Well right after this sweet boy was born, he had to go to the NICU due to lots of fluid in his lungs. After several days of ups & downs with him....he is finally on the road to recovery & doing much better. He was one week old this past Thursday and his Mommy & Daddy got to hold him for the first time on Wed. I know it was such a precious moment for them & we have b een praying non-stop for sweet Finn & their family. Erin is one of my best & dearest friends....so it was very hard for me to know she was going through this very scary time & I couldn't be there because they live in Indianapolis. So Finn developed pneumonia, had to be on a ventilator, feeding tube & chest tube for several days.....but as of now, he is off of everything but the feeding tube & Erin is slowly getting to start breastfeeding him this week. Everyone's prayers have been working & they hope he will get to go home in about 5 days or so. Praise God for healing Finn!
Here are a few pictures of this baby boy who has been such a "warrior" (meaning of Finn)

When Erin & Dutch walked in the NICU to see him the other morning....the amazing nurses had left this note! Awwwhhhh....
He has regular clothes on & this adorable hat.
YAY!! Finn is off of oxygen now, too!
God Bless you guys & can't wait to see Finn go home very soon! Go Finn GO!!
