Jackson's a Skins fan!!

I know how much the Sherwood and Dady Families were really hoping and praying that Jax would be a fan of their beloved "Black and Gold". However, there are better plans for my son. He is a Skins fan!!! I know what you're thinking......sure he's young, easily influenced, wants to make his dad proud..... However, I had a long talk with him and told him to pick which ever team made him happy. I would be proud either way. He looked at me and said "Dad, I want you to dress me in my Skins outfit and let me watch their game. Then, I want you to change me and put me in my Steelers outfit and let me watch their game. I will let you know which team is my favorite after I have watched and cheered for both". I told him I was proud of him and I followed his wishes.

After watching both games he made it very clear which team was his favorite! Take a look for yourself.

Family and Friends, I would like to introduce you to...... Jackson Bryan Roof.  "Jax" joined our family on Thursday afternoon at 2:39.  He weighed in at 9 pounds 14 ounces and 21 and 1/4 inches long.  He has red hair. 

Katie did great!  We traveled to the hospital at 4:30am on Thursday morning.  They admitted her immediately.  She rested for several hours and after receiving the epidural, she took a few naps.  At 2pm the doctors informed us it was time to push.  After a short 39 minutes Jackson moved from womb to world.  It was beautiful.  God has done amazing things.

Katie and Jackson are doing wonderful.  Both are at home and resting well.  

We appreciate all of the well wishes and prayers.  We also want to thank all of you who came by, called, and sent flowers and gifts.  

Lastly, I'd like to say....... welcome to our family Jackson, we love you!
