Eat, Sleep & Poop

Well, it's been 2 weeks now and our little family is starting to settle into a routine...kind of. Joel's eating well, pooping like there's no tomorrow, and sleeping in between! Like father, like son. Jane's still moving a little slow, but she's feeling better and better each day. She went on a walk yesterday and was really glad to get out of the house for a bit.
Jane's mom flies back to the States on Thursday. I'm thinking I'm going to lose some weight when she leaves. There won't be anybody here to cook! Yikes! With all the new laundry I had to break down and buy a new dryer. We now have TWO clotheslines! Jane's mom said that Joel has so many clothes that we could just throw them away as they get dirty. That way we wouldn't have to do laundry. I'm really starting to like the idea!

Joel Deron Geroy

Joel Deron Geroy was born on Sunday, September 14th at 11:23 am. The official numbers on this litte fella were 8 lbs. 12 oz and 21" long. After passing his due date by over a week, Jane's doctor decided it was best to go ahead and induce labor. The indcution started at 9:00 am, and 2 hours and 23 miutes later, out popped our little boy. Jane and I were thrilled that she did not have to have a c-section, but even more, that Joel arrived safe and sound. The Lord answered alot of prayers and we are so thankful for His outpouring of grace on us and for this special gift He has given us in Joel.
