Children are a gift from the Lord... Psalm 127:3
comment icon1 Comment

Monday was Canadian Thanksgiving and what a wonderful way to celebrate what the Lord has provided! Just within the past week we have experienced His love through the blessed gift of our precious daughter, Addison Avery McCulley. After 46 hours of contractions, an ambulance ride to a larger hospital, and a C-Section surgery, Leslie gave birth to Addison at 1:50AM on Thursday the 5th of October. She weighed 7lbs 4oz and measured 19.46 inches in length.

Welcome to the world!

Almost from the moment she was swaddled she begin looking for her momma to get some food. Her mouth couldn't stop moving.
Addison meets Bonnie (our Doula)
Bonnie was an amazing source of support to Les & I in the process of this delivery. A doula (pronounced dula) is someone who helps through labor by providing emotional and physical support to the laboring mother.

LES WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! One of the nurses commented that they had never seen such a content and happy woman and yet enduring such pain. Though our plans for an ideal delivery went up in smoke, the end result was just as we had prayed for - a healthy mom and a healthy new baby girl.
