He's Here!!!

Elijah Jackson White has arrived!  After much anticipation, Eli is here!  As suspected, he came the day after Thanksgiving, but at least we got to eat some great food before the trip to the hospital.  The doctor decided to induce me because of an irregularity in his heart beat.  We went to the hospital Thanksgiving night and started the process.  By 6:55 on November 25th, Eli made his appearance.  As soon as they put him in my arms, all pain and worry disappeared, (at least for a couple of hours!)   He weighed 7 lbs and 4 oz and was 20 1/2 inches long.  The perfect size for the perfect baby. :-)

After he was born, they monitored his heart and did not seem very concerned, most newborns have an arrhythmia that disappears within a few days.  They did want to send him to the cardiologist to ensure he was healthy.   We went last Thursday and the cardiologist told us, before and after a few tests, that he has an innocent heart murmur.  As stated, it is completely innocent and means nothing to his health.  It will disappear within a few months.  Thank God for watching after him and blessing us with such a beautiful baby boy!
