Baby Face

After 8 long days of waiting, Ellea finally got her hands on the newest baby in the family.

William Henry Kaufman was born early Saturday, January 14th to Steve and Christina (and big brother, Ben). This big boy weighed 9 lbs, 10 ozs. His mama looks fabulous. Even after experiencing childbirth three times over, I'll never fully understand how the human body can go through such trauma and bounce back so quickly. It's a miracle in so many ways!


Ellea insisted that she be first to hold him! She nearly refused to let Nicole and I have a turn.

He has quite the "old man" wrinkles when he screws up his face! Sure hope he doesn't do any permanent damage!


Nicole had a brief turn, but she was happy to get to hold him. She likes babies in small doses.


I had to insist on getting a turn to snuggle William. No, Ellea was happy to let me snuggle him--for about 5 minutes, and then she was determined to take him back! As you can see, Ellea was never far away when someone else was holding him!
