Nathan and his Momma, Tianna, went through the wringer to get sorted out for this birth. He and she had several rough days before the time appointed arrived.
Weighing in at a tidy 6 lbs and 13 oz and 20 1/2 inches long, Nathan is the first little one for Thomas and Tianna. Thomas, like most new fathers isn't really sure what comes next. Becoming parents is a new adventure that doesn't have any kind of manual of instructions other than what you observed and felt from your own family as you were growing up and maybe some of what you saw in the families of your friends.
Tianna is pretty occupied with the immediate needs of this sweet little boy who is learning about life on the outside of his previously enclosed accommodations in the womb.
Of course, being newly minted grandparents is a change. So many things to wrap our hearts around that involve this new little life. So much love that never existed before.
While we waited for them to return from the birthing center so that we could meet this new little boy, we drove around the Lexington, Virginia area. So much history and wonder in the area.
Still didn't fill the time until we could be with Tianna, Thomas and little Nathan at their place. We wanted to wait until they were home and settled in. Other than follow up appointments, Tianna and Nathan will be at home on bed rest for a week.
Oh how I wish we lived closer so that we could spend more time visiting with this little boy! Our time is drawing to a close here in Virginia all too quickly!
Welcome to the world, little Nathan! We are happy you are here!
