Welcome Elijah Eric Rader!!!!!


He's finally here!!! I'll post our birth story a little later, but I just wanted to share a few pics for your viewing pleasure :) Elijah was born Saturday, November 11th at 10:08 p.m, weighing 7 Ibs 12 oz and measuring 20" long. He's absolutely precious!!!! And doing remarkably well...mom is too. I'll try to post our birth story as soon as possible, but no guarantees on how soon....crazy here, but I wouldn't have it any other way. I am so blessed to have such a perfect little family, and I am so thankful that I have another beautiful, healthy baby boy. Thanks so much for all your prayers and support...and a special thanks to Kayla for posting for me while in labor :)
