Malachi Aiden is here!!

He is absoultely perfect! He came into the world on none other than April Fool's Day- a very appropriate date if you know Derek and I at all! He is a tiny little thing at 5 lbs 11 oz and 20 inches long. He is doing just fine despite being so small. The doctors say he will be alright as long as we can get him to gain some weight. And with the way he has been eating lately, I don't think that will be a problem at all! We are hoping to get to go home tomorrow afternoon after all of his final tests, although I think Derek and I are both nervous about not having a nurse button to push. We know that God will look over us though. We are so excited that God has decided to let us borrow one of his angels for a while and that He has entrusted us to help him grow up.

Please come back often. I plan on posting new posts and pictures as Malachi grows up and gets even cuter! Also, please feel free to leave comments! (You will have to create a username to do this)

Trying to wake up enough to eat! We had to play freeze out just to get him to wake up--hence no clothes!!
