Early this morning (7/16) at 2:54 am Joshua Aidan Kelly entered our world! He’s 6 lb, 13 oz and 20 inches. He’s perfectly beautiful, healthy and possibly the cutest thing you’ll ever see. The birth mom is doing great and although it was a looooong day, once she got to the hard labor it went pretty quick!
If all goes as planned, in 48 hours the birth mom can sign the forms and we can leave the hospital! We are staying in Texas with some gracious hosts with the mosts and will be here for another week or two while we wait for Missouri to “give us permission” to return :)
Never fear, we’re taking a plethora of pictures! Here’s a few, guaranteed there will be many more to come :)
