Jude Glen has arrived!!!

Eight months ago, when we told Stevi's parents that she was pregnant, Doug immediately requested that he be born on January 22nd (his father's birthday). When Stevi's water broke yesterday afternoon, it looked as if Doug may get his wish. But Jude was born 7 minutes before midnight on January 21st.



Both Stevi and Jude are doing great! He was 7 lbs. 11 oz. and 19.5 inches long, including a 5 inch long cone-head :)




For those of you wanting to see his new digs...here's some photos of his room. Yeah, those are custom drapes and custom bedding! For those of you who don't know, Stevi's mom made all of those! Don't they look sweet?!! Thanks Colleen!!!

Holysmokes! Yay! Glad to finally see my lil' hiking buddy. He's a cutie. Stevi, you look pretty good for having just had a baby. Tell Troy that the mustache and glasses make him look like a dirty cop.

Love you bye!

Yeah!!!!! Oh, I'm so excited for you--mostly because of this bundle of joy you have in your arms, but also the side bonus of not being pregnant anymore (I know you were looking forward to that)! We're thrilled for you both.Can't wait to see more pictures when you have time! Cute nursery, too--yeah for Mom's/Grandma'a that can sew well, my mom will be doing the same for us.

Congratulations! Praise God for a healthy baby and safe delivery! We're hoping that Jude is a good sleeper so you guys can catch up on some rest.

2 Questions:
Can you fit grapes up his nose yet?
Is he a member of the dime club (more importantly, will he remain a member)?
