Baby Gabe

We just got back (last week) from southern California where we spent a few days with our friend Laura. She just had a gorgeous baby boy named Gabriel River William...he is adorable. He was born on February 27, 7lbs.10oz. I told Laura to call us as soon as she went into labor. Her sister called me Friday morning at 1:30 am. Of course we were awake...(it was one of Jacob's no sleeping nights). We packed up our stuff and left the next afternoon. It took us about 8 hours to get to So Cal; the boys didn't stay occupied very well in the car but it wasn't too bad. We had a few blow ups and "i hate the car" screaming matches, but we made it. I met Gabe that night and stayed the night with Laura in the hospital the next night while Luke and the boys stayed in a hotel down the street. We stayed until Monday when she was able to leave the hospital. It was such a blessing to get to spend time with her and her new baby. She was so excited to meet Jacob and Weston. As you can see, they hit it off. I'm sure the three of them will have lots of fun growing up together. It is amazing that we have babies the same age..who would have guessed this two years ago when we met her in the park? God works in amazing ways.
