Newborn pictures

This picture is of Eli being weighed the night he was born.


The photographer came when Eli was 9 days old and did newborn photos. These are the ones we've seen so far, and I'm sure I'll be posting more when she finishes editing them.

He's here!



Elijah Daniel was born at 8:01 pm on September 2. He weighed in at 7lbs 12 oz. and is 19 3/4" long. The birth was very, very different from our last two at home, (I'll write up the full story soon) but Eli and I are both doing beautifully. The kids are totally enamored with him...Mia especially.

Joe was amazing labor support during the birth...Deb (our midwife) commented several times how attentive and tuned in to my needs he was.

We are thanking God for our new little boy, and all the wonderful people that helped him get here!
