Merry Christmas! We have so much to be thankful for this year but the most amazing thing ever happened:
Welcome Joshua Michael Daum
He was born Decemeber 10th at 5:58 a.m. he weighed 6 pounds 7 ounces and was 19 and three quarter inches.
Everyone has told us about how much our lives would change and how we would get absolutely no sleep from here on out. So based on our expectations, life has been really great! We love being parents and are learning to adjust our lives to accommodate someone who needs constant care.
It is amazing to see that God still allows life to continue, evidenced in this little life that we get to hold and nurture.
We are taking a break from partnership raising until the new year, but we are excited to move forward with that very strongly.
We wish you all a Merry Christmas!
