Worth the wait...

Sunday, Aug 24, at 5:02 in the morning, the Lord added to our family in the most amazing way possible. We were given Joseph Preston Greenhaw!!!

Joseph was a big, healthy, baby boy weighing 8lbs 12oz, and measuring 22 inches long. He has a full head of gorgeous hair, a darker than-you-would-expect complexion, and a face that leaves no doubt as to whose brother he is. Aside from the full head of hair, Joseph is almost identical to Ruth in her baby pictures. Speaking of Ruth, we love Joseph almost as much as she does... all she wants to do is touch him and hold him every time she sees he is awake. (we realize that is likely to change!)

Mama is doing great as well, and soaking up all the visitors and help.

Check back often, as we'll be sure to keep the site updated these first few days, weeks, and months.
