Announcement: Becky just called me to tell me that Rowan is alive and kicking. They have been at the hospital all night and been awake all night. Jennifer is comforted at the hospital with SteeleMama, Balder, her sisters and Cale. Cale is handling the video, and they have photos to share at a later time. Rowan was born at 8:17am, and weighed in at 7 lbs. He has curly hair, but they aren't sure on the color.

:clap_1::clap_1::clap_1: Big hugs to the Steele and Saunders families! :wub:

Welcome to Florida, Rowan!

9-10 weeks. Seems like a LONG time. :roll: Happy to see that steeleing1 wasn't late!!

Well, she was induced, so who's to say when he might have arrived!

OK!!! I am back at the Lodge finally after a wonderful day in Fort Walton. First of all...no red hair....that was a false report I believe started by Daddy Brown. Hair appears now to be dark but will probably lighten up. He is one gorgeous child! Much like his brother. Will post the pics I have soon. Maybe tonight if I can get it together. Mom did great! So did Dad! Will return to FW tomorrow after I take Grayton Kid to school for his first day. Thanks so much for all the good wishes. He is sooooo cute!

Congratulations! :wub:

Two handsome grandsons! :clap_1: Counting your blessings + 1 is always such a good thing!

Wow.. what a pretty baby! (It's okay to call boys pretty until they're like, 2.. right?)
Congratulations on the adorable addition to your family! :wub:

Little Rowan's gonna get lots of love and smootches when I get my hands on him :wub:

When do they get to come home?

Mom and baby are doing great today! Dad will bring them home tomorrow by noon. Did I mention he is soooo cute! I took GK to school today and he said he wished he could put Rowan in his lunch box. Ohhhhhhhh!
Good night! It is thundering here at Grayton.

Hey everybody! Thanks for all your kind words. We are having a wonderful time with the new little guy - he's absolutely precious even though he keeps us awake all the time, either feeding him or just staring at him. I have many more photos to post, and I'll try to do that asap.

Thanks! I know you are so happy to be holding this guy in your arms! Good job Mom and Dad! I know GK is the best big brother ever! Congratulations to you all and we're looking forward to more pictures of all of you. :clap_1:
