It's 2:30 AM Central and Jennifer Dostalik just phoned. She's is in labor and on her way to the hospital. Please keep her in prayer. Hopefully I'll have joyous news to post soon. (I certainly can't sleep now!)

Jennifer called again and she's happy to announce that Anthony Joseph was born at 3:25 AM weighing 8 pounds and 5 ounces. She had him within half an hour of arriving at the hospital. I told her that I posted on the message board but that she didn't give anyone a chance to pray for her.


Jennifer asked everyone to pray. There was meconium in the amniotic fluid so they took little Anthony away for 30 min-1 hour of observation. Her husband, Bill, went with the baby and it all seems like just a formality, but Jennifer was sad and lonely by herself wanting to nurse her new baby.

Not yet. Jennifer is supposed to call right about now, so I'll post as soon as I hear from her.

Jennifer called and there were no problems with the meconium. Everything is great and he is already nursing well.

Bill emailed me 2 pictures. They're on my blog. I'm sure Jennifer will be posting more when she's back home.

Welcome Little Guy!
