Our Big News



Bennett Anthony Jordan
Born July 12th at 9:46 pm in El Paso, TX
Weight: 4lb 9oz
Length: 16.5inches
Adopted into our Family on July 15th, 2010
We arrived in El Paso last night at 7pm and spent the last day by his side at the NICU feeding him, snapping zillions of photos and grinning from ear to ear.
He was born a little early so he is small, but very healthy.
He LOVES his bottle and loves challenging the NICU nurses by tangling up his cords
He has gained 2 oz already so as long as he keeps eating like
a champ and putting on weight, he should be out of the hospital in no time.


All that hair...just like mommy





Amazed by his Daddy


Caption from Ben: "Holy cow, can you believe these are my parents."
We are so amazed by this little man that God brought to our family. No greater gift have we ever been given.
