our newest addition!!!!!!

Let us introduce you to our newest addition... Theodore Cain Stephenson!!!! Little Theo was born on Thursday, October 28th at 5:17 am. He was 5 lbs 7 oz and was 18 1/4 in long. Theo wasn't due to arrive until mid/late November, but evidently was ready to come and arrived 4 weeks early. At delivery he had a strong heart rate, but they had a difficult time getting him to take good breaths. After their initial evaluation and watching him they decided it was best to transport him to a hospital with a NICU. Theo is still in the NICU and will probably be there for a couple more days. It has been an emotional journey, but one that we wouldn't change for the world. God has definitely given us a precious gift...in many ways. We are so thankful for Theo!! More updates and pictures to come :)
