Welcome Elijah Lee Clarkson!!!

On Saturday, 8/25/07 at 8:05am, we welcomed Elijah into the world!! He weights 8 lbs. 6 ounces and is 21 inches long. He is a handsome fellow and after around 12 hours of labor at the hospital, and small contractions starting after midnight on Thursday and getting to the point of going to the hospital at around 8pm on 8/24, he is here!!! I will post my birth story later as pictures are the most important right now :) Enjoy!!

A proud daddy and VERY tired mommy


Isn't he handsome....and big!!


Meeting Grandma Clarkson....

and Grandma Bidney!

See those long fingernails? Due to him being overdue, he has wrinkly hands & feet, dry skin and long nails! That's what he gets for staying in so long! (Just kidding ;)

We'll post more later! He is very healthy and has been such a good boy so far! We are so excited!!

elijah07Just was going back to Eli's birthday, just think how much he's grown and changed, and to think that a year ago he wasn't on the way! He certainly was in our hearts! Love you all, Mom/Grandma
