"Baby Nathan is Finally Here"

At 12:30 PM today Baby Nathan was born weighing in at 6 lbs 8 ounces and 20 inches long.  He is the most handsome boy ever and i couldn't be any prouder at this moment.  As soon as baby Nathan was born he was carried away so the NIC unit could take care of and make sure that he was ok.  After a few minutes i had a chance to see my son.  He was doing great and he had a lot of hair and i mean i full head. 

Nathan definitely has a cleft lip and palate and what we found out is that the palate is completely gone and his nasal cavity is completely exposed. This means that my son will have to be in the NIC unit until they can monitor his milk intake and make sure that he is doing well feeding. They just put in a feeding tube a few hours ago and he seems to be doing fine with the tube in.  We will have the cranio facial consult tomorrow and hopefully we can have a plan put in place that will allow Nathan to come home sooner than later. 

Bianca is doing great and is currently resting.  Thank you for all your support and prayers during these last few days.  Your prayers are what helped and will continue to help us.

Thanks again
