Liam Joshua

The little miracle has arrived!
The Stats:
Name - Liam Joshua
Liam means "protected" and Joshua means "God saves"
Date - August 18, 2008
Time - 5:50 pm
Weight - 7 lbs 14 oz
Length - 20 3/4"
Delivery - C-section
We wanted to let everyone know that Mommy and Liam Joshua are both healthy and are currently in each others arms! During the c-section, Amy lost a lot of blood and they had some difficulties stitching the incision because of scar tissue from her previous c-section with Drew. She is doing much better now - her spirits are high and she's very excited! Liam has some reflux from the delivery but besides that he is healthy! What a huge miracle packed into that little man! And he has a whole head of hair, too!
I've attached a picture of Amy and baby Liam Joshua. Keep them in your prayers. Pray that Amy and him have a strong, healthy day tomorrow. Amy may be having a transfusion tomorrow to help make up for the blood she has lost today and she's feeling like things are quite busy right now. Pray for peace of mind, trust in God! (because look just what He is capable of!), and that God would bless this new addition to the family! Thank You Father For Your Amazing Love! I will write updates as things change or as Amy has messages for her bloggers! :) Thank you for your prayers and encouragement.
