Important details we left out....
Elijah's weight at birth was 7 pounds, 11 ounces. He was 20.5 inches long. All the nurses remarked on how "perfect" that is. Another tidbit of info: from the very wrinkled hands and feet at birth, it appears that Elijah was at least one week overdue. He's 3 weeks old today and had his first bath yesterday. He seemed to enjoy the warm water - spit up twice and peed once in the process. :) Contending with his bodily fluids is a full-time job.
