We just had a baby! - 01/11/04 03:40 AM

Sarah's husband Markell typing:

Wonderful news everyone! We've just given birth to our firstborn child! A boy we have named Charles.

Young Charlie came to us after a long, induced labour but was done without epidural or injury. Both baby and Mommy are in perfect health! (I only wish I could say the same, having had the flu for the week before birth and the week after. I'm tired of wearing a surgical mask whenever I hold my son!) But other than adjusting to feedings every hour or two throught the night, we could not be happier with our new station as parents!

You can see a picture of Charles on the following website after Monday or so.

Is it a boy or girl website
Baby ID: 14000901

Thank you for your prayers!

Thank you all for your kind words and blessings! It is nice to have friends rejoicing with us! Little Charlie is doing well at two weeks old and so am I! Tired but so happy I don't care how little sleep I am getting! Actually, I am quite blessed for Charles sleeps 3 - 4 hours at a time between feedings - can't say that for the daytime hours when it feels like he is constantly attached sometimes, but I truly don't mind!! He is so wonderful and we are so blessed to have him in our lives!! He is truly our miracle baby!!

I noticed that Markell forgot to give you all the details, so I will:

Charles Markell Cory Moss
born January 7, 2004 at 9:40 p.m.
Winnipeg, Manitoba
9 lbs, 9 oz
22.5 in
Perfect.

Markell did say it was a long labour, the midwife counted it from one in the morning on the 7th and that puts us at about a 20 hour labour with 2.75 hours of pushing at the end. It is such a wonderful experience, our God is just amazing!!! I will praise Him always!!!!

Thanks again, and God bless all of you!
