12:51 Maguire James slammed into Grand Rapids with a bang. Literally - once his shoulders came out he shot out toward the doctor - it was wild!!! 9lbs 7 oz. 21 inches - so this guy was a bit bigger than his sister, but has just about as much hair as she did. He's a cute buddy boy and we're grateful to God that he is perfectly healthy!
Thanks for your prayers and we'll have more pics up on the blog tomorrow. It's 2:30am - I am heading in to film his first bath and clean up. Abby is doing great but ready to sleep. He's nursing like a champ and we're hoping he's a champion sleeper like his sister too. Time will tell!
We love you all and are stunned again by the incredible craftsmanship and wonder of God's gift to us. We just passed Christmas and the "Stranger Than Fiction" story of Christ's birth. Having Mac just reminds of how awesome it is that God chose to manifest his plan through a little helpless child like Maguire. We are truly loved by an amazingly, humble and yet MIGHTY God!
John 6:28-29
Then they asked him, "What must we do to do the works God requires?"
Jesus answered, "The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent."
Today we find ourselves believing quite easily!
