It's a...


BOY!


It was a long day, but at 2203 we welcomed Luke Arthur into this world. He had his own ideas about how long he needed to stay inside.


He weighs 8 pounds, 2 ounces and is 21 inches long.


Mom is exhausted and hungry, and finally got some food. Luke has learned how to breathe, cry, eat and coo and likes to look at the pictures on the walls.
Thank you all for the prayers and encouragement.
Tim

I can't believe it took that long. Holy Cats! How awful. I'm glad the epidural seemed to work! Can't wait to see more photos of him. He is so sweet!

Hello Luke,what a beautiful Boy, Praise the Lord! I know I can't come until the 16th but boy is that a struggle. The only consolation is that Sheila will be there shortly (just a little green here). Rest well. Do a big family Group Hug from me to all of you. Can't wait, can't wait!
Love Always,
MOM

He is soooo beautiful. I can't wait to find out more! And see more pictures! (Far in the future when you get your head above water, of course).

Congratulations on a beautiful baby boy! He's going to be so much fun. And what a lucky boy to have two older sisters to show him the ropes :)
