Jude & Eli

These days when we read the Bible & pray with Jude before bed, he says his own prayer. But he doesn't quite know the difference between bedtime prayer and mealtime prayer, so he says:

"God... food... Jesus... Amen."

(translation: "Dear God, thank you for this food. In Jesus' name, Amen.")

Jude just turned 2 years old... 

And Eli turned 2 weeks old...

My two boys...

(why does Jude always have this "look" on his face whenever he holds Eli? He cracks me up.)

Our friends Jean & Charles stopped by on Sunday with some lunch. As much as I love the korean "seaweed soup" I've had to eat everyday, I thoroughly enjoyed the yummy torta they brought me! =) I can't wait for their baby to arrive. Just one more month! I hope he & Eli become good friends.

Hello Elijah

Our second son was born Tuesday at 10:49am. After all the possible concerns, our prayers were graciously answered with a healthy baby boy! What an exciting and amazing experience it was to go "au natural". Unfortunately, I was wrong THIS time about doctors always overestimating baby weights. After measuring me, my doctor said this one would be 6, maybe 7 pounds at most. Elijah weighed in at 7 lbs, 11oz! Yikes. Had I known this, I might not have been so eager to go without epidural. But in all seriousness, I couldn't ask for a happier ending... a healthy-sized, healthy-looking, healthy healthy boy.
