Great with Child

Elaine is living large these days. Our little bundle of joy is upside down – that’s breech for those inclined to medical terminology. Thus, Huck is scheduled for delivery by cesarean next Wednesday. Hopefully the little emperor will flip on his own, but he seems exceedingly comfortable in his current location. We covet prayers for a safe surgery and for good health for mother and child.

Elaine - you look great! Sorry you'll be missing out on the "traditional" birthing experience, though. Just kidding - the traditional way is quite brutal :) Who knows - maybe Huck will flip unexpectedly. I'm sure that you're both excited, and I eagerly await pictures and good news next week. I wish you luck and a speedy recovery.

Was wondering when Huck's impending arrival was going to get a mention on the blog. Elaine looks great! Prayers coming up. Can't wait to hear the good news from Mel.

Good luck with the surgery! Adam and I will be thinking of you.

I just heard the good news! Congratulations you two. It's about time.... Was Mark Twain the inspiration behind "Huck" or did you pick it out of a hat? Hmm... I'm going with the hat!
