Little Levi Alan made his way into this world on Saturday, May 30, 2009 at 2:40 pm. He weighed 8 lb. 7 oz. and 21 inches long. He is the picture of perfection.
I can't wait to update you all and fill you in on our labor and delivery story. Whew, it was a doozy!! I would do it all over again right now for my precious baby boy, though. Husby got to help deliver and even got to catch him! How great is that!?
I have been bawling all day....I just had NO idea the immense love I would feel for this little life. I can't even begin to describe it. I just burst into tears when I gaze into his little eyes.
I will tell the whole story after I get some sleep and some time to update. Right now, I'm going to cuddle up with my little lovie and catch some Zzz's on my last night at the hosptial.
Thank you God, for this baby boy you have entrusted me with.
And thank you all for your prayers.

ReplyDeleteHe's so precious. Can you believe Noah and Levi ended up being born 3 days apart? We left the hospital Friday afternoon with little Noah and probably just missed you! I've been thinking about the fact the gift of God's grace towards sinners like us brings an overwhelming joy in itself, yet along with this gift comes the gift of a beautiful baby boy to love. And you're right...it's truly an overwhelming love. :)
ReplyDeleteCONGRATS!!! I am SO excited for you. He looks absolutely perfect!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet and precious little boy. He's absolutely soooo cute! Congratulations from the bottom of my heart. My God hold and bless your sweet family. Congrats!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!!!!! He is adorable! Can't wait to hear more.
ReplyDeleteGod bless you all.

So so so sweet! You have no idea what encouragement this is for me. I'm sure you haven't been keeping track, but I'm almost 38 weeks and expecting our Adam any day now since I tend to go early. He's gorgeous and you are a very blessed Mama! Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteCONGRATULATIONS!! He is precious!
ReplyDeleteAwww!! Congrats, he is so beautiful. I can't wait to hear the whole story!
ReplyDeleteWhat an honor it has been to cover you in prayer the past 8 months that i have known you were pregnant. Our God indeed has been with you and yours the entire time and isn't His timing so amazing as well as His grace. Whitney, thanks for sharing in such detail, "Your Journey toward the Glamorous Life of a Housewife." I know it has been your life long dream since you were just a tiny 3 and 4 year old to be a mommy and you will be the very best because of your love for God and your family. May God continue to bless you on your newest journey of being a Mommy. I love you dear one and am so very happy for you all.
ReplyDeleteOh Congratulations! He is gorgeous! I have been stalking, so nice to been "with" you the whole pregnancy!
ReplyDeleteWelcome little Levi-he is beautiful.

I just read your birth story. We have VERY similar stories!! You can read mine here: http://joelandcindycutie.blogspot.com/2010/08/kadens-birth.html if you'd like :) I didn't notice any marks from the vacuum on his head. They suctioned Kaden 3 times, but it still didn't work :( And he still has somewhat of a bump on his head too (at 6 months). But they say it will go away! I hope so!
