IT'S A BOY!!!

Our Christmas gift arrived three weeks early as God blessed our family with a baby boy last night. Mac Thomas Wright was born at 8:42pm on Monday, November 30th. Despite being three weeks early, Mac was the largest of our babies weighing in at 7 lbs, 11oz. and is almost 21 inches long. Pictures will follow soon, but he does have strawberry blonde hair just like Daddy & Brady and we think he's a doll.

Katie did wonderfully and got to experience a completely different labor than the first two kids. After her regular doctor's appointment at 9am the doctor sent her into the hospital and I met her here shortly after. Needless to say it was a long day for Katie as she labored until the evening. She was a champ though and when it came time to push, the little man was out in less than 5 minutes. She is enamored with her new little man (as any good mom should be) and secretly hoping that he is the cuddler she's been waiting for!

Unfortunately due to the H1N1 stuff going around, the hospital doesn't allow anyone under 18 to visit new babies. We'll be home soon enough and are hopeful that it's a fun transition to have everyone together and that Avery is not too bummed that she didn't get a new baby sister.

Thank you all for your love and your prayers,
Adam
