A new little boy!


Melanie (Hill) Baker had her little son, Nathan Bronco Baker, on January 28th at 3:07 a.m. He is eight weeks early and weighs in at 3 pounds, 8 ounces, and 16 inches long. Despite being born at 32 weeks, he is getting stronger every day. (The mothers of preemies will want more info: he is breathing on his own and beginning to tolerate larger feedings. He is jaundiced, so he is under the lights. He has a possible heart murmur and may need a blood transfusion at some point.) I'm sure Melanie will be posting more details soon on her blog, and I don't want to steal her thunder, but I wanted to share the news! Congratulations, Melanie and Riley, and my continued prayers and good thoughts for "Baby Bronco" and your family!! Love you guys!
