Family Time

Owen isn't the only new baby in the family! James' brother, Jacob, and Laura's sister, Kimberly, also recently added kiddos to the mix. We are excited to think about Owen growing up with cousins similar in age. It has been a blast seeing our parents as grandparents (several times over), and our siblings as parents, aunts, and uncles!

Babyberg becomes Owen Graham!

Laura and I are ecstatic to announce the arrival of Owen Graham Rosenberg, coming in at 7.7lbs, 19inches, and two weeks early! He was born at 11:54 PM on Thursday, April 14th (2016). We are absolutely in love with this little guy and can't wait to watch him grow up. Owen is nursing well, sleeping well, and pooping well. What else can we ask for?!

Laura is recovering excellently! She is still in pain as expected, but taking the necessary rest to recover. We are grateful for Laura's parents for opening up their home to us as we learn to do life together as a new family of 3. We are so in love with our little guy!

The Countdown

We're counting down to our baby's due date!

This Thanksgiving

Laura and I have something extra special for which to be grateful this Thanksgiving. We are expecting!

After years of hoping for a child, we are flat out overjoyed. Laura is already 18 weeks along, and we are excitedly planning for "babyberg" to arrive this spring! The due date is April 27th, 2016--only a few days after Laura's own birthday. (Not a bad birthday present, eh?)

We hope to return to the States this March in time to deliver in Ohio. Meanwhile, we are making the most of our Thailand visa runs to get Laura good prenatal care. So far Laura and babyberg are doing great, but please join us in prayer by asking The Father for continued good health and protection for them both!

Thanks for sharing our joy and excitement.

Earth Movers in Asia

Our little nephew, Tobin, is currently fascinated by big trucks, excavators, and the like. While this video was made expressly for fun and for him, we thought some of the rest of you might find construction in East Asia interesting too! Enjoy.
