Elliott Bowen Wood- 9/14/2012

Elliott was 8 lbs and 21 inches long








My mom got a flight to Arizona as soon as she heard that we were getting induced. Elliott was able to wait long enough to allow her to get there for his birth. She made it with an hour to spare.
 He got a little bit of a bruise on the back of his head from delivery. This little bruise caused him to stay in the hospital for a couple of extra days under the bilirubin lights. But it's already gone away and he is doing great.

Adam didn't get much sleep the first night on the extra comfortable chair pull out bed, so he snuck a few minutes on the bed the next morning.
He's definitely got big feet and toes that could be mistaken as fingers.



 He doesn't have much hair, but what he does have is strawberry blonde and extremely fuzzy.

  1. thanks for the upload! Eli looks kingly. Proud of you kids, thought Scout was the death knell for my niece/nephew tally :) Y'all are tied with my other siblings for best qualified parents in the world.

  2. Wow! For a second I was trying to figure why you rolled him into a ball so you could get a weird shot of one foot and one hand. You are right about those toes. I am excited for you guys. I must say it is a little crazy to see you (Adam) holding your own kid. You are going to be great!
