Baby Noah Arrives!

Hello everyone! Just wanted to update again, since Noah decided to arrive a little bit early (12 days to be exact). He was born on May 29, 2009 at about 2:30 p.m. He was 5 lbs, 13 ounces, and 19 inches long. His full name is Noah Michael Irwin.

Jay and I are so blessed to have this new edition to our family. We love little Noah more and more each day and consider him a gift from God. We pray to raise him up in the ways of the Lord and that God will use him for his purpose.

Practically, it has been of course difficult to adjust to being first time parents. But we're thankful because I have the whole summer off to take care of Noah and Jay has had the last two weeks off. Therefore, we have been able to work together to get the breastfeeding and sleeping schedule down (sleeping for Noah and for us). My mom and dad have been great in helping and we are so excited that Grandma Pamela is coming this Friday (June 12th) to meet her grandson and help out also.

Jay is still working at the Geek Squad and I am looking for a full time teaching position for the fall. Jay is also looking to go back to school for Web Development some time soon. Well, that's all for now, but I will be updating this as much as possible with new pictures. God bless,

Carrie (and Jay)
