It’s a Boy!

It’s a boy!  Hudson Jeremiah Torrens

Hudson because it just sounded like a “strong” name.  We wanted our child to have strength and knew our child would be strong throughout anything!

Jeremiah because of Jeremiah 29:11 – “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future”

He weights 3140g / 6lbs 15oz born at 5:41pm MDT! YES! Gabby did awesome, my woman is tough, boys and girls!! When she was allowed to push, 6-7 contractions later Hudson and his full head of black hair were out! Since the last update she went to deliver in a few hours!

He looks a lot like Hayden when he was born with the pile of dark black hair on his head!

Hudson is off in the “Stock Transport Unit” in an ambulance with a great team now on his way to NICU at University of Alberta. The NICU team here at Royal Alexandra were great as well as all the nurses and the doctor that helped deliver!

Hudson looks AMAZING and mommy had lots of time to bond with him… about 45 minutes! More than anyone anticipated. Thank you for your prayers! He looks really good and his initial oxygen levels are at approximately 85-90% which is great! He even is pinkish vs. the bluish color we were all expecting. Everything looks good and he is stable. At NICU at Stollery they will do the echocardiogram since it is easier now that he is out.

Pictures to come!! Thank you Lord for this precious gift you have given us and thank you all for your prayers for a safe delivery and healthy mommy and stable Hudson! They were all answered!

Love
–Torrens clan of now 5!

    Praise The Lord Chris and Gabby. We are continuing to pray, as now the real tests are yet to come. Please keep us all updated as to the date of the first operation, as we will pray all of you and the team of Dr.s through the surgery, but we continue to pray that he will not need the operations at all. Our prayers are for miraculous healing, and we continue to believe God is about to show Himself in the most awesome way.
    Not sure if you know one of the most awesome Missionaries was Hudson Taylor. He cut the pattern for so many missionaries. He was an incredible missionary to the Chinese people. When you get back to an Alliance Church, I’m pretty sure you will find at least one book about Hudson Taylor. Hudson Jeremiah is well named. Jeremiah 29:11 is the verse I claim as my life verse. I to found it during a very difficult time in my life, and God’s word in this verse has carried me through many dark days since then.

    Dear Lord as this precious little one lays sleeping we pray that you will safely guard him, and rock Him gently in your arms. His name is, Hudson Jeremiah Torrens, thank you for bringing him safely into this world. We praise you for his life which you have given. You have knit him together in his mother’s womb, (Psalm 139:13)and we pray that you will completely heal his heart. We dedicate Hudson Jeremiah to you today in prayer, we ask you to make him a mighty strong warrior for God. We know that you have an amazing awesome purpose for Hudson Jeremiah’s Life and we praise you Lord for what you are going to do in his life. In Jesus Name We Pray. AMEN

    Can’t wait to meet you Hudson!

  • Denis Segura

    Our God is good, we live in His amazing garce. Thank you guys for keeping us updated, Hudson Jeremiah is so handsom. Tell him I am very proud to be his uncle and to text me his brand of chocolate so I can start spoiling him.
    Love you Nephew, be good.

  • Ivana Miranda

    WOW… Congrats! This truly takes me back to when our little Angel Hailey was born. Hudson has it in him. With everyones prayes…. amazing! hold on tight the road will be long, grab a book and read it to Hudson. Take his heart rate down, and let him know you are there! Hold him when ever you can, and always tell him you love him. Trust the doctors, and be there for the rounds… this way you will know what is really going on. Rounds normally happen between 8-9am, unless they have changed things.

    Please me if you need anything. Astrid should be by to see you anytime. Take care, and pleaes know the angels are with you….. I have asked my Mom to watch over you all.

    Thinking of Little Hudson and your Family Always.

    Nancy
