Newest Member of the Smith Family


To all those who faithfully follow this blog that gets neglected all the time, we want to introduce our newest Smith member. After 38 hours of labor, Jasiri Samuel David came into the world at 4:13 am on September 16th weighing in at 5lb 4oz and 19 inches. Jasiri had some trouble regulating his breathing so he was sent to the NICU. After a few days, he also developed acid reflux which didn't help the breathing issues. He is okay, but they are keeping him at the NICU for observation for a little while. It's hard not to have him here, and the trips to the hospital every three hours for feedings are tiring, but we are thankful that we are only in the stage of observation. Please pray that he gets to come home soon.

It was a really long time before I actualy got to hold him, but when I did...wow.

Looks like Jeromy...


Meet Isaiah, Baby.
