2-22-12

 February 22, 2012. It was the best day of our lives! Our precious boy was born at 1:27 pm weighing in at 9 lbs, 5 oz. His headful of hair is the same color as his daddy's and he has mommy's pouty mouth! He's gorgeous! Jensen had his first echo a few hours after birth and everything seems to be what they expected. The only new finding was that his atrial septum was slightly deviated, but Dr. Fuller already assured us that its nothing to worry about. Jensen has been doing well on room air and we couldn't be happier about how pink he's been =)
Not only are we extremely blessed to have such a stable heart baby, we've been able to hold and nurse him! This was far beyond our expectations! He seems to be a sleepy boy right now and mostly falls asleep when he tries to eat (but he sure does look cute doing it!).
We are so proud of how well he is doing! Today we should be able to talk more with his doctors and find out where he stands. Hopefully we will get a surgery date soon. I also want to thank you all for your support and prayers! I couldn't possibly thank everyone individually because there has been a massive outpouring of love on our little boy =) We are so grateful and will continue to request your prayers. Its no coincidence that our little miracle was born on Ash Wednesday. Thank you all so much!
