Introducing:
Nathaniel James Pryor
He was
born 6.5 weeks premature, and doing well for a baby his age and size.
So, he was a big surprise and couldn't wait to get out! Jocelyn had
a fast active labor period...about 4 hours start to finish. Jocelyn got help with
the pain and faced it all like a true champ! I cut the cord and he
was sent off to the special care nursery...where he will remain for
another 2 weeks or more. We can't wait to bring him home!!! 
Till then please keep Nate in your prayers and thoughts! =)
