This post is long overdue.  We have been so busy with our new baby, and all the other things that come along in life, that I haven't taken the time to update. Thank you for to all of you that were praying for us. Benjamin was born on December 21.  You know that I had asked the Lord to allow us to have him without a Cesearean.  That prayer wasn't answered.  I had a midwife that took care of me here. However, after 6 days of labor, we decided to transfer. I am not sure why he wouldnt drop down.  But upon being check on the OR table, I was still at 8cm dialation and he was so high, they couldnt feel him. 

The important thing is that Benjamin and I are doing great. I have to trust the Lord in all things. I was so happy that they said my uterus looked fine, and we would be able to have at least one more baby.  The Lord is so good.  My mom has been staying with us and was such a help during the last few weeks before he was born, and up until now. 

Everytime I look at this little miracle I am truly amazed at Gods goodness and his mercy and grace.  Oh at gifts he bestows upon his children! Thank you Lord!

This is at the hospital before comming home.  Daddy and the kids bought this sweet outfit and brought it to us for him to wear home.

Here he is in Mama made goodies. He was ready to nurse!

He is a nursing machine! There is almost always a smile on his face.  He is such a joy to  have in our family. The children just adore him and spend so much time loving him.  He certainly has been a balm to our hearts.
