On the evening of Sunday, March 29th 2026, much too soon, we welcomed our second son and Ronan’s little brother, Halvor Noble Lines (Hal for short) into the world. Labor began prematurely in the middle of the night, and there was nothing anyone could do to stop it from progressing. After a devastating day of waiting, our little baby boy arrived sleeping soundly. 

Hal was tiny and precious, with the sweetest little nose and long toes. He was perfect in every way, he just arrived much too soon. We’re so grateful we got time with him in the hospital to hold and snuggle him.
