First Days Home

First pics of Josh (left) and Jet (right) together.

So Val and I were peregnant together. She was due 2 weeks after me. The night I was in labor, she joked and said that it would be funny if we had our babies on the same day. Well she actually had her baby just 3 days after I did. She labored for 24 hours, but praise God, he is healthy! Joe and Val named him Joshiro Luke. He was born at 6:51 pm. He was 7 lbs and 3 oz. He weighed the same as Jet and was 18 and 1/2 inches long. Since they were only a few days apart, the dads decided to have a joint 1st birthday party with "Star Wars" as the theme. So it will be Joshiro Luke Skywalker and Master JEDIdiah Terrence.

During our first days home we had some special visitors come to meet baby Jet. My mom, brother, and my aunt and her family, Dad and Tracey, and also some friends from church dropped by to see the new addition to our family. It was great to have some company over to especially the ones that brought food! Thanks a bunch!
