Unto Us

We had a wonderful day with Walker yesterday. In fact, we realized at the end of the day that the little guy had not been in his crib once. There was a steady stream of visitors and admirers from about 10:00 in the morning until -- actually I'm not sure when because when Rick, Ben and I left at 7:00, Aunt Lindsay was holding him. I'm not planning to rush up there this morning. I'm going to wait until 9 or so!
He is a little darling. He's eating well and doing all the other things babies are supposed to do. His cry is more of a little squeek right now, but I'm sure he'll get that worked out soon. He wore a white terrycloth newborn sleeper yesterday and was totally lost in it, but was so cuddly and precious.
Kara is doing well. She's a little sore but is moving better already. She was worried that she might sleep through his cries because she has always been a sound sleeper. But not to worry, she said his breathing woke her up several times last night. I guess the "Mommy" kicked right in!
Aaron is just as sweet as he can be with both Kara and Walker. He changes diapers and discusses type of poop and all those kinds of things.
We are pretty certain that they'll get to go home today. I know that Kara and Aaron are anxious to get little Walker home and start living together as a family.
What a miracle God has shown us in this precious new life. I so desire to be a mimi who teaches my little Walker and all the grandchildren who follow to love the Lord with all their hearts and to serve Him only.
"I will sing of the lovingkindness of the LORD forever;
To all generations I will make known Thy faithfulness."

He is sooo cute! He looks extra sweet with his Poppy. I noticed that you (mommy) have not made it into any pictures. I wonder why :)

I think you should make a family pact to put him down sometime before he is 2 so he can learn to walk. I am sure that I will allow our upcoming granddaughter to be without me occasionally. Good Pics. thanks for sharing.

He is adorable. Pics like that make me want a baby, that is until you start talking about crying, diapers and poop. I think I will wait until James is at least out of school! Hope to get to meet the little man soon.

Don't know if you will read this but yes I would like a pie. Preferably lemon to take my mind of too much work!
