HAPPY BIRTHDAY JADE!

Wow, I cannot believe it has been 1 year since Jade was born....sigh. There were many long nights, crying tirades, hazmat blowouts, an endless messy house, blueberry stained carpet, spotted ties, twinkle twinkle little star ringing in my head all day, a few more grey hairs, and moments that made my heart stop. Yet....there's that quiet moment when I lock eyes with Jade and her little fingers reach up to touch my face in a gesture that is ever so grateful she is here, so am I. So am I!
With that we look forward to next year...continuing blowouts in the middle of grocery shopping, tantrums that will make your ears ring, teething bite marks, food laced furniture, molars pushing throughout the night, and many more grey hairs. Jade are you ready for a baby sister...because this is too much fun! WE LOVE YOU!!

My First Photo Shoot!

So my agent (daddy) called the photographer (mommy) to come and take some pictures of me in our studio (backyard)for a new showing in this awesome gallery (living room). I also needed to update my comp card as well because I looked so juvenile in my other photos.
Well, the photographer took some great photos! My agent edited the photos are now showing in our gallery. I am soooo lucky to have some awesome peeps around me! Vogue keeps calling but I am most proud to be featured in our gallery. If you would like a copy of the photos, contact my agent! Love you all - Jade

I need a vacation!

Wow, its been 5 weeks in this cold cold wintery world! I am dying for a hot bubbly and feel like I am finally able to enjoy one...ahhhh! Can't wait to get in with mommy, who by the way, just turned 8.5 years old. Mommy is great, she runs in to get me 2 AM in the morning when I am dying for a pre-breakfast. And Daddy, he rushes home to take me while mommy gets her wiggles out. I have the best parents!

Ode to Mothers...

It has been two and half weeks now and baby Jade is growing! Yes, Jade Jorgensen Tsosie...we finally decided that she is a Jade.
I have to say that there has been a lot of attention on the baby, in the meantime, mom is still healing and not to mention all the sleepless nights. Last night she had her first 8 hour sleep and helped me understand the sacrifices. So, this is for all the mothers out there...thank you! Jamie is a wonderful mother! There is nothing more beautiful to watch your wife with your child. We are very blessed!
Here is the latest photo our baby Jade, enjoy.

Home Sweet Home

We are home! After a morning of signing papers (felt like signing mortgage documents) we were discharged. As we were leaving, we had a photographer drop and took some pictures that are viewable via their website. She took the photos for free but obviously they would like people to purchase prints, but please dont as we will have some available in the near future. But if you would like to see more photos of our baby, please visit:

Jade or Shea??

Good morning. Just another little peak at our baby. So, the main question of the day is the name. If we had to chose today, it would be between Jade or Shea. We are still open to any suggestions and if you would help us, let us know what name you like. Love you all...

A New Day... Today we welcomed our first precious baby girl at 5:13 AM, weighing 7 lbs 14 oz at 21.5 inches long. Our fashion model has arrived!! It was early morning on Jan 25 at 3:33 AM when Jamie was wakening by a wrenching contraction. This was the beginning as the contractions continued. We were able to sleep briefly when another huge contraction hit Jamie at 4:44 AM. The 3:33, 4:44 was a sign that today was the day the baby will be arriving! The day continued with steady contractions about 20 minutes apart. In the afternoon, the contractions shorted to about 5-10 minutes apart. We were instructed to come into the hospital and make sure everything was progressing like it should. We arrived at IHC around 6:30 PM and checked into the labor and delivery. The first review was that we were still a 1+ dialation with a shining light that Jamie was thinned out about 90%. The decision was to go home with a shot of morphine or wait 2 more hours...obviously we did not want to leave. We paced the hospital grounds for a couple of hours which did the trick. We had dialated from 1+ to 3+ within this time frame which we were officially admitted and in active labor by 9 PM. Risa arrived shortly after to help support Jamie in the process. By 10 PM we had the epidural administered and Jamie was feeling much more comfortable. By 12 AM we were settled and it became a waiting game. 3 AM came and Jamie was fully dialated and ready for the pushing! 2 hours pushing, spreading, huffing and puffing...we saw the first signs of the baby's head dropping. Shortly before 5 AM the doctor arrived and the baby was ready to pass through the canal. A few more pushes and the baby's head passed through the canal. At 5:13 AM, our precious girl was born. There is nothing like having a child! Nothing like knowing a baby has taken her first breath, her first cry, and her first contact with mom! It was absolutely beautiful. We thank everyone who has been a part of our lives and look forward to sharing our joy! Thank you.
