It's a Girl!

We had our first baby yesterday (Saturday)! My heroine, Monique, after 9 hours of labor and less then 1/2 hour of pushing gave birth to our first daughter - Susan Elise Einwechter!

 Our new little family; the Lord is so good to give us this little girl to raise for Him!

We named her Susan Elise Einwechter, after her two grandmothers, and we plan on calling her most of the time Elise.

My precious little daughter....

Weighing the baby an old fashion, but reliable, way

 She weighted 7 lbs. and was 20 inches long.

 Your so comfortable to be near, Mom! ~ Elise

 It's amazing, when the Lord Jesus brings 1 man and 1 woman together in marriage, how He can creates a new life between them. Life is so precious everyday from conception!

 A very happy, new Uncle Noah!

 My wife had our baby at home, right in our own bedroom - something that was a dream of hers. And these two wonderful midwives where right there helping. They were such a blessing! 

But it's been a long day, and both mother and baby have been through a traumatic experience and are worn out. So, let's go now and let them sleep quietly....

Thank you everyone for your inquires the last few weeks about how my wife and baby are doing. We appreciate your support of our little family!

    I am sure all of your parents are thrilled. We were blessed to see Monique's parents at a wedding while they were waiting to meet their new grandchild. :)
    Lord bless each of you.
