With much joy I’m happy to announce that Lucas Jay Bryan is here! He arrived Thursday, 2/12, via c-section at 12:59p. He weighed 7 pounds + 7 ounces and is 20.5 inches long!

He’s healthy, content, and has quite a bit more hair than his brother David did!

As you may know, Justin and IΒ did not know if we were going to have a girl or a boy on delivery day, so the excitement in the operating room during the procedure was palpable!

And Justin was able to be the one to tell me, “It’s a BOY!!!!”

I’ll never forget the look in his eyes when he saw Luke and declared that he had another son!

My recovery is going extremely well. Luke is content and sleepy, and even got to meet his big brother yesterday.

It’s been a wonderfully full, emotional few days with such happy moments happening so close together. Thank you for your well wishes too! I appreciate it so much!

So thrilling! Congratulations to your sweet family. Two boys close in age has been one of life’s greatest joys for our family and I’m certain it will be for you too! May God richly bless every day of little Luke’s life.

Doesn’t David seem HUGE now? I remember the day I had my little one (now 10 months) and my 14 month old (now 2) walked in the room to meet his brother for the first time. My big boy seemed HUGE then. It was bittersweet. They love each other so much now. Sometimes I’ll even catch them wrestling on the floor which is quite comical for such small humans.
Congratulations Kate!
