well, we might just have to arrange some personal delivery to Fl Hosp. but I think since Laura is the only one that has done work today that only she should get some food.

Congratulations, guys! Benjamin looks just like dad with that hairline. Now that the real work is done, you can go about the easy task of raising 2 boys to know and love the Lord. They'll be wrestling with each other before you know it!

Gotta run to Outback...

Shane, Virginia, and our 3 boys Jordan, Shane Jr and Lance

Laura & Howard,
Benjamin is so perfect...ok, we're sure he has original sin, but it's not evident in those gorgeous pics. We also loved watching the rooster and first steps video of Cooper. He is the most smiley child! His face says,"I am loved and special." Laura looks too beautiful in her c-section pics...glowing. Howard isn't beautiful, but you look 2 sons proud!!! Blessing, Julie, Damian, Matt, Sophie, Joshua and Caleb Cook.

We love and miss you guys,

Meagan and Chase

Congrats Howard and Laura!

If Benjamin turns out half as cute as Cooper, you'll have the cutest non-Chinese family around!

We are rejoicing with you!
