As most of you know, Gage Westley Byerly was born on June 13th 2012 at 15:00 on a lovely sunny day. He weighed 7lbs. 8oz. and measured 20in. long. We are so thankful that Gage came before my scheduled induction date. We are thankful to all of our friends and family for the many prayers regarding a safe delivery and healthy baby. I must say that labor was indeed a painful experience, but all is forgotten and was worth enduring for my little Gage. I already cannot imagine life without my little love. Granted there are times when I feel like I am ready to break emotionally and physically, but then I am gifted a sweet look from my baby boy or that moment when he can only be calmed by me and melts in my arms, and that always thrills my heart and strengthens me in every way. I am also so blessed to have an amazing best friend, love, and husband. Bright Eyes has been an encouragement to me through the entire pregnancy, labor, and now the first weeks of being a new parent. He is honest , he helps me to pull through the hard stuff and he loves me, and has faith in me even when I am frazzled and unsure of my mothering skills. I have two great guys, and of course a great dog who has also been very accepting of the new changes and baby Gage Westley.
