On Sunday, September 21st Marshall Henry Hall made his grand appearance into the world. After giving his mom a full day of hard labor that the epidural didn't help with - he was delivered via C-section on Sunday evening. Not surprising to those that know his mother that he may be following in her stubborn footsteps! He was 8lbs. 3 1/2 oz. and 21 in. and is darling as expected.
I was lucky enough to sneak away after work on the Monday after to spend a few hours with Mandy, Dave and her family at the hospital. We all fussed and fought over who would hold him when and laughed as we did so. It was great to be there and share in such a wonderful day!
Mandy and Dave are doing well, we were able to see them just a few days short of Marshall's one month birthday this past weekend. We walked with them and other family and friends in Columbus's Light the Night. Team Hall participated in the walk to support and raise money for Leukemia & Lymphoma research. Dave & Mandy were touched with the support and we all walked with teary eyes as we remembered the unfortunate reason we were all together that evening. We continue to pray that Dave's treatment remains effective and that in April of 2009 he will be declared in remission for as long as possible.
Here are some pictures of Marshall in the hospital!
