4:39am on Sunday


That's when our NEW baby was born!  A boy! I had thought baby would be a girl.  Now I think it's just because we had settled on a girl name, whereas we hadn't decided on a boy name yet...

His name is Elijah!  8 lbs. 2 oz. of cuddles.  I really thought that he was going to be over 9 lbs. which he probably would have been if he had been born in October.  Apparently babies gain about a half a pound each week towards the end.  

  • George was 9 pounds
  • Paul was 8 lb 3 oz 
  • Olivia was 7 lb 11 oz
  • Hannah was 7 lb 2 oz

I'll share more in a few days.  We have visitors coming this morning!
