I thought everyone would like to see the newest addition to our family. Andrew Carter Elam. He weighed 8 pounds 10 ounces and was 22 inches long. He was born on 04/25/2008. My water broke around 1:30am Friday morning. It was a rough time. I had to have a c-section. He was having a hard time with the contractions. He is healthy and happy. He is a good baby. Not much fussing. His brothers are having a great time with him. It is an amazing experience. We are truly blessed.

    What a doll! He looks so precious. I’m glad you and Andrew are both doing fine. I hope his older brothers will be helpful with the baby so you can get some rest. You have a very beautiful family.
