Happy Birthday Xander!

Today we welcomed another precious child into our world. Xander was born at 10 am. He weighs 7 lbs 11 oz, the same as his mama and his big sister! He is 20 inches long. He is perfect!

Please pray for quick recovery for Brandi after her C-section today and a good night's rest for all.

Here are the first pictures I have. More to come soon!

Brighton talking with the nurse about when Xander would be getting his first bath. She was very excited to talk to the nurse about her baby brother. She is so grown up!

Sleeping away while being passed around to his family in waiting!


Look at this hair, not as much as Brighton had, but its very dark.


Little feet!

More sleeping!

Look, that's me and Xander!


Ana is a BIG sister! She just kept saying "baby, baby, baby" she also said " I love baby!" I wasn't around for Brighton's first look at Xander, but I am sure she looked just as proud! I will post some of those when I get them.

I am so glad to hear the good news. Xander is so cute! I thought about Brandi all day yesterday and it took a lot of restraint on my part to not call and bug you about the baby. Hey, is Ana your nickname for Kiana? Cute! Let us know if and when she would like visitors.

We made it safely home around midnight last night. I really didn't want to leave. God knows what He is doing, but it is hard to leave that precious child of mine. I miss them so much.
Thanks for all you do to love on them and help. Thanks for the pictures and any more you want to share.
Love you,
Susan
