introducing. . .


Grayson Luke Mercado!!!

Born on Tuesday, June 24, 2014 at 4:25pm
7lbs, 3oz. and 19 3/4 inches

We are so happy he is here!!!!  Here are a few photos from his first few days of life:














After about two hours of active labor at the hospital, Grayson didn't want to waste anytime getting here.  After only ten minutes of pushing he came out (peeing on the doctor and Dada!!!) and joined us.  He caught on very quickly to eating and sleeping out here in the big world.  
Meanwhile, big sister was home with her Papa and calling the police on his cellphone!!!! I guess she wanted everyone to know that Grayson was here!! 

We love this sweet boy so, so much!! He is fitting right in to our little family of four.  And big sister is so sweet with him (minus a few reminders to be gentle and not give him fist bumps on his head or throw toys at him!!!). 
Here's a pic of the first time she tried to play with him and share her toys: 

What a sweet blessing it is to share life with these littles.  Looking forward to many adventures with them.
