Happy Birthday McCabe Brooks

Happy Birthday McCabe Brooks.

He was 7 pounds, 12 ounces and was 19 inches long. He was born at 1:46 in the afternoon. We are so filled with JOY! Well Luke and I are filled with joy, Leighton isn't so sure what to think about it all.

Contractions started at 9 in the morning, we came to the hospital at 10:45. I was dialated to a 6 at 11:30, a 7 at 12:30 and was ready to push by 1:30. It was a quick labor and I only pushed about 5 times but it was still painful, so saying the words quick and only doesn't really sit well with me! It was well worth it and we consider McCabe quit a blessing!




First Bath!

Psalm 139:13-18

"For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother's womb.

I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.

My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place.
When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,

your eyes saw my unformed body.
All the days ordained for me
were written in your book
before one of them came to be.

How precious to me are your thoughts, O God!
How vast is the sum of them!

Were I to count them,
they would outnumber the grains of sand."
