#12.


4 lbs, 8.9 oz.

Sixteen minutes after Elizabeth laid down on the delivery table on Thursday (sans epidural & sans husband, thanks to being so fast & furious), Noah William made his grand entrance into the world. Elizabeth did such a great job keeping him toasty warm for almost 34 weeks (after almost nine weeks on bed rest, in & out of the hospital). He'll make some good friends in the NICU for a bit, but we know that he'll be fine & we're so happy that he's being so well taken care of. He is already so loved by his family. It was so nice to pray for Baby Noah as a family when we were together at Priest Lake. Special. And - Mike & I get to meet him in less than two weeks when we're Utah for a wedding. Hooray. I can't wait to meet the twelfth addition to our growing group of neices & nephews.

Hudson is the sweetest older brother already.
