Thomas "Drew" Cantrell

BOY or GIRL has been the big question for the past 9months! On April 26, 2012 we welcomed Thomas "Drew" Cantrell. Drew weighed 8 lbs 11oz and measured 20.5 inches!We have been BLESSED beyond measure! Jennifer was able to be apart of the delivery and brought Jackson back to meet his baby brother. Jackson then made the BIG announcement while Marty showed off our beautiful new addition! During the stay at the hospital we were overwhelmed with joy over how God has blessed our family but we couldn't wait to get home to be with Jackson and start our new life as a family of 4! Drew had to stay an extra day due to jaundice and that broke our hearts. We were worried about him and missing Jackson. Since we could only see Drew every 3 hours we got out of the hospital and had lunch with Aunt Nancy, Paw, Mamaw, and Jackson! On Monday we were finally able to bring our baby boy home AND Jackson woke with fever! :( We spent the next couple of days adjusting to home with a newborn and going to visit Jackson! Thankfully the grandparents live next door so he was not far from home. FINALLY, on Wednesday he was able to come home! He has been the BEST Big Brother ever since! The next 2 weeks were spent loving on my boys!!! We are so grateful for friends and church family who provided meals for us so that we didnt have any worries! :)
