Baby Elliot Alexander

It's been a long time since I have been able to blog, so I'm going to try to catch up. Baby Elliot (Lio) was born back on June 11th around 3:30 a.m. We went to the hospital the previous morning at 7 a.m. and spent the day smuggling food from the cafeteria and watching cheesy daytime t.v. Midwife Sue broke my water around 12A.M. when I was dialated around 7. We had Elliot a short time later - healthy and quiet and around 8 lbs 9 ounces.

Elliot's first check up with Dr. Ben Zion showed that he was a little over 9 lbs and 21 inches long. . the same size that Logan was when he was first born. After being examined, they found that he is perfect and that he does infact have all of his fingers and toes.

So far, now six weeks, Elliot enjoys being slung in his Moby Baby Sling, nursing, and being rocked. He also enjoys floating in his Grandma's pool and visiting her chickens.
