Look at that hair!
Close up of Ezra.
Daddy, Mommy, and Baby Ezra.
Ezra post-operation.
Ezra is 3 pounds 13 ounces and 17 inches long. Tiny little guy. He was born at 35 weeks gestation. He has a great set of lungs though as we heard him crying. He is such a little fighter and the surgean said that he did so well. They were able to reinsert all of his intestines...sometimes there isn't enough room in the abdominal cavity to put them all in and sew it all up...but they were able to do it on him. Basically, he is doing as well as these babies can do and so the prognosis is really good. THANK YOU to all of you for all of your prayers, good thoughts, and support. We are so happy to be his parents. We know we have some long days ahead of us but we are so hopeful.
Bella is thrilled to finally be able to wear her Big Sister tee shirt! Not a great picture but we'll get a better one tomorrow.

I am so excited for you guys! Congrats! I am glad his surgery went well. Keep us posted on his progress! HOw long will he have to be in the hospital? I am seriously thrilled for you!
I was thinking about you guys yesterday and ALMOST called, but thought if he WAS born, you were already having a very busy day. (So I said another little prayer instead.) I am SO glad that everything went well with his surgery! I can't believe how little he is...what a trooper!
I am thrilled for your entire (growing) family!!! Welcome little Ezra!
Congrats to you two. I am so happy you finally were able to meet your little boy. He looks so cute. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers!!! Cute shirt for Bella.
I am sooo excited for you and can't wait to chat (when you have a minute-- which might be awhile). He looks great and we are praying for him. How fun that you can finally see him. Have you had a chance to hold him yet? Keep the pictures coming. Take care.
okay so I'm a total blog stalker! This is Julie, Heather Empey's sister, and she told me to check out little Ezra. What a tiny little trooper and a huge congrats to you guys. We'll keep him in our prayers for a quick recovery!
That is such exciting news! We're really happy for Bella to have a little (very little) brother. Hope he can be home with you soon.
He is just perfect!!! We are so excited to hear more and see more pics. Congrats to all of you...
