Here he is...

This is the latest picture of our newest addition. Most of you have probably read Ben's story about his eventful arrival, and soon I hope to write about the day from my perspective. I haven't read Ben's yet, because I want to see how different our days really were. We were apart for most of the day except when they actually performed the C-section. So, anyway be looking for the rest of the story soon.

I just wanted to post a new pic of Thomas, and give a quick update about how it has been since we arrived at home. First I must say that it is GREAT to be home! I was so glad to come home to our little girl, and to the familiar. Thomas has been a really good baby, and so far he is sleeping well and eating well; Praise the Lord! It is hard to remember how to take care of them when they are so tiny.

It's also funny how big Lydia seems to us now that we have this little guy in our home. She has been great with her baby brother. I'm not sure she really knows that he is staying indefinitely, but so far she has done really well adjusting to the changes. Grandmother and Grandaddy are still here, so she is getting plenty of attention!

I will try to get some pictures of the two kiddos together and post them soon. I'm not sure that Lydi will be still enough to actually get a picture of them together, but we'll try. Thank you to all of those that have been praying and were praying for us regarding Thomas' arrival. Please keep praying for all of the details that have to be dealt with after his birth. Ben still has to register him so we can get his birth certificate and social security number. Our neighbor came over today to help us with this, because it's all in espanol.

I have a doctor's appointment tom., and Thomas goes to the doctor on Wed. for his newborn check-up. Pray that all goes well and that we both get a good report!!! More to come soon...
