Baby Caleb

The condensed version for now: Tanya had her baby at 3:53 this morning. He weighed in at 6lbs 13oz & was 19" long. He is absolutely beautiful. Everything went very well & very quickly & both mom & baby are doing fine. I was able to be in the room for the birth along with Kari, Breezy & Jen, the adoptive mom. It was incredible & amazing & emotional & I'm so grateful I was able to be a part of it. It truly is a miracle. More to come.

It WAS an incredible experience to be part of a divine plan to get Jen and Brian the baby they have waited so long for. It was hard for Tanya to be down on bedrest for 2 1/2 months, and take that awful medication to keep her from miscarrying. She hung in there, and the love and support we felt from members of our family was felt and appreciated. Tanya is ready now to get on with her life, and go to high school. Can you believe she's had three home-coming offers already?!
