My wife and son are amazing!

First of all, I am blogging on behalf of Julie. I don't know how much is too much but I wanted to share some pictures. But before I do here is the summary. After 22 hours of labor and 2 hours of hard, hard pushing my wife birthed our son Josiah Paul. All 7 pounds and 9 ounces and 20 1/2 inches of him. He was born at 11:13pm on Wednesday 8.6.08 in Denver, CO. Mom and baby are doing amazing! And he has more hair than his dad already. Thank you for all of your prayers. Proud and happy dad. PJ

Hurray! We are so excited. We were on prayer watch and glad that Josiah FINALLY decided to meet mommy and daddy. How did the umbilical cord cutting go? Love the pictures and hope we can come and visit in person soon. We love you guys.
Love,
Christine

We were praying for you throughout the day and was "chatting" with Camille when the news came in. We are so proud and happy for you and your new family of three. May the Lord watch over you and bless you in the coming days and weeks.
Congrats!
Love, The Gibbs

Julie - You are the WOMAN!! Can you believe how much more you loved him the instant he was in your arms? It only continues to get richer. Treasure each moment...even those ones in the wee hours - your special time together! Don't forget to ask for help, or take it when it comes. And cry when you need to. :)

Congrats to both of you - welcome to parenthood. It's quite a wonderful ride!

Love, Rebecca Genzink
