Praise

Well, I'm a little late blogging about our new little man, but it's been awfully busy around our house and blogger has not been my friend.  This little guy definitely deserves his own timely post, so maybe he'll consider 13 days after his birth "timely."  We won't tell him differently.  :)
 
We welcomed Judah Jackson Hill into our family on Friday, August 17th.  We are SO thankful to have him here with us. He is happy, healthy and much loved by his siblings. 
 
All who know us obviously notice we have given our children biblical names.  For us, it's just a neat way to give our offspring names that mean something.  Since we never could agree on any "family" names, we decided the Old Testament would be our starting point.  :)  For those who wondered:
 
Judah \j(u)-dah\ as a boy's name is pronounced JOO-dah. It is of Hebrew origin, and the meaning of Judah is "praised". Biblical: Judah was the fourth of Jacob's 12 sons.
 
We certainly are full of praise to have Judah here with us every day!
 
 
Since blogger has not been friendly about letting me upload photos, two will have to suffice for now.  Here is a photo of us in our going home outfit (Thanks, Ms. Amanda!)...

 
...and here is a picture of the whole crew right before our release from the hospital!  Thanks to everyone for your prayers and love for our family!
