He's finally here!

Samuel Clark Riddle was born August 16th, at 11:24PM on his official due date. He shocked everyone by being 9 lbs 1.5 oz, and 21 3/4 inches long!


Samuel had a rough start, having swallowed a lot of meconium in utero and requiring some oxygen when he did finally come out. He had to spend several days in the special care unit on fluids and antibiotics. Thanks to many prayers, he recovered quickly and is now home with us and thriving.


We are adjusting to being new parents and the lack of sleep, but are so thankful that Samuel is healthy and doing well. He brings us joy and wonder each day.
