He was being monitored until 5 and not given anything to eat to get clear results from all the tests but at 5 amy went in to breastfeed and he caught on right away. That is a big relief, for me, I want Amy to really feel successful and she is doing great.
Abigail saw Elijah got a big grin and pointed at him and told me something. It was cute, she is going to be a great sister. We are having the most problem because of the lack of mommy at home. She just misses her so much. When we go to visit her, Abigail will just give her the longest tightest hugs. I think for her all she knows is that something is going on with mommy and she was crying more. It's hard on amy too.
We've been trying to figure out which side of the families he looks like. We kind of decided it was a little too soon to tell for us. What do you think?
Amy is stuck in the hospital until saturday afternoon, so that means daddy duty for me 24/7. Abigail will probably get the nice privaledge of standing in lots of lines as we renew all our paperwork. Also I'm trying to get someone to preach Sunday for me so that i can just be home with the family. so here are some pics. love you guys, and we are so happy/content/satisfied/joyful etc in our hearts to be where we are now. The Lord has sure allowed us to taste sorrow, but it makes this sweet times taste even sweeter.

Love and going to 



bed,

He sure is a handsome fella! You're right - he does look like a little boy! Please tell Amy we love her and we're proud of her too! This will be an extra bonding time for you and Abigail. Wish I could be there to help though.
Congrats guys. We're so glad that it went well and he is finally here! I was praying for you guys this morning and hoping all was going well. Thanks for the pictures too. It is a different experience now seeing pictures of a newborn after having one. Maybe I can appreciate the work to get there a bit better now. Anyways, we are soo happy for you, rest up when you can. We'll be praying for you FOUR :) !!!
Congratulations! How cute!! We wish we could be there and play with Abigail for you. We would run her around until she dropped into bed. :) At least the adults would. Give everyone kisses and hugs for us. Thanks for the pictures!!
WOW!!! How God is blessing our families. Congradulations guys. We love ya'll and are praying for you.
What a cutie!!! I guess they don't make blue bands?? For a minute I thought Elijah turned out to be an Elizabeth or something. Anyway, Good job Amy!!!! You look great and so does little Elijah. The nicu doesn't look that different actually. The isolette bed is very nice:) I'm glad everything is okay.... BOYS:) Gotta love them!
