Elias Jack

So here I am 38 weeks, 4 days pregnant. I finally broke and had Zach snap a picture of me before pregnancy number 4 was over.

Wednesday, May 11th at 9:59am our son was born. He weighed 7lbs 15oz and was 20 inches long. Name? Umm......

Roland? What about Nolan? Let's ask people and see what they say.




And wow, he looks a lot like Cedric when he was born!



By the end of the first day about 50% of people polled liked Roland and 50% liked Nolan. Absolutely not helpful. In my drug induced state I decided to text some of my closest advisers for their opinion. I texted 6 girlfriends and 3 were for Nolan and 3 were for Roland. Eee gads people!


Zach and his mother spend a few hours that night pouring over names. The next morning, Zach shows up at the hospital with the name Elias, nickname Eli.





And it just suits him perfectly. So meet my sweet baby boy, Elias "Eli" Jack. Its so nice to have you in my arms and no longer fighting with my internal organs for space!

  1. Did you like Dan's text comment??

    Also, you did select a great name. How cool that you can say, "Your father found your perfect name!" rather than the interwebs or text friends.
