Caleb Arrives!
Caleb Elijah Sieler was born at 11:11am on Tuesday, August 9 at South Miami Hospital. He was 8 lbs and 3 1/2 oz. He was delivered via emergency C-section by Dr. Chi. Here's how it went down:
Monday
6:30pm - Janet started going into labor
Tuesday
4:00am - We check into South Miami Hospital
10:00am - C-section ordered after baby's heartrate is dropping significantly
11:11am - Caleb is born!
3:00pm - Caleb is transported to Miami Children's Hospital
Mom is recovering from some pretty serious anesthesia. It's amazing where that stuff can take you! She is doing well, resting at the hospital for a few days.
Caleb Elijah is with Dad at Miami Children's Hospital. He is doing well. Immediate surgery is not necessary. He is on oxygen so that his saturation level in his blood is stable. He continues to undergo several tests and will be observed for several days, and depending on his progress may or may not need surgery within a week or two. He will likely need (a second) surgery around three months.
He has a full head of black hair, long fingers, and a cute face. We plan to post pictures soon!
Thank you to so many for your friendship and prayers.
For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother's womb. I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Psalm 139:13-14

Adrian,
Thanks for the encouragement. I don't think we will ever comprehend what it means to have "every spiritual blessing in Christ" until we get to heaven. The Lord's love for us is so amazing, so profound, so consistent!
