Jude Michael

Our family's new gift from God has been such a joy. Jude is 2 weeks old and doing very well. Faith and I have been thanking God for our gift and pleading with Him to make us parents who reflect His glory well, pointing Jude to Him in every way we can. What a huge and wonderful responsibility!

Here are some pictures of Jude. Lindsey Brittain (www.lindseysheaphotography.blogspot.com/) came over today to take pictures of the fam (all 4 of us!) and also took great pictures of just Jude. I think you'll love them. We'll probably get those next week so I'll post those when I get them. We love you all. Thank you for your prayers, your love and your friendship to us.



Evan loves his brother:





I love Evan's face:


Our Boys:
Evan is on the left (July 2006) and Jude is on the right on each of these. Do you think they look alike?






















Jude was not happy:

  14. Michael, as a father of 2 young boys, I must say that it is a joy, and that fellow is a handsome one! Many congrats to you both. I hope this will inspire a whole handful of new songs, so we'll get a new c.d. one day? ;-)

  16. Hey there Bleekers, I just realized I have no idea how to send Faith an email..I'll correct that this week, but sending you encouragement this way instead....Just wanted you to know that SLEEP is at the top of my prayer list for you guys this week! For the small moments that you do get it may it be deep and restful...and may God help Jude to take nice LONG naps...Love to all of you!! Amanda

  17. I enjoyed very much these fifteen days in Barcelona. I met so many kind people of all around the world. I will ever remember the good time I spent in this great city. There are so many different architectures to see when walking in the streets. It’s wonderful!
