Introducing Nicholas Anthony!!

Well he is finally here and doing great. Nicholas Anthony was born at 2:05pm and was 21" long and 9 lbs even. Christie did a great job and only had to push about 1/2 hour or so. She went into labor at 2 am and we left for the hospital at 4 as we had an hour drive - she got her epidural at 6 and was quite comfortable for the duration until the pushing began. Nicholas is doing well and they should be home tomorrow!



What a joy and a blessing to become a grandparent - and what a little angel to be born today!! It was wonderful to be able to be there for the birth of my grandson and share in the joy of welcoming him into the world!

Well Uncle Nick has dubbed little Nicholas "Mini-Me" - he is glad to share his name with him and he does look similar to Nick and Christie when they were babies.

What a beautiful BIG boy! Looks like Christie is taking after you Merf, having big babies. Sounds like everything went well. Answer to prayer. God is good! I look at your blog often after I have signed on to Elizabeth's. All the rooms look great. Finished just in time. Christie and Tony we will be praying for you both as you adjust to being parents.
