Wow he really does look like Clavin. HE is so big!!!! Lots of hair. Jessica and Richy Good JOb!!!! Thank God for this beautiful gift.

Mama PC said...

Wow!!!! PRAISE TO OUR LORD FOR HIS MAGNIFICENT WORKS!!! We got a call to pray around 1 a.m. and pray we did. It was a battle. It was a war. But, God promised LIFE for this little man!!!

I had a dream several months back that the little guy had blonde(!!!) hair. Fat and blonde and several months old. Let's see if the hair turns golden after a few months...

We love you and rejoice with you!!!

Congratulaions and blessings for each of you. I know that as soon as he gets that mommy's milk, he will plump up and the both of you will be coming home very soon.

Richy
How are things going today? How was last night?

Things are good! Toby has been stable for almost 24hrs. Visitors more than welcome today! We will be discharged from the hospital today, (I'll probably leave around 7pm) Toby will be here for a short while. Toby really like the pacifier, which is great. One time they put some sugar on it, and he really went for it! Just like his mommy. - Richy

Josh said...

Toby is beautiful. . .just a beautiful, cute, handsome, healthy, plump, little boy! We are very happy for the whole family! PRAISE THE LORD!! So, glad everything is going along so well!

We have some potentially exciting news. We spent 7 hours with a realtor yesterday, really nice guy and a Christian, someone a friend told us about. We looked at a house we had already seen and were very interested in, and three others. We wrote up an offer on the one we already liked last night and are waiting to hear back today if they accept our offer. So, we could be moving forward with buying our first home next week!!

Josh said...

Hey Katie,

Yes, I’m really enjoying being off all week. We were over with Shannon’s parents and grandparents Christmas Eve thru Wednesday morning. We drove home Wednesday, unloaded our car, got a bit to eat, then headed to a pregnancy check-up appt. Baby’s heartbeat is sounding stronger and Shannon is moving along just perfect. We’re both feeling outside movement everyday, which is a lot of fun, and very neat to think about our little baby in there coming in less than 4 months!

After seeing the realtor yesterday, we had a friend over for dinner and were getting together with some other friends this afternoon. So, yeah being off has been great and is giving us time with family, friends, and for home searching. I am, at the same time, partially excited to get back to work and start my new position January 6th.

Josh said...

That’s great, Katie. Congratulations!

Katie, that is great news about your promotion/pay raise.
That is ?% increase.
6/10
who can do the math

Anonymous said...

That's only about a 75% pay hike. That sure beats the standard 3% pay hike Steve gets for cost of living each year.Way to go Katie

Mama PC said...

Jessica - Are you camping out at the hospital? Been thinking of you. Richy did an awesome job of leading the meeting tonight. We missed you. Love you!!!

(Whaddya think of me man's chin? I personnally can't wait til he grows his beard back....and he knows it.... :-)

Mama PC said...

Katie! That's great about your pay raise!!!!! That % is rare!!! Thanks Mama-3 for the math!

Kim, how are you by the way. The pic of your kids is great!

Oh, and by the way, am I invited to post on this site? I know I'm new here, but have been checking it ever so often to check up on Toby (by way of Hannah's invitation)... hope you don't mind if I 'look in' and comment once in a while. It seems like you people are enjoying yourselves....
