Hadley Leann Rogers

Just wanted to share our good news. Camille and I are happy to announce the safe arrival of our new baby…
Hadley Leann Rogers
8 lbs 10 oz
20 in long
Born @ 4:50 pm
So where did the name Hadley come from? Hadley is a town in Massachusetts with the population of about 5,000 people. It has lots of colonial architecture and history. The town itself is over 300 years old. Because Boston is in Massachusetts we thought it would be fun to find another name from that state as we one day plan to introduce our kids to their city or town in the form of a family vacation.
Boston loved holding his new baby sister for the first time. He kept telling her "awake" which means "wake up so we can play." He was really cute with her.

We are very grateful to have two healthy children. We know that there are many children that don't make it through the fetal period or birthing process and some that even live just a few short hours. We know that there are some people that are not able to have children and some people that have lost children. We do not know the "why's" behind these circumstances but we do know that God grants life, allows trials and tests of faith and thankfully blesses us with joy in other ways. We want you to know that we are grateful for the gifts of joy that we have been given and understand that life is delicate and is often taken for granted. We hope to be able to love our children as much as you do, would have, will, or did love yours.
