Welcome baby Collin!

Okay, okay, I know...how have I not had like 5 minutes to add pictures since Thursday. I don't really know either, but all I can say is that the last few days have been amazing. Collin James was born at 1:30am on Thursday morning. He weighed 7lbs and 1oz.

He has quickly become a part of the family & taking care of him is now our favorite thing to do! We absolutely love it! Even last night when we were up for like to billionth time we just looked at each other and laughed and talked about how amazing he is.

Her are a few of the pictures that we have taken over the past few days - longer post later.

Baby Collin in his going home from the hospital outfit - what an angel!

Beau welcomes his little brother home on Friday afternoon.




Praises: Great birth experience - a little tough at the end, but he finally made it! Healthy baby Collin & mommy! God's blessings - I can't imagine why he would trust Son & I with a little angel like Collin, but we are doing our best to be the parent's that He wants us to be.
Prayer Requests: Godly wisdom in being good parents & making decisions. Good test results for Collin's jaundice test this afternoon & his hearing follow-up testing on the 27th.
