This is Grant Robert Warren.
The last post was written and scheduled a few hours before my water broke at 2:00 am on Friday morning, May 30th and our baby was born 39 and a half hours later. It has been a busy week! Within the next 2 weeks I’ll be posting about the interesting experience. I’ll be posting on Instagram in the meantime. Then I’ll get back to more consistent posts later.
Thank you for all your enthusiasm and encouragement! We are so in love with this baby. What a steep learning curve.
P.S. Thank you for the surprise gift, Ashley!

Sam says
Christina you and the hubby made the cutest baby! Seriously, he is SO precious! I’m so glad he’s healthy and happy. I can’t wait to see more pictures of him! Does he have colored eyes?! One of my cousins is 1/2 Korean and 1/2 German and he is dirty blonde with green eyes, it’s crazy and I’m jealous haha.
Christina Warren says
AW Wow! Thank you, Sam!! Yes, healthy and happy! He has blue/gray eyes now and I hear that they can change over time. It is pretty crazy. I was surprised when I first saw them. My dad and Chris have blue eyes so it could happen. 🙂
