Enoch's Birth



This is the day we have been waiting for the past 38 weeks... Enoch is born!

We arrived at the hospital at 6:30 am after Andrea's contractions started around 3:30 am.

Enoch was born at 5:23 pm and his measurements are 7.5 pounds & 19 3/4 inches. He had some water on his lungs, so he was transferred to the transitional nursery for several hours so they can carefully observe him. I stayed with him while he was away from Andrea. In the end, everything turned out fine and Enoch was reunited with Andrea around 9:00 pm.

We are currently in room #7702 at the Nashville Baptist hospital. We should all be back home on Friday.

Andrea is recovering well, she is just trying to get all the rest she can.

    He is beautiful! And, what a headful of hair! I wish we were there! I remember the day Abby was born. We are so happy for y'all. I would love to hear from y'all after things settle down. I think it was about 3 weeks before things settled down with us after Ben was born. We will be praying for your transition. We love y'all! Love, Hannah
