Bennett's Here!!!

Bennett Ezekiel Shauf made his grand entrance into the world today, January 17, 2008 at 4:01 pm. He weighed in at a whopping 8 lbs and is 20 in. long. We had a wonderful nurse in Labor & Delivery who grabbed the camera as soon as Bennett was born and took some wonderful pictures that we'll always cherish.

Emily found a website that has a "birth verse" for everyday of the year. We thought the one for Bennett's birthday was just right:

James 1:17 NIV

Every good and perfect gift is from above,

coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights,

who does not change like shifting shadows.
