This is what we were waiting for

Introducing Colton "Colt" Thomas. Entered the world on December 16th at 1:06pm. He is a chunker, at a whopping 9 pounds, 7 ounces and 22 inches long. He apparently has quite a set of lungs on him, is a marathon eater (a true Anderson), and has a full head of dark hair.

Simply put: he looks like a little John. Not even kidding.

N is doing wonderful. We met her first thing. I have a whole story to tell you of our experience meeting and talking to her, but she's wonderful and so is her family. They've been so sweet to us. And she's tiny...the baby is as big as she is.

I'll update soon, but couldn't wait to post pictures. Love to you all...please continue to pray for us!
