My Mister...


Jude Walker Harward



10 lbs. 1 oz. and we couldn't love him more.
Sister took a ton of beautiful photos... so I will post some better ones soon, but these are all we really had here. He is so healthy and beautiful, it made ever second of the most brutal 22 hours of my life MORE than worth it.

YES! A sister who makes big ones like I do. :) I had two 10 pounders, and one 11+ pounder.. God bless you. :) Can't wait to read your birth story, I hope you are going to write one. I have been checking your blog like crazy to see when he would arrive. I went over with each of my five kids too, usually 10 days, one went 14 days overdue. (not the 11 pounder) Congratulations to you!
hugs
