Abram Joshua Dik!He was born at 8:13am on Friday, September 12; 7 lbs. 13 oz., 20.75 inches. Both mom and baby had a good delivery experience and are doing well. Mom is pretty exhausted, but here are a few pictures of our new bundle of joy!
The night before Abram arrived...I know, I am huge.
Minutes after being born...look at those big feet! I was actually able to see the instant of Abram being born (by c-section)...they pulled his head out and instantly he started crying! As they pulled the rest of him out, he was kicking his legs and flailing his arms. The doctor said he entered this world "kicking and screaming!" What a kid. :)
Weighing in...
Not loving the stethoscope...
Mommy...still all hooked up, but happy to finally be holding her little Abram.
Clean and dry after his bath, with his cute little knit hat from the hospital.
The big brothers...ready to meet baby Abram!
Grandma Sandy and Grandpa Jack meeting their 5th grandson!
Our Abram Joshua...the name "Abram" means "the Father is exalted." We give God all the glory for this precious little gift!
Lookin' around...
Daddy's kisses....
Smiling in his sleep...
Big feet and long toes...just like his Daddy.
Snuggling with Mommy.
Our new family of five!

I just looked at the first picture on the post again. Abram looks so alert. That makes him look so much older than a few hours or days! What fun!
CONGRATULATIONS! He is so adorable! Let us know if you need anything at all! We can't wait to meet Abram! Hope to see you soon!
What a beautiful baby boy! Congratulations Amy, Bryan and big brothers Eli and Silas.
Welcome Abram. You are adorable!
Lots of love and hugs and many blessings,
Rohit, Nicola & Nihal
