I'm an aunt again!

Today was a touch and go day... Craig's brother and his wife were expecting their third child in May, 5 weeks from today.  The little one decided to come early and there was nothing the doctors could do as she was already receiving shots regularly to carry him to full term.  We got the call from Craig's mom, who is celebrating her birthday today, that they rushed into the hospital very early this morning.

We just got the call that Liam James was born at 5 lbs. 8 oz. and he came out crying like a healthy baby!  They are still doing tests to see how he is and he will be in the premie wing for now. Please add him to your prayers and the family. Craig's brother was supposed to start a new job on Monday and was scheduled to be gone for training this week. I'm sure it will all work out. My mom-in-law just got a very special present for her birthday... a  new grandson!

Congratulations! We will say a few prayers. But, Liam sounds like he made a great entrance. Peanut was only 5lb 2 oz and 4 weeks early. They grow so quickly. And, what a wonderful present for your mother in law. My niece, Sara, was born on my mom's birthday. They share a special something. Sara still remembers to call grandma and wish her a happy day:)
