Another little miracle - Thank you Lord!
John Michael Phares
born August 11th, 2015. 8lb 2oz of chub and cuteness.
(Notice I put the YEAR there in the birthdate - that's to avoid any confusion since my blogging schedule seems to correspond with my babies births ;-)

| ~ one day old at the hospital ~ |
To make up for lost time, and to tide you over until I post again, I'm going to go ahead and post an abundance of photos of John's first few days...
 |
| A very happy mamma - and baby John even looks smiling and happy |
 |
| baby John me, 36 years ago |
See any resemblances there?
 |
| Grandpa (John Michael), Grandma, and baby John Michael |
 |
| Helen Sue ~ my other look-alike |
 |
| Paul Benjamin ~ very happy to have a little brother! |
 |
| At this moment Susie and Paul were more intrigued by each others funny faces than by John.... |
 |
| our bright eyed Susan |
 |
| Our five children, 5 years old and under. We are sooooooo blessed! |
 |
| My wonderful husband Ben ~ who humored me and let me take this photo of him |
 |
and of course, a pajama picture ~ Lucy gets the first turn while everyone else
wait for last baby cuddles before bedtime |
Due to the excitement and fullness of "normal" life with five young children I have barely taken any photos since these first few days, I'll try to do better for my next bi-annual post ;-)
"O give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever."
Psalm 136:1
Elisabeth thinks baby aunt Mary looks like Helen.
ReplyDeleteChristine thinks baby John looks like Paul.
The Lord is good. What a blessed family.
Awwww! There he is! And boy- does he EVER look like you! I thought it was the same baby-just looking around in an evening room- until I saw the caption! And it is pretty neat to see the last post of little Susie and then see little Susie in those pictures!
ReplyDeleteWhat a glorious armful the Lord has given you! Congratulations!
