One week birthday!
Jonathan is eating well and sleeping well...just not long enough for Mommy and Daddy! We are very blessed by Jonathan - "gift from God." Sarah and I have both thought that God's grace (undeserved favor; gift) is certainly demonstrated through him.
Jonathan does appear to have some lack of mobility with his left arm. The doctors noticed this immediately after they took him for observation, testing, etc. He can squeeze with his hand and shrug with his shoulder; however, he cannot hold his left arm up. His pediatrician told us not to be concerned since he has seen many cases similar to Jonathan's. The doctor mentioned a group of nerves near the shoulder (forgot the name) that may be pinched or something. We may have to go through some physical therapy with him; however, that is not in the immediate plans at this point.
It is hard to believe that he was born just one week ago today. In some ways, it seems like it hasn't been that long. In other ways, it seems like he has been with us for much longer.
Faith continues to be a big helper for Sarah while I am working. We are both very proud of her.
That's about all for now. I will try and keep this blog updated with pictures as often as I can.
