Welcome Eli Taylor King!


Welcome Eli Taylor King!! We are so proud to be parents of a healthy 7lb 10oz baby boy! He was born at 7:03pm on November 22nd, weighing in at 7lbs 10oz. So far it looks like Eli has darker hair than Emrey and Brown eyes -- much more like momma than Emrey got! He's been eating and sleeping really well so far, but his face got a little bruised up during delivery -- kind of like a rugger leaving the pitch!




Momma meets Eli

Becky was amazing!! We got to the hospital and she was already 9cm dilated! An hour and a half later Eli was here!! Becky is a superstar!


Dad is so proud - he will forever remember the moment he got to shout
"BOY!! It's a BOY Beck!"


Just after his first bath working those lungs - gettin' borned ain't no fun!





The next morning it was time for big sister Emrey to meet her little brother -- This was a very memorable moment when she realized the baby was really here...








HUGS!

Emrey calls her brother "Baby E-eye" - as in "Old MacDonald had a farm... E-eye, E-eye Oh"

Emrey immediately learned that one benefit of having
a younger brother is that she can take his stuff!


Very Curious...
What are they doing?
... and what is THAT?!!

And then there were 4!!




Please don't let me forget to post a video of their first meeting - it is a very good one!

We are so proud and excited, and we feel incredibly blessed to have two healthy children!! It has been an incredible 36 hours!!
