Introducing Micah William Thompson!!

Our precious gift from God came into the world on Tuesday, July 15th at 3:24pm weighing in at 8lbs., 5 oz. and 20 1/2 inches long. He has beautiful blue eyes, reddish blond hair and is already very alert. We can't put into words how amazing and wonderful these last few days have been, what an experience. And we can't wait for you all to meet him soon! Here are some pictures to show you our world the last few days:Glen with Dr. Frields who delivered Micah Finally going home, yay!

"Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD, the fruit of the
womb is a reward." Psalm 127:3

Oh Where Oh Where is our little man?



Since it seems easiest to update everyone in this way, we thought we would go this route! Thank you for all the thoughtful phone calls and e-mails, sorry if we haven't been able to keep in touch as much as we would like. We did have our Dr. appointment this last Wednesday and he had us hooked up to a fetal monitor to make sure everything was going okay and sure enough our little man is healthy and strong JUST doesn't want to enter the world quite yet! Our Dr. would like us to come back on Monday morning, which would put us about a week overdue. As of now, we are waiting until our appointment on Monday to decide anything. Until then, we are reminded of Psalm 37:7, "Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for Him." We are certain he will be WORTH the waiting :). Love you all!

STILL Waiting

Glen and I have come to the realization that our little man is getting way too comfy in my tummy :). We are "officially" full-term and today we have a check-up with our doctor. We'll continue to keep you posted! Hopefully he will enter the world very soon :).

Waiting...

Some of you have been asking us if we've had our baby yet and the answer is nope! We are due anyday now and we can't wait to see our little man :). Thank you for all the prayers, e-mails, phone calls and text messages-we'll definitely keep you posted!! Hope each of you have a Happy 4th of July! Farewell until the B.I.R.T.H.~

Oh, I had to include one pic of Daisy and cute baby Aubrey when her and mommy Jen paid us a visit today. Daisy liked Aubrey very much...as you can see her here licking her toes. Aubrey didn't seem to mind a bit-ha ha. We love our sweet Daisy girl!

Vacation Bible School

Greetings! Glen and I held our 2nd VBS at Han Yang Presbyterian Church last week and all went well. We had about 25-30 children for three nights and the theme was Amazon Expedition. The children learned much about how God created the earth and how He made man in His own image. There were lots of games, crafts and on Sunday after church was the grand finale where we had a bounce house and watersports for the kids. One cool praise-I didn't go into labor!!
