Madison's BIRTHday!

September 4th, 2012---

Mallori and Justin headed to the hospital to welcome Madison to the world! We have all spent lots of time praying for Madison and Mallori and a safe, healthy delivery day for mom and baby. And, the day went PERFECT! After my experience with Jacob and what I see at work (we sometimes get post-partum  women transferred to our ICU with MAJOR delivery complications) I have come to know what a MIRACLE a perfect uncomplicated delivery is! And, I truly believe the miracle of a healthy delivery is AS MUCH of a miracle as God does in healing preemies! Anyway.... God is GOOD and we are so thankful for the healthy arrival of Madison!

She is really a beautiful baby, and I cannot wait to watch her grow and develop! It is so fun and AMAZING to watch babies grow and develop their appearance and personalities. We had lots of family in town to welcome Madison to the world, and it was SO nice that Jason and I were both off work for the week! We had a great time relaxing and enjoying time with family, and we are looking forward to having everyone back to Memphis for Little Miss Madison's Dedication at our church!

There were LOTS of pictures taken, and I am hoping that I get copies of some of them (especially the ones of Jacob and Madison)! He was such a SWEET boy with her! Here are some of the pictures I took!
