John Paul Stevens
Born June 17, 2013 at the Birth Center, Wilmington, DE
7 lb 10 oz and 20 inches
| At the Birth Center, we were allowed to hold and nurse John Paul for an hour before the nurses stepped in to take his vitals. |
| 7+ pounds of love! |
| Mommy got to hold John Paul for nine months. Now it is Daddy's turn! |
| Liz was hoping for a daytime birth with the midwife Dorinda (pictured above). She was blessed to have both! Dorinda founded the Birth Center almost two decades ago. |
| Dawn's first day as a delivery nurse, and John Paul, her first baby! |
| It was a happy and safe birth for both Mom and Baby. |
| Ready to ride home! |
| The older kids were asleep when we arrived home. Angeline had kept herself awake, and absolutely fell in love with John Paul that night, hugging him and patting his head. |
| John Paul sleeping on Elizabeth on the couch at home. John Paul is now about 16 hours old. |
| Grand-daddy and John Paul. |
| Angeline is in love with her baby brother and demands to hold him before everyone else. |
| Finally, Olivia gets a chance. Olivia sang sweetly to John Paul and actually put him to sleep. Meanwhile, Angeline looks on. |
| John Paul and Logan. Logan is thankful to have a brother! |
| After helping out all day, Grandma finally gets a chance to hold the new baby. |
