John and Em pluse one!!

I have decided to utilize this wonderful blog (that I created months ago and never actually updated) to keep everyone informed about our newest family member! As most of you heard, either by text, email or phone, our baby boy arrived on Wednesday, November 26 at 8:59 P.M.. He weighed in at 8 lb. 12 oz. and 20 1/2 in. long! I checked into the hospital on Wednesday morning, labored for about 12 hours, pushed for 12 minutes and then he came in all his glory! John and I can't even begin to explain how powerful and life-changing of an experience this has all been. We never knew that we could feel so much love for someone until we met our son. What a blessing he is to us!

Thank you so much to all of you who have supported and celebrated with us through this journey. We can't wait for you all to share in all of the fun times that are surely to come. Your thoughts and prayers were definitely felt, and we couldn't have done it without you.

I am attaching some of the pictures that we have taken thus far. I already know that their will be MANY more to come, so keep checking back for updates!
