big baby, little lady

Samuel Christopher Mapes
born: 4/4/08 at 1:11pm
8lbs!!!
only a few hours old here.

thanks to all for praying for us. this was a tough delivery, but God showed so much mercy to us thorough it. Samuel didn't want to relocate from his 39 week house, so he wedged his shoulder against the pubic bone. after wrestling with his midwife for a while, samuel made his appearance, and for a few seconds, made a wrinked face of defiance at the midwife. after that, as if a chorus of angels began to sing, samuel cried...bringing a mixture of tears and unexpected laughter to my voice also. we are so blessed...
