Our wee miracle

He's here!

John "Jack" Stephen Phillips was born Saturday, May 16 at 7:14 p.m. He weighed in at 8 pounds, 15 ounces and measured 20.25 inches long. He has an adorable little bit of brown hair and loves to make very expressive faces. So far, his favorite hobbies are eating and sleeping.

The birth—an emergency c-section—went quite a bit different than we had imagined, but little Jack is healthy and happy, and that is infinitely more important than any plans we may have had.

We are so blessed to be his parents and to share his little life!

Congratulations! There's nothing like snuggling that soft downy head under your cheek and breathing in that sweet baby smell, is there?

Take care of yourself and allow yourself time to heal. After 2 emergency c-sections, I know the feeling of having things go very differently than planned, but being very thankful for a healthy baby. Take lots of time to cuddle little Jack while you rest and heal! :-)
