I hope you can feel the love coming out you from all over the world! xoxo
Ahhh! I can’t believe you have a baby!!! She is beautiful!! I hope it all went smoothly. How crazy that you gave birth sooooooooooooo soon after arriving in Cali! I am so, so happy for you. Can’t wait to hear about motherhood. I still have three weeks to go (unless he comes early). Take care and bless you and your beautiful family!!!
Congrats! She is absolutely beautiful! :) Enjoy every second with that sweet little girl, they are just the greatest gift on the planet! (I may be biased since I have two little girls myself)
ok, so here’s the millionth comment…just kidding. wow, it’s like all of us have gone through this entire pregnancy with you and now she’s finally here. congratulations to you both. brooke is adorable. i would say and now come’s the big life changes but from your blog it appears you two will transition to this easily as your nieces and nephews have you both knowing what to expect.
AHHHH what a beautiful head full of hair! I’m so excited, happy, and proud of you! Brooke is so beautiful and I bet in a year she will be craving some FROYO! lol Congrats to you and Billy! :)
Congrats to you both! She’s gorgeous! And I love her name! I can’t believe you were so impeccable with the timing – way to go! I can’t believe how relaxed you seem with all the madness recently – hope my first pregnancy will be that easy.
Oh Janae, she is perfect! Beautiful just like her Mama! And you look wonderful! Congratulations to you and Billy. That’s one lucky little girl you just brought into the world! :)
Oh, she is a beaut. Congratulations on the newest addition to your family. Enjoy her as much as you can because let me tell you, they grow up too fast. :o)
Oh my goodness!!!!! Congratulations!!!!
What a beautiful name. What a beautiful little girl.
You look more put together after giving birth than I do on a regular day! You look great!
I wish you and Billy a lifetime of happiness with your bundle of joy.
Congrats!!! I get on my computer this morning and miss all the action! She is beautiful and you look crazy gorgeous in all of those pictures!! I hope to look that good someday giving birth! xoxoxoxoxo!
Congratulations, Jacobs family! She’s totally beautiful, she’s very considerate (arriving pretty much immediately after you met up in CA), and she looks ready for the world. Added one more rock star to the family :)
Congratulations!!! I LOVE the name you both chose! Your daughter is so incredibly lucky to have such inspirational and loving parents! Your family is just glowing :D I cannot wait to see more pictures! You and Billy are going to be such fun parents!
