It's A Boy!

Yesterday afternoon I picked up a 2 day old boy from the hospital. He is absolutely beautiful! Andrew's mom is trying to make the decision of whether or not to place him for adoption. We feel so blessed to be able to minister to her during this difficult time by providing a safe home for her son. I am in contact with the mother and so far she definitely wants to talk to me a couple of times a day. She is very appreciative of what we are doing and I keep trying to encourage her and let her know that she is not alone. Pray that I can be a comfort and an encouragment to her during this time and that I can convey the love of Christ for both her and Andrew. I do not know what her beliefs are, but will try to approach that subject with her soon!
Andrew is a really good baby. Last night he slept really well except that he is a very noisy little guy! He was groaning and cooing and slurping almost all night long! Needless to say, Brett and I did not get much sleep! He eats regularly every 4 hours. He is a tiny little peanut, when he left the hospital yesterday, he was 5 lbs 14 oz. Mine were both over 8 pounds, so he is really tiny to me! He has slept all morning either in the bassinet or the bouncy seat so we got all of our school work done without any troubles.
Thank you for your prayers and for your support! I especially thank my mom, dad, and sister-in-law, Amy, who rounded up some clothes and the basinnet for me yesterday afternoon while I was picking up the baby!
