Today Shane will have all 4 wisdom teeth removed. The dentist said they should have come out over a year ago and the roots are longer than he has ever seen on a 15 year old. They are expecting a difficult surgery.

Also.... we just found out that Andrew and Jackie will be parents in the next few hours (or days???). Labor began early this morning, yesterday at her regular OB appointment she was at 2 cm. Contractions are at 7 mins right now so they are still at home. They will head to the hospital when the contractions are regular at 5 mins. The baby is measuring very large so there is a possibility of a C-section.

Please, pray that baby, Andrew Jaxon Gray, arrives quickly and easily as well as healthy!!! Also, pray that Shane's surgery goes well and he has minimal discomfort.

Thank you!!

Shane is home and sleeping. Surgery went well, much easier than expected. He was so funny when he was coming to!!! Wish I had the video camera with me :)

Still no word from Andrew yet.

Andrew Jaxon Gray was born at 11:07 p.m. He is 22 inches long (no official weight yet) Mom and baby are both doing great and daddy sounds beyond excited!!! We will post pictures as soon as we get some. A.J. and parents are needing some serious rest after a long hard labor.
