Josiah Is Born and We Are Home

Many of you already know, but our son, Josiah Caedmon was born on the 2nd of February at 4:15 pm local time. He weighed 3.56 kilos and was 53 cm long. (I’ll let you guys look up the conversions to add a little audience participation) He is healthy and so is Jo. We were taken very good care of at the clinic and have received an incredible outpouring of help and love from our community here in Cameroon.

It is a little weird getting back into the newborn routine of no sleep, constant dirty diapers and confusion as to why he is crying, but we are relearning it all. Currently it is creeping in on 1 o’clock and Josiah is finding the basic pattern on the couch interesting enough that he doesn’t want to go to sleep. So lucky you, I am writing a blog post.

There is not much else to this post, partially because I am so tired, but I wanted to thank everyone for all the prayers and messages of encouragement. Now I need to try the impossible and get Josiah to go to sleep.
