He's Here!

A family photo (minus Grace, she was already in bed).

Proudly holding brother.

The big girls checking in on Joel.




Sorry I didn't update sooner, Josh brought me his laptop this a.m. so I can tell my blogger friends about our new baby.

Joel Robert was born Tuesday, June 9th at 7:40 p.m. He weighs 7 lbs, 0 oz. and is 20 inches long. He is doing well, and we plan to go home today. I will tell you my labor and delivery details soon (when I have the energy).

Congrats. He is adorable. I'm so excited for you. I can't wait to come over and hold that little peanut.

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Everybody already said everything I was going to say about how cute he is and how great you look so I'll just say may the Lord bless you with much sleep. : )

Congrats, Laura & Fam! Love the room and pictures of Joel. Great to hear your voice yesterday. Can't wait to meet the little guy. Rest well!

I'm glad you told us where Gracie was because that was Owen's first question when he saw the family picture "Where's Baby Gracie?". And I told him she's not the baby at their house anymore! Hope your transition to home is smooth sailing!

What a joy to read this and see the little sweetie! You look great, mama! I admit I got jealous reading the previous post since you didn't have the waiting and uncertainty I've always had because of the induction. Not that I'd change my methods - but it does sound dreamy to get everything in order and have a date set!!!
Praying for you in these crazy postpartum days. He's so beautiful, wish I could see him in person.
God bless your family of SEVEN!!!
