If you haven’t already heard the news, Tanner Joshua Moorhead was born Thursday, 3/19 at 10:32 AM. His 5 pounds 3 ounces is nothing short of a miracle. And his APGAR score was an astounding 9.9 out of 10 which is possibly even more of a testimony to God’s goodness.
We got the call less than an hour after our last update that labor had started and she was on her way to the Hospital earlier than expected. We rushed to the hospital and have been there ever since. This is the first opportunity I’ve had to get an update posted.
Tanner is a beautiful little boy (I promise pictures as soon as I can) and has a sweet laid back temperament. He’s eating well and in excellent health. The hospital staff have been amazing; they’ve allowed us to use an open room where we can spend time bonding with him and getting some rest for ourselves. We thought we could bring him home tonight, but they need to keep him overnight again just to run some special tests based on his circumstances and not on any actual problems…he appears to be the picture of health, praise God.
Abby and Sarah have not yet been allowed to see Tanner in person because it is RSV season and children under 12 aren’t allowed near the nursery. They are excited beyond belief and can’t wait to meet him. One more night if all goes well. I was able to run home for a few things and wanted to post this update. We can’t tell you how much we appreciate your prayers.
There have been many more amazing things that testify to God’s involvement in this process that I don’t have time to tell you all about right now. Just know that our God is an awesome God!
