Baby TStew
 

I would like to sincerely thank everyone who prayed for my baby and family. Things were tough for us when he was born prematurely at 2 pounds and 5 ounces.
This pic was already posted here at the time of his birth:

It is actually impossible to tell how small he is in that picture but he was less than 2 1/2 pounds

The situation was very concerning, but God is faithful. People were praying for us all over the world. From the beginning he has progressed better than expected and has passed many hurdles and is becoming a healthy, happy baby. He currently weighs 11+ pounds (and counting). His name is Adan Isaac Stewart

About to come home. Still less than 5 pounds...I had to get a pic of him in a regular infant seat. We had to buy something to brace him in

Tstew,

He is a beautiful baby! I am so glad he is doing well. I can't imagine what a stress and strain this all must have been for you and your wife. Thank you for sharing these pics with us.

Re: Baby TStew
 

Thanks everybody. God is good and I am very thankful for what he has done for us in this situation. It was only a while afterwards that the doctors told us how precarious his situation really was. It was by the grace of God that had gone in for a routine ultrasound and they admitted her that day and worked on inducing labor. We found out later that even a week later would have likely been too late.

And yes, Cindy...he does have a few big Shepherds that one would have to contend with. :)

Re: Baby TStew
 

Oh my goodness.....he's perfectly beautiful! He has grown so much! Very happy to hear your little miracle is doing so well.

Re: Baby TStew
 

Awwwwww....... he is ADORABLE!!!!! So sweet!!

Re: Baby TStew
 

Bro. TStew, What a beautiful little boy and he looks like he is doing well. I believe I
mentioned back when your little boy was first born so prematurely. We had a little
granddaughter who was born prematurely at 29 wks and weighed 2 lbs, 3 oz. She was
in the NICU for two and a half months. Never had a setback and will turn 4 the 26th of
this month. She is strong and healthy, spoiled rotten of course. Her parents had two
sons, 12 and 15 when Lexie came along. They never dreamed they would have a little
girl and then it looked kinda hopeless at first. It was so scary and she was so tiny. But
day by day, God brought her through. Just as HE has and continues to bring your little
son through.

So happy your baby is doing well. May it continue, in Jesus Name!

Hugs for all three of you!

Re: Baby TStew

The first picture looks like he's saying, "When are you guys going to get me out of here!"

Your dog has certainly grown!!! It's beautiful!!!!! I'm jealous!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Baby TStew
 

Thanks for sharing these wonderful pics with us! He sure is precious! Congrats!

I kept looking at him in that carseat and trying to imagine him at HALF that size! LOL! It's hard to fathom how tiny he really was!

Re: Baby TStew

Re: Baby TStew

Re: Baby TStew

Re: Baby TStew
 

From the looks of these pictures, I know yall are going to church HARDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD at the baby dedication! I'll put a few laps in at my church for ya too cause God is sho nuff good!!!!!!!! Can I get a witness!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Baby TStew
 

Awesome brother! i sure hope to meet you one day.

Re: Baby TStew
 

Tstew I noticed in the last pictures he appears to be off of his oxygen. Is he permanetly off now?

I know from my great niece that was 1lb 7 oz that she had to have oxygen for at least a year, if I recall correctly. She had to learn to crawl with the cord following her.

She is now in 1st grade and only weights about 30 lbs. Tall and very skinny. She still can't eat much at a time without throwing up. But she is a miracle baby, and beautiful!

God is good.

Re: Baby TStew
 

You sir, are blessed with a beautiful chid!

Re: Baby TStew
 

What a beautiful baby!!! Just looking at him in that car seat brings a reality check!!! Just gorgeous!!

Re: Baby TStew
 

Thank you everybody. Just for the record, he does get his striking good looks from me :)

He is off of his oxygen and has passed many of the other hurdles. So far there has not really been any lasting effects or issues. He has caught up in weight and size and is very alert and active and interactive.

We're doing the baby dedication in a few weeks when my parents get in from Africa...and there will probably be a bit of a shockamoo.

Re: Baby TStew
 

What a beautiful baby. He's grown so much.

Re: Baby TStew
 

Dance like there's no tomorrow!!!! What better reason to rejoice!!!!

Re: Baby TStew
 

WOW! What a change from the first picture to the last! He is indeed beautiful (we'll start calling him handsome when he's a little bit older) little boy. What a treasure God has placed in your hands. You and your wife are in for some wonderful/fun years. Believe me, there's nothing like boys!!!

Re: Baby TStew
 

Thank you. Yeah, I guess we can go with beautiful for just a few more months:). I really appreciate the reminder that he is indeed a treasure from God. My wife and I unexpectedly lost our first baby and it was difficult to see this one having such serious difficulties. We will indeed embrace him.

Something about that last sentence tells me that you may be able to write a book about the boys and their "adventures". :)

Re: Baby TStew
 

Because his mother still has her looks. :thumbsup j/k

He's a handsome boy. Happy for you.
