New Baby Pics

May 14, 2013  David Murray   37 comments

I don’t know if anyone else is interested in this, but as Shona is coming home from hospital today and I’ve got about 2 minutes to get the house tidied, I thought I’d throw up some baby pics instead of writing a blog post. World, welcome Scot Lewis Murray!

And it’s all too much for this old man.

“Where’s Mom?” you’re asking. “Did she not have something to do with this?”

She’s not quite ready for public internet photos in her pyjamas! It’s an old people thing. Maybe tomorrow.

    Details, details! How much did he weigh? How long was he? Such sweet pictures. God bless you, dear Shona, and have a quick recovery. Many blessings to the eager siblings who await this little boy into their midst!

      Kim, can’t you tell it’s a man posting this when none of that information is forthcoming? ;)

      • http://philippians314.squarespace.com Kim Shay

        I was thinking that! If Shona had posted, perhaps we would know these details!

      Okay, okay. Details. Eh, quite light and quite long. You want more? 7lbs and 6oz. 49 somethings long (inches or cm?).

        Oh David, that cracks me up….49 inches long….That would make him over four feet tall…I am just picturing it….

    Beautiful. Nice work, David.

    It’s not an ‘old people’ thing, though it may be a ‘Scottish/Lewis’ thing, David!

    Who’d have thought a person could feel such love for a baby a whole continent away, who’s just been born, and who has only been seen in photos?

    Thanks for the photos. Methinks he looks like Angus.

  • Kyle

    What a blessing! Thankful for covenant children, and thankful that the promises of the gospel are not too narrow to exclude them!

  • Anne Marie Henderson

    What a lovely little man and methinks he’ll rule the roost, even if you have had the practice of 4 others, they’ll all be on his side! God bless you as a family and all my love to Shona, hope she’s making a good recovery.

    Dear Scot
    What a great blessing young man! You have been given great parents and siblings by our Lord. Please treat your mom and dad with special care, obey them and they will bring great joy to you and you to them. Say “well done” to mom and wish her all the best. Tell dad – great post!

  • CherylVT

    What a handsome young man! And already such personality in his eyes. I absolutely love the last picture. Praying for Shona’s healing. C-sections are not fun & take so much longer to recover from. =(

    Well to judge by the comments your implied suggestion that it would be all women clicking through was wrong. Congratulations David and Shona! But maybe all the women went away without commenting because you didn’t give the weight…

  • Flora Compton

    That’s quite a name! Congratulations and blessings to all.
