Griffin... l.o.v.e. that! How precious. I will be praying for you as you make this transition and change, and as to Big Brother... he will fall right into the groove before you know it. :)

Jess! He is absolutely beautiful. I love his name. And I'm sure Levi will adjust in no time.

Yay, congratulations to such a precious family! I have followed your blog since December 2008 and thought it was time to join since I have been praying for you nearly 3 yrs. :) A friend in our Colorado church told me about you (same church as Gracie & Richard Trast). Anyway, I am so happy for the two of you..and your beautiful little boys! (I also see Cora in Griffin, maybe it's the hair)
OHHHHHH Jess he is JSUt beautiful! How wonderful it must be to have him in your arms ( after 40 weeks they all feel better out than in!)
Praise Jesus!
Congratulations!!!!! He's beautiful!! Love the name!!
This is my first comment on your blog, but I am an avid follower. Griffin James is as beautiful as he can be. My first reaction was, Wow, he looks like sweet Cora with that dark hair and those cheeks! His name is precious. I am from a small town called Griffin, Georgia, so I'm a bit partial to his name. I am so thankful that I just randomly stumbled upon your blog two months ago and I have been following ever since. As so many people before me have said, you are such an inspiration to so many and I thank God for you and your family. I may never get to meet you in this lifetime, but I am so thankful that I "know" you. God bless you and your entire family (in heaven and on earth) with this wonderful new addition of Griffin James!
What a beautiful baby! Congratulations! Griffin is such a cute name!
Wonderful news, congratulations on the arrival of your third child.
Welcome to the world, Griffin James.
So precious. Congrats! You have adorable children :)
Congratulations to you and your family. Griffin is perfect and I love his name. I'm sure Levi will love him too.
I'm a long time reader and I think you have a wonderful family and that you are an amazing mother!
Again Congratulations and take care of yourself.
Absolutely perfect! Congratulations!
Oh Jess! When I saw the title of this, I started crying. God's mercy is sweet! (congratulations!!) And then when I saw Griffin's picture, I got goosebumps: he looks so much like his big sister to me. I love that.
May our gracious Father bless all of you as you rest, revel in newness of life, and start the adjustment process.
You are prayed for and loved by so many people! (you and your family, too!)
love the name and that sweet face!
Love the name Griffin! So cute! Congratulations!!!
Welcome baby Griffin!!!! Your auntie Laura loves you very very much. You are the perfect mix of your momma, dadda, beautiful sister, and big brother. I see them ALL in your sweet face and I can't wait to kiss your big cheeks (BEVERLIN!)!!! You are perfect, cherished, prayed for, and loved.
Congratulations sweet friend! He is beautiful! enjoy! enjoy! enjoy!
God is so good.

Welcome to the world baby Griffin!! Blessings to you and your family :)
I already sent a "congrats" comment but I just clicked on your blog while running through my nightly ones and I saw the picture again I was surprised at how much he resembles the beautiful Cora!! Just from her pictures that you've shown of course, but he's just a gorgeous newborn and I had to comment again about the Cora resemblance!
Oh goodness he is precious. Congrats!!! Love his name, too!
Congrats :) Love his name!
He's just gorgeous! Congrats!
He's beautiful. Congratulations!
Congrats! I'm curious about the name! I love it and it is on our short list of baby boy names (if we were to ever have another boy). It is my mother's maiden name.
Congrats on your handsome bundle!
Funny how the dates turned out.
September 20th is the birthday of my twin girls (they just turned 7). We get to celebrate with them :)
And, Cora was born on the exact same day as my son Nathan (3/5/08) and I know that they celebrate together in Heaven.
Congratulations and enjoy!
Hugs,
Trisha

Congratulations to all of you!
Congrats! He shares a birthday with my hubby! :) It's a great day! Great weather and a little after the busy time of school starting and not too hot, not too cold yet. :)
Oh, how wonderful! Big congratulations to all of you!!! I'm so happy to read the news, and I pray for a quick adjustment for each of you. :)
So happy for all of you. What a beautiful baby. I can't believe how much he looks like Cora in this picture. Best wishes to all of you and don't worry, Levi will be the best big brother in no time.
Hugs to everyone!
Congratulations!!! He is beautiful!
Congratulations! He's beautiful! :)
Congratulations Mac family! Griffin is just beautiful and perfect, and I'm sure big brother will be in love in no time! My youngest 2 boys are 20 months apart and the very best of friends/partners in crime! ;) God Bless over all of you as you transition to having 2 little ones in your house at the same time. I'm certain Cora is smiling down on all of you, loving you from above! Can't wait to see more pics!
So beautiful..he looks so much like Cora. Your family is so blessed.
Hooray and a hearty congratulations on your new beautiful bundle of boy!!!!! When I first saw the photo it took my breath away how much he resembles your sweet baby angel Cora! Wow!!! Sooooo precious and just a blessing! Enjoy this special time and rest as much as you can. I think his name is just awesome!! My son has James for a middle name too and your little man was born on the same day as a sweet girl I used to babysit but also has her angel wings too, maybe she and Cora are rejoicing together?! Continuing to pray for you all!
Ahh! He's such a chunky monkey!! Congratulations to you and Joel and Levi! :)
CONGRATS! He's beautiful! So happy for all of you!
Congratulations! Griffin is so very sweet, and he was born on my birthday! :) Praying for smooth transitions, and some sleep for all of you!
Congrats. Love the name. He looks absolutely scrumptious in this photo - love the cheeks :-) I'm curious if you had a fast labor - I know you posted on Tuesday, so I'm thinking it was fast??? (the labor and delivery nurse in me speaking)
Blessings to your sweet family!
AHHHHH!! He is so beautiful!! LOVE his name!! And yes, Levi will warm up to him! Congrats! Savor every little newborn fog moment!!
Adorable! Enjoy every minute!
Oh he is beautiful! Love the name!! Congratulations...God is SOOO GOOD!!!
So happy for your and your family. I still cry reading your blog.... these are happy tears :)
Congrats!!! My older son wasn't very fond of his new brother for the first eight months & now they play together all the time so don't stress if Levi doesn't think he's all that great right away.
Congratulations!! He is beautiful!!
He is sooooooo sweet! congratulations and we are sending all our love to you!:)
