Welcome, Jack!














Praise God from whom all blessings flow!!!

Announcing John ("Jack") Oliver Breitenstein, named John after father and grandfather, and Oliver meaning peace. He's weighing in at 8 lbs 12 ounces "standing" 20 3/4 inches tall.

This barrel-chested guy has thighs like a turkey leg, and huge hands! He's got bright blue eyes and a full head of dark hair, though taking in the pale brows and lashes, we might have another blondie! Taking after the whole peace (Oliver) motif, he seems pretty laid back. Jack is healthy and we're both doing great; we came home yesterday!

Thanks for all the prayers.

Congratulations! Little Jack is so adorable! Wish I could be there to snuggle him myself, but I'll just have to let you give him a couple extra snuggles for me :u)

I am anxious to cuddle little Jack. He is very fortunate to be born into your precious family. Children are such a blessing.
