Jonas is Here!

Well after the disappointment of not having Jonas on Friday, the Lord once again proved that it will all be done on His timetable. Sarah went into labor at church this Sunday, so we went into the hospital thinking it was nothing. Well about five hours later we had our boy delivered via c-section. Jonas Ethan Caruso was 6lbs 13oz and was 20 in long. He started out with some labored breathing, but has come along nicely, praise God! Sarah is doing wonderful as well, and has already taken quite a few steps walking around her room. Thank you all who have kept us in your prayers, we are confident that made a difference! Well this post won't be long. We are spending time at Methodist resting and getting to know baby Jonas. We would love for you all to meet him when we get home (probably Thursday). We have posted some pictures on Picasa, and I think you can get to them by clicking on the picture below.
