AHHHHHH-OHHHHHH,
Guys, he is beautiful. It is wonderful to see that beautiful to go along with his beautiful arms, wrists, legs, hair (you get the picture). Praise be to God, your 'labor' is done and you get to start the "recovery" period. I am so happy for you.

Debbie & Tim,

I can't think of anyone that God would have made parents of than you two. Don't say you're never been thru labor, because you have with this process. The boys and I are doing a Muskingum Cty happy dance for you three. Also thank you sooo much for sharing your journey. I have read the long version every day and cried happy tears. We will continue praying for you until your safe return home....WOW will that be different. What a wonderful thing for Eli to have to read when he gets old enough to appreciate this. Love you all three. Dani and boys

Mike & Dee said...

Awesome! You guys look great sitting there together! I can't wait to read about the adventures the next 2 weeks have in store for you. Can't wait to have you guys back home either =)

Always in our prayers,

Love Dee and Mike

Praise God! We couldn't be happier for you! I love your first family picture! The undiluted joy(and exhaustion) are written all over your faces...welcome to parenthood. We too have shared in your laughter and tears through the blogs. I think you guys should write a book about your experience-you know with all of the free time you'll have!:) Thank you again for sharing this labor of love with us! We all miss you terribly and can't wait to welcome all three of you home!

P.S. Everything going & growing well with baby. She has not yet made an appearance and dosen't appear to be in any hurry. I'll keep my legs crossed!

We Love You!

Hey!
Rejoicing in the Lord Jesus Christ for you today. I have been thinking and praying daily. I can't wait to met Eli when you get home to visit Mom and Dad. You look like a natural and look so happy and peaceful. I send blessings and the love of the Lord, traveling mercy and thankfulness to you and our God. I will look for more pics later.
All my love to the new Swingle family.
