Benjamin Chance is here!

As many of you know, Sherri and I recently had a new addition to our family. Benjamin Chance was born September 17, 2009 at 6:16 am. He was only 24 weeks old and weighed in at 1 pound, 5 ounces and was 12.25 inches long. Needless to say, he was extremely premature and very small. After 5 long months in the NICU, Benjamin was able to come home on February 10, 2010. Benjamin is doing great now and is moving on from his stay at the NICU. Thank you to everyone for your thoughts and prayers; we really appreciate it.

If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.
Matthew 21:22

As you do not know the path of the wind, or how the body is formed in a mother's womb, so you cannot understand the work of God, the Maker of all things.
Ecclesiastes 11:5

Day 53- Holding Steady

Benjamin is holding steady. The doctors say he is still making progress it is just going to take him a while. His lungs are slowly developing... In the meantime, Todd and I continue to hold him twice a day. Benjamin really likes being held and put to sleep in the rocking chair. : ) I must say, Todd and I really enjoy it as well.


He weighs about 3 lbs 3 ounces and last night they measured him and he is now.... 16 1/4 inches long! Growing fast.

Tomorrow is another eye exam. Hopefully that goes well. Thank you all for your continued prayer support for Benjamin.
