Amy went into labor yesterday morning, and even the best efforts from the wonderful staff at the hospital couldn't convince Drew to wait any longer. He was born via c-section at 5:35pm, weighing 4lbs 15.7oz, and 17in long. We were all concerned about how he would do once he got here, but he's breathing great on his own and didn't even require a stay in the NICU. The doctors are hopeful that Drew will be able to go home in about 2 weeks, provided that he is eating well and no other complications arise.Amy was very brave, and did a great job these last couple of days. She's obviously tired, but is otherwise happy and healthy.
I know Eric and Amy really appreciate all of the prayers that were said on their behalf today. God is GREAT and has brought us a new, perfect, beautiful life into the family.
Happy Birthday, Drew!

What a blessing! He is SOOOO cute! Eric, I remember the day you were born... You were (and are) a cutie also. God is good! We are praying for Drew, Amy, and you. Wish I could be there! LYMI! Your Favorite Aunt Terry and Tom
Congrats on your next journey in life (by the way, some people will say its for the next 18 years--but there really is no "end" date, and you wouldn't want it that way). The second-to-last photo of Drew immediately, instictively holding his Dad's hand is a great image. What a great reminder of "us" as we instictively hold on to our Father's hand. Do you think Eric is going to let go of Drew's hand? I don't believe it for a minute. The Dad really is the one reaching to the Child. There is so much more to learn.......
