I really like before and after pictures, so here's a few fun ones. This is us with Doc before, as you can see by the baby belly.
Here we are after Elijah was born! How fun to see the baby inside and then outside. Amazing!
Here we are in the front yard in front of the tree. It was just budding on the day we went to the hospital, and you can see the baby belly.
It was so symbolic to come home from the hospital and the tree had blossomed, just like our family! Ahhh! Now I am wearing the same shirt but our baby is in the world! Wow! You can tell we like blue.
Thank you, Lord, for our son! We love him so much and we love each other. We love you, Lord! Ah, so much love flowing out!
Aunt Sarah bought Elijah a special sign for his homecoming. Later during his first week home I thought we could put him in the little buggy here. So cute!
During his first week, Elijah and Mommy rested a lot. Daddy helped with changing diapers and carrying things. He bought supplies and brought food to Mommy. As soon as Mommy began to heal, Daddy took us on family walks. A little bit every day! These are special times. I'm so glad it is May and spring is here!
Daddy also helped with Elijah's first bath! Clean boy and strong, tender Daddy hands.
On the eighth day of Elijah's little life, we went to the Post Office to apply for his passport. It was great that the only time his eyes were opened that day was when he was getting his passport picture taken (good for five years). Wow! Good job, little Elijah. You will soon be a world traveler!
