Welcome, Matthew Jay VanDerLaan!






Matthew Jay was born today!
7lbs 15oz
19 3/4 in.
Active Labor began at 2:45 AM and was born at 7:12 AM. Matthew is healthy and Giselle is doing well. We're thankful to God, from whom all blessings flow! Thank you for all your prayers - we give thanks to God for you!
Matthew is quite special to us, of course, as our second child. After several miscarriages, the Lord led us through friends to find a doctor to keep the pregnancy healthy and a midwife to deliver Matthew at a homebirth.
Here are a few pictures so far - we're so blessed!!
